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. |

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

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. |

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. |

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. |

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. |

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). |

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. |

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? |

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. |

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

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. |

![]() 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. |
