All Blacks Thrash England 36-3
 
Well, England certainly don't look like World Champions.

NZ Rises to first place on the World Rankings.

England got completely smashed...

Any more comments required? I didn't think so.

Wengerland 06-12-2004 08:12 PM

Yeah we were poor.

We've lost 3 out of 6 since the World Cup.:(

Badly missed Wilkinson and Johnson since then, but for that game we were missing guys like Greenwood, Kay, Vickery and Robinson.

Bad Company 06-12-2004 08:14 PM

Clive woodward said you guys had most of your strength there ;)
Yeah, you were down on numbers, but even with those guys there you wouldn't of won.

Wengerland 06-12-2004 08:16 PM

He's always saying that to try and re-assure us.:(

You lot are the best team in the world now though,and to be fair the All Blacks were awesome,as you said.

Bad Company 06-13-2004 06:52 AM

Yup.
And also, we get to play them this weekend as well.

Should be good.

Ol Dirty Dastard 06-13-2004 05:14 PM

Who cares, when crunch time comes and it's time to win a World Cup, New Zealand no longer has what it takes.

Bad Company 06-13-2004 09:11 PM

Hahahaha Newstead. You poor bastard.
I feel sorry for you, but you bring it on yourself. Supporting South Africa and all.
If anyone doesnt have what it takes it's SA. Waste of a team in the Tri Nations IMO, Argentina would put up more of a fight.

Danny Electric 06-13-2004 09:14 PM

World Cup Champions.

Was Wilkinson playing?

Bad Company 06-13-2004 11:08 PM

Wilkinson doesn't make a team, sure he would of helped. But one person can't make a team.
Wilkinson is overrated anyway, we won by 33 points mate. Thats 11 Drop Goals to you English supporters. Not even Jonny would of made that.

I seem to remember a year called 1995, where we beat NZ's sorry asses in the World Cup. How many World Cup Finals have the All Blacks been in since then?

Face it, they're just a bunch of choke artists, they look good when it doesn't count. They couldn't even beat the whiney bitch Wallabies in the World Cup, just pathetic...granted they beat the Bokka, but christ, who couldn't beat the Bokka last year?

Ol Dirty Dastard 06-13-2004 11:34 PM

LOL, Wilkinson is over rated eh? And Andrew Mehrtens is clearly so much better?

Get your head out of your ass, Wilkinson is one of the best in the game today. Fuc</>king Kiwis.

MoRcHeEbA 06-14-2004 02:08 AM

if only they could do it when it counts :'(

Wilkinson is one of the best in the game? Wake up.
The guy played all of one season, kicked some goals, and then got injured. What a playmaker!!!
Did you even see the game newstead? If you did, then you'd realise how stupid you look making those comments.
England had nothing, We turned their scrums, stole their lineouts and got 3 tries to none.
Even the English media know that it's over. They had a good season last year, but they are done.

Yeah, we lost the world cup, but we still have the tri nations, and bledisloe. So not too bad.

MoRcHeEbA 06-14-2004 03:53 AM

BUT NOT THE WORLD CUP...


also I have no clue what goes on in rugby so im just bein stupid here :love:

Frank Grimes Jnr 06-14-2004 05:56 AM

I'm an Aussie and I'm fucken glad the poms lost.
No Wilkinson, no England.

Bad Company 06-14-2004 06:36 AM

:y: Amen to that.

Wengerland 06-14-2004 03:33 PM

Come on now,Wilkinson has been world player of the year for the past 2 years,the guy is brilliant.He's a good tackler and uses the ball well when he gets it,aswell as being the best kicker in the game today,possibly ever.

I thought Mitchell did a good job with the All Blacks but the new regime has shown him up somewhat,especially on guys like Reuben(sp?) Thorne.Now they seem to have a good mix,Carter did pretty well on the goal kicking and, even though there was some debate, i think Spencer has to be at 10.

I agree about most of the other facts,our lineouts have been terrible recently,and Saturday was actually a big improvement on the Ireland six nations game,which tells you how bad its got.As a result Thompson is said to be getting dropped for the next Test,along with Dawson and Simpson-Daniel (who must have had about 2 name-checks in the whole game on our commentary).

Ol Dirty Dastard 06-15-2004 04:46 PM

Man, I hate Southern Hemisphere rugby fans. Pure and utter morons. Aside from Badassmofo of course.

Wengerland 06-16-2004 11:52 AM

Well 6 players have been dropped for saturday.Dawson,Catt,Thompson,Simpson-Daniel,Jones and Grewcock.

Bad Company 06-16-2004 09:48 PM

badassmofo :love:

Wengerland 06-19-2004 06:43 AM

2nd test finished 36-12 to New Zealand.:(

England did pretty well considering we were down to 14 men for 70 minutes, not to mention that being a crap decision.Not much went our way but there is a massive gulf in quality in the backs,one of the commentators here said "The All Blacks' backs are as good as England's are poor", which is probably right.

The Mackem 06-19-2004 08:12 AM

Yeah, I still don't care much for rugby.

But really the only way is down after winning a World Cup really, isn't it?

Bad Company 06-19-2004 11:55 AM

WWEngland, The decision was a bit rough, but he was rucked in the head. I think the referee was crap, unfortunately there's no such thing as a good northern hemisphere referee :(
Mackem, most sides are dominant after their world cup win, NZ in 87, Aussie in 91 and 99, they were awesome teams that dominated an era. South Africa went on a downward slide after the world cup in 95, and they are hardly remembered as the best champions. England hasn't been impressive since their world cup win.

Also, a good point to note is that England didn't even score a try in this series.

The Mackem 06-19-2004 12:11 PM

They never score tries, that's why they are so boring to watch.

Wengerland 06-19-2004 12:11 PM

Well replays here seemed to show it was more rucking in the back than head,i would have said a yellow personally, with the game being at such an early stage.

That's 4 out of 7 lost since the world cup, and, although with a few missing and retirements from that squad, world champions should be doing much better than that.

Unfortunately Robinson is our only player who can come close to Rokococko(sp?), and he wasn't in the sqaud.

Bad Company 06-20-2004 12:04 AM

Rocokoco is the man. :cool:

Team Sheep 06-20-2004 09:04 AM

Wales-the only home nation to have won this weekend. :cool:

Ol Dirty Dastard 06-20-2004 10:22 PM

Good old South Africa.

Bad Company 06-20-2004 11:46 PM

ZING!

The Mackem 06-22-2004 03:41 PM

It's "World Champions". :shifty:

Jesus Shuttlesworth 06-23-2004 12:08 AM

Whats up with the warm up dance they do before the match? They showed like 3 seconds of it on SportsCenter

Bad Company 06-23-2004 01:16 AM

It's called the Haka, it's a traditional War Dance.

The Mackem 06-23-2004 08:03 AM

World Champions don't have to do it :shifty:

Bad Company 06-23-2004 09:44 AM

World Champions don't score Trys ;)
Also, the World Champions aren't even number 1 on the rankings anymore :D

The Mackem 06-23-2004 09:49 AM

It must suck to be successful. I've never seen England score a try...:shifty:

Wengerland 06-26-2004 07:54 AM

GOD :|

We must be the worst team to have the world champions tag in any sport right now, defending today has been terrible. Still playing but i stopped watching at 46-15 to Australia.
