How the hell did they do that. Darkness score from nothing kick through. Under the dot. Conversion. 14 Darkness Gold 17.

 

[Jnor]

This has to be the worst way to follow live rugby but thanks boys, without you there would be emptyness

 

[cyclopath]

Very tired from both sides; NZ in again, 3 and a half mins to go. 19-17 to them with kick to come...missed kick.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

NZ Lineout 40 metres out. NZ win lineout,

Almost score. Turner trysaver tackle. 5 metres out. OZ lineout. Our ball hard on defence 22 metres out. Messy. Ark..... PK to Darkness 4 minutes to go 40 metres out.

Shizzen - After two offloads - Bloody DJ Forbes in for try. He is too good. Darkness retaining focus. 19 - 17 following missed conversion.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

2 minutes to go. Messy ball - Our turnover. PK to us 90 seconds to go. 60 meters to go for us.

Knock on to our boy Gill. Scrum Darkness. Still time for us.

40 meters from NZ line. Forbes down injured.

NZ Win ball. Shit he is fast . Darkness #9 beat Turner on the outside. TRY to NZ Baker #11. Game over. Gold to the Darkness.

Final Score 24 to Darkness 17 to the Golden boys.


Bloody good effort from our boys. Always threatened.

Gill, and Stannard most impressive for Gold.

 

[cyclopath]

1 min to go, we knock it on 30 out from their line, injury stoppage.
Come on boys, get a tighthead!!!

 

[cyclopath]

24-17 to Evil Empire, last try-scorer acting like a total cock too.
Aus tried, ran out of legs, NZ too well drilled. Deserved win.

 

[Jnor]

Noooooooo, when will the forces of good finally prevail?????

 

[Hugh Jarse]

Australian Silver is best Com Games 7's finish.

They did not disgrace themselves. There is plenty of hope for the future, particularly when we sort out the passport issue of those not allowed.

We really needed another speedster.

Darkness was too composed, too experienced, always looked in charge. Didn't think we would get as close as we did, given out defence lapses vs Poms yesterday.

Can go to bed happy.

 

[Spewn]

What a disgraceful bit of poor sportsmanship by the tool who scored the final try. Holding the ball up and laughing at the Australian coming in. As bad as an Indian send off in the cricket.

 

[Hawko]

God I hate losing to the Darkness! Still, it was very close and the dodgy penalty for holding on turned the momentum. Some great play from Stannard and Coleman, and I thought Turner, McCutcheon and Morahan were good also. Turner was too tired at the end, needed to be replaced but he was our kick-off winner so I guess he had to stay.

Someday soon we will turn it around and then it will be sweet. But for now its only bitterness.

 

[chief]

Great game by the Nz'ers. Certainly a close game. And full credit to those players.

The NZ bloke who showed the final try is now NZ's biggest twat. Has humiliated himself, and has actually just flushed the idea of sportsmanship down the drain.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

PS- note to my Darkness mates. Have you had a look at the medal table recently. This 3rd Gold medal should rocket NZ to 10th place on the Table ahead of Samoa and behind Scotland.

#9 for Darkness was Stowers, and he didn't burn off Turner on the outside for the matchwinning try. It was Stannard. Dsepite this Stannard was my MOM.

 

[Brumbies Guy]

Stannard, Coleman and Turner showed great defence... Gill unlucky with the knock on but looked tired throughout.

Well done boys! Good effort getting the silver

Just hope this Aus trend of fading out with leads to NZ dies off fast!

 

[disco]

4-17 to Evil Empire, last try-scorer acting like a total cock too.

Yeah what a fucking tosser that prick is how many gold medals have the Kiwis won in this com games? 3 gold medals now whoopi duckshit.

They can't even play the population card as Scotland is above them.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

Hey Rugby Future. You should not watch the medal ceremony. Some of those Army ceremonial uniforms are really classic. You may end up going adding those to your collection.

That oval was awesome. Delhi University has set the benchmark for footy ovals. Those lighting towers would not be out of place at the SCG.

Note to Syd Uni "Financiers", you will need to have bolldy deep pockets to turn No 1 oval into something to compete with Delhi Uni.

And did I mention the Marching Boys????

Saffers = Bronze. Golden Boys = Silver. Men in Black = First place.

Poms = nowhere. hooray.

 

[cyclopath]

Although, on replay it looked less bad. Shouldn't detract from a deserved win, I will say. But bloody hell, I thought we might pinch it.
