    @booboo maybe he thinks all Kiwis look the same, cos I'd say Crotty is more likely the guy that brings everything together, I guess its easy to see how he could mix those 2 up though.

    When Ive heard Woodward give analysis on rugby , im sometimes left scratching my head wondering how he got success

    He rode the coat-tails of Johnson, Wilkinson and co.

    This. He's a complete fraud of a man.

    Oh, this is bloody, gloriously priceless. Sir Clive Woodwhinge profiles the Teams and here he is on NZ.

    ""Key man: Tempting to say Beauden Barrett, their best player, but actually the man who cements the backs together is Sonny Bill Williams.

    Well I know everyone is eagerly awaiting the news, so I'll steal @antipodean thunder...

    The winner of the Parliamentary Rugby World Cup, by virtue of a golden try in overtime is... NZ.

    Thunder well stolen. Too busy drinking with the teams. Great game played in excellent spirit and genuinely nice guys. Looking forward to doing it all again in France.

    @Toddy After how well they did against Ireland with party Chicago distractions, this is may not be a good thing

    Great news re BBBR. The chances of a redislocation is relatively high though which is a worry.

    From that article:

    "Retallick's return would be a big boost for the All Blacks, with former captain Sean Fitzpatrick having said this week that another locking injury would put the hosts in "big trouble."

    BBBR is playing for Japan? The RWC is in NZ? Has Fitz finally lost his mind? Have I?

    Or are we just considered the "home" team for this one?

    @Machpants you'd like to think that not only have they learned from that 'experience', but preparation for an end of season 'friendly' vs the biggest match of the RWC pool match ups vs SA would be poles apart.

    @taniwharugby I'd certainly like to think it. But I'd also like to think that they'd take a game vs a then resurgent Ireland!

    @Toddy OK so this seems my constant state these days... Have I been whooshed? I didn't see any reference to Reece...

    Who would we call up if he was invalided out of the tournament entirely? Fifita?

    Who is the gimp doing the opening ceremony comms on Spark Sport? And why have we got an Aussie comm at all?
