yeh i agree with rugby fan, we should just try and win the world cup...like we've done twice before....
Not sure about his rugby writing skills, but Sheehan makes a reference to my favourite sportswoman whom I have been following avidly since she was 17 and winning Australian underage championships for her team, I bought tickets to the Sydney 2000 Olympic final in women's basketball a year in advance knowing she would put Australia there...
Good on Lauren Jackson for embracing a cause which is a huge blight in our society.
That one's gotta go viral! :lmao:
He was quoting Captain Cook there I believe Dan.
I think some of his points had resonance. If the Kiwis lose there will be an immense impact on NZ. .
I think France only have the one big game at WRC (as opposed to NZ who most of the time don't have any!) and that will be vs England.
Obviously one of the great traditions and weapons in world rugby, maybe I am looking a bit too far ahead here, but I was thinking of ways to combat it.
Waltzing Matilda: Good, but for some reason not done anymore
Also someone mentioned Rocky giving McCaw a right hook during the Haka.
Greg Smith came up with the idea for us to walk off and do drills, which failed horribly
Rod MacQueen made the players go into a huddle after and discuss plays
I came up with this:
80,000 people are there to watch the bledisloe and just after the Haka, the Aussies hold their line until the crowd silences.
Rocky Elsom steps forward.
Rocky: AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE!!!
Crowd: OI OI OI!!
Rocky: AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE!!
Crowd: OI OI OI!!
Rocky: AUSSIE!!
Crowd: OI!!
Rocky: AUSSIE!!
Crowd: OI!!
Rocky: AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE!!!
Crowd: OI OI OI!!!
I will hopefully intercept the boys at the airport on their way in to sydney and mention this.
This reminds the All Blacks where they are playing, who has support of the crowd and that WE dictate when the match starts.
Personally, I think the Haka should only be used in NZ. I see no reason why the All Blacks should be allowed to perform their little dance in other countries, it should be a home ground thing only.
