Field Theory: Straight for the throat, in reply to chris,
I really think it's a numbers stats game. Included, it's a game of Rugby, commercial as it is, it is commercial. Welcome to our universe, Ireland won man :) That game last night was tough, brutal, only a wee bit of blood, and mosh pit . It wasn't about politeness. I really think Rugby is not that. There is argy bargy. Excuse while I watch Fiji V South Africa. This watching when one wants, allows one to savour the games for longer. I can get behind that.

I thought it was the last few minutes.?

Special yes. I've been hanging close to the Cavalier lately and it is chokka. I believe Friday past was special in a lot of places, I can now attest from a few places. I am seeing friends moving about the North Island freely. Hell, my Dad was cruising to Auckland back from Wellington this week. And, I'm still drinking ish.

Well, it's another party to get to. Party Central has been advertised. Plus, Ireland won man.

Field Theory: Straight for the throat, in reply to Geoff Lealand,
It was a magic game, especially the runaway near-try in the last few minutes.
So what was the prob there Geoff? Was it forward? It looked like it was ok, but I know little about this game so did the big wohoo anyway.

Hard News: The Minister's Brain Has Exploded, in reply to Felix Marwick,
Well I recall that the Herald and ZB covered it. I see Fairfax also followed it, as did RNZ, Radio Live, and AAP.
Hell, I even tweeted about it just to make doubly sure it got out there.
Surely his point was the order of importance placed on crap like Tindell when we are also attached to a bloody war. I also think that is evident with the continuation of the drunks at a bar in Queenstown and a stupid Bouncer still plastered over page 1 in the Herald, when the only article regards Kabul I can find in the Herald online today is about Australians at war in Afghanistan. Yet all around the world there is still analysis.A quick google reveals this. Go figure.

Amazing that it ain't Photoshopped.
It is. He's only got half a foot. The rest of it is firmly planted up his arse.:)

But really, in rugby terms, best World Cup ever.
Aye fer sure.Luck of the Irish! Thought it was a nice scrappy side to watch with a few bull dogs at the front. They showed determination from the beginning, leaving Oz looking more like they were left in a foreign wilderness. Oz looked confused.
Not that I actually know the rules or anythink but at one stage I thought Oz had combined a bit of Ozzie rules (aerial ping pong) into the mix when Ireland were wherever they turned, but that didn't work well either. The weather was on our side too.The Irish were used to a bit of argy bargy weather. And, big ups to the stadium crowd. Ireland won there too .
They even made me lament the passing of my Gran, who would of had a quid each way on the tinkers. :) -
Hard News: The Minister's Brain Has Exploded, in reply to Tom Semmens,
Either that or Alzheimers.
He probably started reading the comments attached to his diatribe. I even ventured to respond and I like to think I'm relatively passive, but I have become passive agressive lately with that man ;)

How many people were Veolia contracted to ensure got to the game? 15000 I think
How many got there via Veolia? Gotta reckon twice as many as they were contracted to do.
Think if they got there contract fulfilled, it isn't really their fault. Despite all the problems they and the patrons endured. There's one for Craigs team :)
