I'm a New Zealander but I'll be backing Argentina all the way unless they come up against the All Blacks.
 
Same here! Argentina aswell... hope they can do the Southern Hemisphere prowd!!
 
Samoa, for me
Always been a big fan, and many fan favourites from the Aviva play for them too (Tuilagi, Mapusua) so it's good to recognise a lot of names on the team list
Also had a few come through Sale over the years (Schwalger, Williams)





Got a soft spot for Wales/France/Italy, but apart from them it'll be the underdogs (like a few mins ago I was a passionate Romania supporter :p )
 
I support Tonga & the All Blacks but as the case was last night, when they play eachother, I'll always support Tonga.
 
ABs and any island team, Fiji, Samoa or Tonga. I think they'll cause a few upsets as per usual, atleast one will make the quarters, most probably Samoa at the expense of the Welsh. Hopefully Tonga gets up over the french and knock them out too. Go pasifika.
 
Am I right in saying most new zealanders will support Australia if the all blacks get knocked out??!?
 
Same here. I support the All Blacks but my second choice is Argentina. In other matches, always the underdog.
 
Hahaha, probably nooooot. Not with Quade Cooper in there anyway. Public enemy number 1 he is.
 
Haha do New Zealanders think of Quade Cooper as a traitor?? I think he's seen the light!!
 
Yeah, as with others hope the the under-dogs perform.

However, in particular I hope Canada do well, don't really know why, ay? Maybe 'cause they trained with the Scots prior to the tourney, shows something, ay?
 
all 3 island teams, except when Samoa play Fiji, then i'm only supporting Fiji. After that i support NZ, even though i'm half kiwi and was born and raised in NZ :D

I think the general consensus is that Cooper is a flat out Aussie. He was never in NZ, never born in NZ and those Maori tatts he's got are fake. Infact Tokoroa isn't even a real town. Think Aussie just like to say he's from NZ to explain the arrogance when reeeaalllyyyyy... :p
 
France strangely enough, funny that because they're the team I get the most pleasure from beating, hmm :huh:, and Samoa I suppose.

I take it you've never been to New Zealand, the Kiwis don't take kindly to you boys. I remember I was sitting outside Fergburger a few years ago after an Aussie/AB match, a Kiwi and Aussie were having a friendly chat beside me, the kiwi guys jokingly said "****ing Aussies" which the Aussie replied by punching the guy in the face queuing a mass Kiwi v Aussie brawl. It was brilliant.
 
For me it's USA and Japan. Hope both have fantastic tornements. Would love to see one or the other win two games. I also think Argentina have a lot of class. I'll also not miss a Fiji match, just because they are exciting.
