While I too predicted/hoped for a France-NZ final beforehand... Legolas Send a noteboard - 16/10/2011 12:25:37 PM
Hope we walk all over the under-par French, but it will depend on which French team shows up.

I have to say based on yesterday's semi-final, I really wanted Wales to go through. France was very lucky to get their win by one point against a team missing its captain and being a player down for three quarters of the game.

And yes, if the France of the quarterfinal against England shows up, we might actually have a worthy final. Otherwise, not so much.
Brilliant. And what a game from McCaw, Dagg and Jane. Well, from everyone. Cruden also did really well. Proud of him.

Cruden is certainly making the most of his opportunity to make a name for himself in the world... if he keeps this up in the final, he'll have cemented himself a reputation as designated successor to Carter.
(I'd also like to say that this is my predicted final from before the beginning of the Cup, but no one will believe me on that. )

You should've said so in some post, then, so you'd have proof.

I absolutely loved how the Aussies formed an "honour guard" for the boys. Rebekah - 16/10/2011 10:57:43 AM 251 Views

The scoreline flattered us in the end Colonel Logain - 16/10/2011 11:39:32 AM 263 Views
You must have missed France-England if you say they haven't had their good game yet. Legolas - 16/10/2011 12:21:25 PM 241 Views
You must have seen a different quarter final between France and England than I did. snoopcester - 16/10/2011 12:54:10 PM 247 Views
Mostly agree. Rebekah - 16/10/2011 12:55:47 PM 376 Views

Well, I did see it on French television, so one might argue I did indeed see a different game. Legolas - 16/10/2011 02:32:45 PM 232 Views
That might be part of it snoopcester - 16/10/2011 03:16:04 PM 221 Views
My view on that game is the same as snoop's and Rebekah's Colonel Logain - 16/10/2011 01:08:02 PM 247 Views

Dude. DUDE. I love Marc Lievremont. Rebekah - 16/10/2011 12:54:01 PM 333 Views
It's a poor translation. It's funnier in French. Legolas - 16/10/2011 02:28:29 PM 236 Views
I'm not sure it is going to be much of a final, France really need to at least play half decently snoopcester - 16/10/2011 12:55:33 PM 248 Views
Yeah. They might surprise us and play like they did in the first 10 mins against NZ in the pool. Rebekah - 16/10/2011 12:56:45 PM 233 Views
Is it just me, Lews_TherinThelamon - 16/10/2011 02:49:26 PM 251 Views
