CanuckInUSA 0 #28 October 15, 2011 I just finished watching the Wales/France semi-final game. Damn I hate the French. What an uninspiring game from them in the 2nd half. All they did was kick. If the Welsh had not been short handed from that 1st half ejection (not saying the ejection was wrong), I am sure Wales would have won. Of course the first 3 points Wales scored after the French penalty was a questionable call too. Hopefully the winner or the All Blacks/Wallabies semi-fnal game will kick some Frenchie ass.

CanuckInUSA 0 #29 October 16, 2011 I just finished watching the All Blacks vs the Wallabies semi-final game. New Zealand was clearly the better team from the get-go. But give credit to Australia for playing hard in a hostile environment for them. This semi-final was a much more entertaining match than the France/Wales game, though the score difference would have been higher had the All Blacks not missed all those penalty kicks. I wonder how South Africa would have played against New Zealand? We will never know as far as this tournament is concerned. I don't want a close final. I want the All Blacks to destroy France.

CanuckInUSA 0 #37 October 21, 2011 We are running out of pre-game trash talking opportunities here with the final only a little more than one day away now. So I will get the ball rolling. I do NOT want the final to be a close game. I want the All Blacks to absolutely destroy the "Light in the Loafer" Frenchies and if prior play in this tournament has any influence, the All Blacks will prevail and they will do it convincingly. PS: Too bad Rugby is ignored by the media here in North America because it really is a fast, tough and dynamic game that I am sure people would warm up to if they were only exposed to it more often.

jakee 1,489 #38 October 21, 2011 I don't really want the AB's to win - New Zealanders as a nation are such poor losers that it's much more fun when they choke But on the other hand, France have been so abysmal they don't deserve to anywhere near the final, if they won it'd be a travesty! So yeah, if the Kiwi's are surely going to win anyway, it'd be nice to see them put on an exhibition. Do you want to have an ideagasm? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CanuckInUSA 0 #40 October 23, 2011 Congrats to New Zealand for winning the World Cup but kudos also must go out to France for playing as well as they did in the final.
