Bah

You hear that a lot in New Zealand.

NZ beat Argentina 33-10, two tries to one.

I happened to start watching the game just before the Argentinan Puma's scored the first try. At that point they were winning and I thought we had an upset on our hands. The All Blacks won, but 21 points was from penalties.

The Argentinan's had a brilliant long range penalty kicker too.

Somehow despite failing on every major stat line for territory and possession the Australian Wallabies beat the South Africans.

France 19-England 12.:cool4:Unfortunate but not all that unsurprising, given the quality of England's game. Ireland getting the boot on that same day, mind. That was a shocker.

You think? I saw that as a 50/50 match myself, maybe Wales as tiny favourites.

Oh god, it's worse then that, rugby's like a religion here in NZ. You would get lynched here if you say you don't like rugby or the All Blacks, which is actually nearly happened to me.
