Finally, not 4 more years. Yes so the All Blacks finally managed to exorcise their World Cup Ghosts by beating the French 8-7 in the Final. I must confess to having been wanting the French to win during the final, partly because they were the better side and partly because it would've just been funny had the Kiwi's bottled it again. However, they got across the line and this caused some pretty awesome scenes in Auckland on Sunday night and Monday. Lapped up the ...

SHAUN EDWARDS LOST WALES There is a pretty good tale behind this but it only happened the other day and I feel as if I should try and take things in some sort of chronological order, I know that some of you reading this are not that bright so I wouldn't want to confuse you all too much.

Especially when for a wee while against England last night it really did seem that the ...

Wellied with the Wallabies in the Wallady Beet Had a great week in Wellington but the crushing disappointment of the rugby has kinda ruined it. 6 points up inside the last 10 minutes and you kinda think that we're home and dry, not so much. Bad times. Not to dwell on it though, Wellington has been brilliant, I don't think that my liver likes me very much anymore. Not been sober much her. Met Dave Clarke and Ronnie Ewen from Cullen and had a decent scoop with th...
