RE: World Cup Rugby - Phil Davies (FGM) - 10-01-2007 Yeah that was cool the way he side stepped and then just acclerated away down the side line for the try leaving Habana in his wake. Fair do's to the yanks they put up a spirited performance and scored some good tries and always looked like scoring more but just couldn't put the finishing touches on it. Meanwhile our coach Jenkins has been served his matching orders and Wales are now "offically" in the market place looking for a new manager to grab a good team by the neck to get the best performance out of it. I think this could be a window of oppertunity for Henson to make a come back, at least he could kick the ball over the posts :chin: RE: World Cup Rugby - jawsconan - 10-01-2007 Hi, Argentina has a really good chance to reach semi-final here. It will be impossible mission for frenchies here...:( As i saw until now, all blacks play a good physical and technical Rugby, better than France Here. But i think south africa will be really difficult to beat for anybody in this cup. Cheers. Hubert RE: World Cup Rugby - falco - 10-01-2007 Argies as cup final winners??!......is it possible?? - falco. RE: World Cup Rugby - Rico (FGM) - 10-01-2007 Heck, if the Argies make it that far... I'll cheer them all the way!! Ok... if they're facing the South Africans, I won't. Starting to look like 4 southern hemisphere teams in the semis? USA played very well... and that winger of theirs is unbelievably fast... I can see the club scouts hauling out their checkbooks already... the All Blacks have probably offered him NZ citizenship already ;) RE: World Cup Rugby - Copper - 10-01-2007 Well there ends my interest in the World Cup... Ireland head home with their tail between their legs... the only bonus being we were able to show the Argies their back line isnt invincible.

Dont the All Blacks offer that already to the Samoans/Fijians etc ? RE: World Cup Rugby - Rico (FGM) - 10-01-2007 Yeah, the running joke is that Fiji, Samoa and Tonga make up the All Blacks "B" Team RE: World Cup Rugby - wigam - 10-02-2007 hey hey, seems like tall poppy syndrome:soap: can't help it if they want to play for the best team.:laughing: RE: World Cup Rugby - McIvan - 10-02-2007 It would be truer to say that Samoa and to a lesser extent Tonga are made up of the NZ B team.....the Samoan team is comprised of a majority of players born in NZ. There's only one genuine poach in the All Blacks, and thats Sitivini Sivivatu.....most of the time you hear poaching accusations, they're pointing the finger at players either born in NZ or who came to NZ as preschoolers.
