[Trystalmeth]

I love watching Rugby a lot more then watching Football It's awesome when people post these full games pretty soon I'll be playing for my church rugby team so this helps me get a better feel for the game.

I'm a new fan to rugby, but of the few dozen matches I've watched, this has been the most entertaining. It seems (and I leave it to wiser minds to say) that the ref did a great of job of not needlessly slowing down the game. I'm a fan of Shane Williams, so I'm glad to hear his name (honorably) mentioned during the game, but, I was glad that Australia persevered. Their defense deserved that win. Thanks @hike6ones for posting these full games.

@C24B9 Thanks for telling us who win's...

[C24B9]

@Lu4ty aw, freakin' nuts! i hate it when people do that to me. Sorry. BTW, knowing in advance probably won't cause you to enjoy it any less. This is probably one of the best I've seen, so far. (limited sample size, though, I admit.) I promise to type more carefully in the future! :-)

Cheers.

@C24B9 No worries man and I agree, this was a fantastic match! Thanks for not taking my comment the wrong way and replying nicely :)

[C24B9]

@Lu4ty No problem on the reply! There was nothing overly harsh in your comment...pointed out a faux-pas, and (mea culpa)...you were spot on. (Although, I must admit, I'm enjoying a lovely little flame-war with a young kiwi on another posting. I shouldn't enjoy it so much, but, the lad keeps coming back for more! I can't disappoint him, right? :-)

Anyway, I hear there's some games going on down in NZ...enjoy 'em! I'm trying to catch what I can over here in the "colonies!" Cheer!

Barbarians blew this on two missed goals 1 that could have tied the game and the penalty goal that could have gave them the lead
