You're absolutely bat**** insane."In this particular instance I don't see how an informed, reasonable, objective viewer could say NZ were the better team overall, no".
I am not surprised that a fan might think his team is unlucky when they appear to be beaten in the last second, given the history of Ireland. It doesn't make it true though. The game goes for eighty minutes and what happens in the first 60 usually predicates the last twenty.
The Kiwis have been shell-shocked by the appalling paddocks they have had to play on, spies in their camp who lie about what they find, and that the rules seem to change from moment to moment on EOYT's. They were once again introduced to a stomach virus this week. Doesn't anyone know about hygiene in the Bleatingish Isles? They have won 11 matches on five continents in 3 months. Not a bad effort. It does surprise me that the Irish don't read their own newspapers though and have some appreciation for their nemeses. The article below, written before the game, may edify them"
In 2001 McAwe played his first match, also at Choke Park, and the MIB were behind 21 - 7 at halftime. They blew the Choirboys away in the second half. Sound familiar?
Why don't they have neutral refers in all, EOYT matches. That a Celt can referee a home match for Celts is just not right. He threw away the rules for most of the match and finally remembered one at the end. How can you feel hard done by? In addition his plea for some evidence of a forward pass after the last try was scandalous. Video analysis of one Celt try and one Kiwi try shows that wrong decisions were made. (14 points).
There have been many studies at learned universities in Europe and N America that have patently demonstrated that referees are prejudiced against the All Blacks and favour England and Australia. This is why England and Australia have been able to win the lottery at the RWC and the only worthy champions, South Africa and New Zealand have not won every tournament. That the Opium Pushing Slave Traders and their Celtic colonies get the vast majority of votes at the Intensely Racist Brouhaha, adds to the difficulty of all countries with a larger proportion of brown eyes, winning matches at the RWC Lottery.
The article does not mention that the Redcoats, mostly Irish mercenaries, were beaten in NZ by warriors without artillery or small arms even before they routinely beat them at rugby.

Why won't this thread die? Won't somebody think of the children?
Yes, now back to school lads.
Genie.This should cheer the nation right up
Why have I suddenly got 'hero' playing without touching any links?
I don't understand the NZ mentality that if the ABs don't thrash their opponent the ref must have been biased against the ABs.
what more do you want? you haven't lost a game in 12 months!
