  • Guys, the roblem of the refs is not that they are just giving advantage to All Blacks (except McCaw of course =D ). The problem is more that during international competitions we shouldn't have so much difference between Northern and Southern Hemispheres refering. During Four Nations (I refuse to call that Tri Nations successor "Rugby Championship" 'cause it's way too pretentious) and VI Nations no worries, but for World Cup all referees should work EXACTLY the same way. Which is not the case

  • Mcallister's yellow card is the softest sinbinning I've ever seen. I cant recall ever seeing a player sin binned for a similar offence. Nor can I recall a team getting 16 consecutive second half penalties. I also dont recall a game where a team/player is given a penalty advantage, immediately attempts a drop goal, MISSES , but the Ref says the advantage acrued and plays on. There were so many inexplicable and never-before-seen ref decisions that this game will always be contentious for Kiwis.

  • this is the proof that you should never play in pyjamas ...

  • Who is this knob commentating the match?

  • shame u suck france

  • Karma has come back to bite!

    In this game France did alot of infringements and was awarded a try off a forward pass.Barnes was incompetent in this game,Joubert in the final of 2011 was miles better than Barnes.Its karma!

  • @Toymit LOL Joubert win the final ! Not AB ...

  • @Unrugbymen Its called karma.You take the 2007RWC quarter final where Barnes won France the game and the 2011RWC final with Joubert but at least Joubert was better than Barnes.Barnes was more onesided than Joubert.

  • ALL BLACKS WORLD CHAMPIONS........GET OVER IT!

  • wow this is the first time in 4 years i can comfortably watch this vid everytime they played this on the news i just switched channels it was too hard to watch but hey this is all a blur to me now or is that bleu:P

  • I had to watch this video and the first time in almost 4 years after I had the courage to relive this and knowing how bitter sweet is it when the ABs won the world cup in 2011. Justice is sweet. Full credit to France though.

  • @marcellin20a justice ? are you kidding me ?

    final ref was a fucking pussy

    frence deserved to win

  • @ThePiouuuuu there a difference between 'deserving to win' and actually winning on the scoreboard. France could only manage one of them. It obvious.

  • @ThePiouuuuu totally agree with you on that one, man. France suppose to have at least 2 or 3 penalties in kicking zone in second half. I'm All Blacks fan, but France was better in final this year and should have win.

  • @ThePiouuuuu On that mentality France didn't "deserve" to be in the final. They were rather awful against Wales : )

  • @snowyalbino130 yes they were awful so what ? the best team was the final france team during the wolrd cup, they deserve to win

  • @ThePiouuuuu You can't say that the French deserved to win the World Cup when they didn't even deserve to be in the final. The All Blacks may not have deserved to win the final. But every game before that, they deserved to win, and did win. The same cannot really be said for France, they had a mixed bag of a tournament.

  • lol nz barely won last night, but hey winning is winning

  • How did the ref not pick up that miles forward pass that France scored a try on. Wayne Barnes you are a muppet!

  • One word after that final, REDEMPTION.

  • ALL BLACKS 2011 RUGBY WORLD CUP CHAMPIONS!!!

  • @ElAwS4077 finally you catch up with south africa and australia took you 24 years lol!

  • @MrCartoonlife Oh please! Australia took Ten years to win a tri nations cup and south africa have only won it 2 times!

  • pay back is a bitch aye france..even though AB's beat you ugly..but AB'S got their revenge

  • big france and pumas

  • COMMON FRANCE DO IT AGAIN TOMORROW

  • It was not forward, it was juggled.

  • Good luck to All Blacks and Les Bleus (:

    Hoping for a french miracleeeee!

  • Allez France!

  • payback is a bitch you french bastards haha. NZ win rugby world cup 2011!!!

  • @semple888 what a smart comment.

  • @semple888 "French Bastard" you say??? I'm French. I respect All Black and NZ. You're the biggest Rugby nation. So prove it, and respect France as we respect NZ. Because Rugby, it's also respect. Good Luck for sunday.

  • The All Blacks usual systematic defence was not on show this day. The best example of this was the final French try were the ABs failed to number up on the blind side, Nick Evans being the main culprit here. This in combintation with poor officiating and a failure to recognise that the substandard referee was not going to give a penalty for anything other than a direct punch to the face lost it for the ABs.

  • keep replying at 1:37 ....its obviously a forward pass

    4 years later....these 2 teams are in the finals and I hope nz will get their revenge

  • 6 days till we play the french in the final bring it :)

  • @MrCr0wley69 "we"  ?

  • TIME TO SEE THE ALL BLACKS RUN AWAY WITH IT THIS TIME.

  • @DobbieNathan dont be so sure, france had horrible attacking form on saturday, but the rest of their game was as world class as the times they have beaten new zealand before. if new zealand let france into the game then france will win.

  • @onefullcrabpot Don't be ashamed.

  • @onefullcrabpot Yeah, we're going to split it wide open.

  • @zodyce agreed

  • I can't believe that some people in New Zealand are still bitching about this game. For once that the ref didn't favour the AB and they've been crying over this for 4 years now! Get on with it. If we start talking about refs, then no team in the history of rugby has received more help from the refs than New Zealand! It happened again the other day for the whole world to see against Argentina when the ref was blatantly biased in favour of the All Blacks throughout the entire game.

  • @zodyce You're an idiot. The ref has never favoured the All Blacks, ever. Especially not in the Argentina game. Learn to play rugby you insufferable moron!

  • @zodyce Very well said.

    And this favouritism went on again during this RWC final...

  • @zodyce I cant believe some foreigners STILL complain about AB fans who dare to comment on the Wayne Barnes 2007 debacle. You probably dont even appreciate the hypocracy of crying about Kiwis crying. Ironic innit?

  • @zodyce wtf are you talking about? wayne barnes is an incompetent ref he missed a forward pass which resulted in a try that shouldn't have been given at all to france and he missed another forward pass at this year rwc in the game between aussie and wales,and that yellow card he gave to mcallister was absolute bullshit, he hasn't learnt from his mistakes until he does he's gonna keep on making the same mistakes over again.

  • @zodyce as for the refs been blatantly bisaed in favour of the all blacks pffft give me a break.

  • prepare your anuses NZ. The Wallabies are coming for you.

  • @sydneymassive you mean pocock is coming for you

  • @tebowisgay well he is pretty much the wallabies.

  • Forward forward forward.... But who cares... It happened in the past

  • @kiwiandciggy did you realy said "fucking" ??? please control yourself because my 10 years old son read your comentaries but fortunatly he doesn't understand caus' WE ARE FRENCHE you fuckheaddicksuckerscumbagsperm­atozoïdeloosersyoustupidsHAKAd­ancer..... see you in final kiwi!!!!

  • @jesuissurdecequejedi Someone swore on a youtube comment and you are surprised? Welcome to the internet, if you don't want your son exposed to the vulgarities of the internet, don't let him use it. You call the haka stupid? lol put your son in front of that...

  • fucking forward pass!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • if 1:37 wasn't forward, then i have a small dick, and i'm pretty sure i gotta biggin.

  • Who cares the All Blacks are going to nail France this world cuo, the French suck dick at the moment

  • @hotgal9882 If they suck dick, then why are they in the world cup final?

  • That was old news. THe past is the past, this World Cup is all what is matters

  • eeven zou ze all blaks zey win tonite , they still is fuked by ze french anytime anywhere ! zey can;t cope wiz loosing is like sumone fuk zem in ze azz and french did in 2007 which will remain one big french pole for ze all blaks to sit on and the new zealanders for ze rest of zeir lifes

  • @vagabong90 HAHAHAH ! . well in reality ! they LOST ! . so that was 07 ' this is TWENTY ELEVEN ! . haha x &the our boys aint LOSERS ! . haha . youll be lauqhinq on a FAT one ! LOLSSSSSSS .

    haha DREAMER MUCH ! .

  • it aint soccer, your meant to pass the ball backwards.

  • going to the game tonight, :D

  • Shouldn't you be swearing at the referee instead ? He is the one who called the shot and decided it wasn't a forward pass.... Get over it and grow up ! Oh, by the way, were all the tries forward passes in 1999 when we KICKED your ass in the semi ?... Maybe you should respect your opponent when you go on the field as much as the French respect you. I am French and I love my team, But i also admire the AB. So let's watch a good game of rugby and act as adults, please ?

  • I love how Kiwis always say they're humble but keep bitching against the French when they loose. Bit of advice for you : don't say the other teams are lesser than you before the match, it usually motivates them more! Oh well... Guess it's too late for saturday since you disrespected the French side by calling it a B Team.... Expect another chocker on you A Team side then ;)

  • @Pctoinou Umm didnt the ah All Blacks carve up France tonight??

  • @chaynieboi Yes, very nice game! I have the greatest of respect for the All Blacks players, too bad the people of New Zealand doesn't act likewise. Anyway, revenge in Final then ;)

  • Comment removed

  • Guess the ABs won't risk history repeating itself by wearing those grey shirts this weekend?

  • @MrManiac606 yea wearing black surely gave them more skills hasnt it LOL

  • @eggdied Physcology in sport is a big thing - and the shirts were one of half a dozen things that contributed to this upset by France.

    And I haven't seen the All Blacks ever wear those shirts again.

  • Obviously not a forward pass

  • The World Cup is a different beast to just a general rugby year.... The All Blacks have and will choke again because "lesser" teams will out-passion them and want it more.

  • @dbor009 I don't think anyone wants to win more than NZ and the All blacks mate.

  • oh man... as a New Zealander im ashamed to have to apologise for the idiotic comments posted here. YES it was a forward pass, and perhaps the ABs were robbed of a victory, but in the end, if it wasn't a forward pass, it would still be a try. The ABs were clearly outplayed that day, and calling them "chokers" is disrespectful to the French team. They were just too good for us that day, and that's the end of the story.

  • @sorry0bout0it thanks mate! sooo looking forward to the re-match on saturday. YOu guys are playing at home so that'll be hell for us! cheers

  • @sorry0bout0it no i disagree only second half

  • @sorry0bout0it If it wasn't a forward pass the ball would have been left behind the player.. = no try. Do you not comprehend that the ball was passed forwards in order for it to go to hand?

  • @sorry0bout0it En tant que Français, je te dis merci pour ce respect qui est réciproque d'ailleurs ^^

  • @sorry0bout0it not really. The ref was shit.

  • Comment removed

  • @sorry0bout0it Thank you for this great and mature comment! I'm french, I support my team even if you deserve to win sunday. I hope for a miracle. I want some french flair. I would like to see a match like semi-final in 1999 (NZ-France, the most beautiful i've ever seen  =p). But I respect and love AB : surely the best rugby team ever :).

    To the others, yes, it was a forward pass but it's the game. We have lost a finale in 99 besause of to refused tries. That disheartened us. But it's the game.

  • @sorry0bout0it If the pass wasn't forward, the try wouldn't have been scored because they wouldn't have had the overlap there. We weren't outplayed on the day, that French team was horribly bad, they would have struggled to have beaten Canada with that effort, but they had the ref on their side, anyone want to have a look at all breakdowns? The French were offside at ALL of them, they threw the forward pass which was blatantly obvious and not called, not to mention the yellow card!

  • @michaellinehan710 I have never met someone who can tell what will be the future. If the try was refused, how could we know the final score ? Yes, surely, win was for you with 90% of chances. But there is still 10%. You can accuse the ref but don't accuse French People. We didn't take any decisions in this match.

  • @sorry0bout0it As much as I admire and agree with what you're saying... I think labeling them "chokers" is perfectly reasonable.

    The term implies that we didn't play well, granted... but it doesn't mean that the French didn't.

    Just my opinion. Anyway who gives a s@#$ anymore we're WORLD CHAMPS 2011 BOO-YA!!!!!!!

  • algoods this saturday is ON !!!!!

  • algud thoe we gana fuc them over this time CHEATERS

  • It is great to hear Kiwis call the French cheats...The ABs are the biggest bunch of cheats in world rugby. Arseholes.

  • I remember when you speared Brian ODriscoll into the ground and nearly broke his fucking neck,when we complained we were told to shut the fuck up and stop wingeing..a rugby match is played for 80 mins one forward pass and you cry like a bunch of babies...Priceless!

  • I CANT FUKIN WAIT TILL NXT SATURDAY WEN NZ WILL SMASH THOSE FUKING FRENCH

  • Amazing. Lets hope the Kiwi's choke again. Arrogant buggers.

  • @richiemaskell excuse me arrogant? Don't know what rugby team your watching we are one of the most humble teams in world rugby take Richie McCaw for example. I like the term chokers it means that we the all blacks are the best team in the world on the rankings (which we have been 75% of the time) but stuffed up, England are shit bet you they won't get any where near fluking getting into a Ruby World Cup final. They can't even score above 50 points against Georgia. You play boring rugby.

  • @MrF00sball I play boring rugby? You've never seen me play. I am also not English you berk.

  • @MrF00sball yer cos your outing against tonga was rugby at its most pure.... hypocrite. a team that is only one place above georgia in the rankings! and guess what, both scores were 41-10. both teams are playing shit rugby, but thats what you need to win world cups.

  • @eddyd63 Did you see NZ beat France the other day we beat French! ABs are better than the England congrats on your win against Romania lol by the way. England won't win they lost to Wales! the last time the ABs lost to Wales was 58 years ago, for England I believe it was last month. Go suck a spotted dick.

  • @MrF00sball yes we put a second team out when we played them the second time, beat them the first time. much like you did against south africa when you lost away from home. interestingly they only beat wales by a point and wales deserved to win. yes i do think new zealand are the best team, i didnt say that, but can they play in a high pressure situation? will be interesting. oh also we beat france in this years 6 nations

  • ABs choke once again?

  • the ABs had heaps of opportunities, but they fucked up

  • Jean-Baptiste Elissalde running backwards to kick the ball out will always be a fond memory of mine. It was such a dignified way to end the game.

  • 1:37 so fwd ffs reff

  • eh, c'est la faute de l'arbitre, allez vous faire foutre tous qui dise que nous sommes des tricheures.

  • FORWARD PASS!!!!

  • @zest4lyfe If you slow it down the pass seems to be heading backwards, but the player momentum takes it forward. If this was deemed a forward pass, then we would have dozens of forward passes each game.

    We are always looking for an excuse for why the All Blacks lost (dirty tactics, food poisoning, forward pass).

  • Perfectly timed pass just long enough for it to be foward. Fucken robbed.

  • fuckin france forward pass cheat cunts

  • @kristokrepia ehehhee dont cry young teenager keyboard warrior

  • @zest4lyfe only sore losers

  • 1.37.. fantastic break more like forward pass... le french fries more like it

    

  • that last try from france was a forward pass.. bullshit french..

  • @cardiqan3000 you dumbass how many tries have NZ scored with forward passes in knockout stages of the RWC none so shut it!

  • lol , vive la France !!!!

    la Nouvelle Zealand , ne nous arrive pas a la cheville !! nous somme des coques , nous nous défendons , nous somme des français ! personne ne nous résiste , nous vous écrasons tous !! vive le rugby !!

  • @zest4lyfe Only the whole of new zealand

  • @zest4lyfe I wouldn't call them chokers. France was a good team

  • and then they do fuck all against england, and we here about england in the final for another 4 years.

    thanks france

  • 0.36. Oh no. The French did not just do that.

    Still Gallic blood.

  • NZ flair ......yeah right!

  • good god at the whining - how many tries have NZ scored with forward passes over the years?

  • kiwis choke choke, wont be surprised if it happens again this year

  • @FatPizza56 You obviously didn't see the foward pass, loser

  • wtf did they put in those french drinks at half time?

    Totally different team after the break.

  • All blacks es mal...jk all blacks RULE

  • fuk u cheated

  • Comment removed

  • I don't see any forward pass on the two tries. France wanted to win more than NZ. that's it.

  • @lol1808 there was just pause when the pass happens

  • Wayne Barnes = worst ref in the world.

    McAlister wasn't even watching, he had his back turned and the guy ran into him.

    And how fucking forward was that pass? Atleast 2 metres

    What a flippin joke

  • No Mauger, no Jack, Mils at center...

    1. you need to win knock out games and

    2. when the other team tackles you can't rely on them giving away penalties to score points.. sometimes drop goals may just be the ticket.

  • When I watched this game live I was stunned. How could the ref be so bad and how could France have the guts to cheat like that? Absolutely astonishing.

  • @GoodieGoodboy How'd they cheat?

  • @72Roo67 They didnt cheat more like the ref did a extremly bad call, it was an obvious forward pass which lost us the world cup. Us New Zealanders were heartbroken when we lost, especially when we could have gone all the way with a team like that!! This year hopefully we will take it out!!

  • @GoodieGoodboy you're so pathetic guy !

    In france, this rugby is called "Le french flair" and I love it ! :D

    remind this video , because this is what will happen next month :)

  • @Rieul31 oh no it wont that was a forward pass the last try to france but im not complaining we will win you just watch

  • @Rieul31 En Nouvelle-Zélande, nous l'appelons "la merde Le tricher français."

  • @GoodieGoodboy ah désolé mais j'ai pas bien compris ce que t'as dit mec !

  • This was the worst game the All blacks have played. No doubt all you haters on here need to chill out, we might not have won in 24 years, but beats never winning it... :)

    Go the AB's.

  • forward pass bitches

    

  • 0:44 is that forward pass

    cabbage ref there is a thing called TMO

  • probably the most fuckt game of rugby ive ever seane, lets just prey the refs don't fuck up this year!

  • \I didnt watch the game so idk what pass everyone means but from what im guessing it is this clip makes it hard too see one clip its in the players hand the next clip another players hands cant see the ball in the air of leave hands

  • Dear All Blacks

    If you guys really want to win the Rugby World Cup 2011..I hope you guys learned from this game and also previous WC games from 2003,1999,1995 & 1991 & don't get too cocky just because you guys are number 1 rugby team in the world or else you guys will end up losing your chance again of wining the Rugby World Cup 2011 which I hope that won't happen.

    Good Luck

  • Have France ever won a world cup ? NO and they never will either, stick to nuclear testing, and do it in your own backyard next time please

  • Comment removed

  • What commentary is that?...

  • the all blacks are pathetic.

    but I do agree that it was a forward pass.

  • has any one noticed that in rugby world cups, New Zealand has choked in every single one expect for 1987, seriously they are the favorites every single world cup and the choke in the semis,

  • France only won this game by doing what they do best, playing dirty and being cheats (the forward pass). That mixed with inexperienced biased ref (missed 2 attacking penaltys that would have won the ABs the game and the forward pass, even check paddy O'Brians statement about the Wayne Baynes) and an injured (prob purposly by the dirty french) Carter (only AB capable of getting a Drop Goal hopefully they practice it for this RWC coming up) is why the ABs lost and it should have been the ABs game.

  • @Alex55455 You can complain as much as you want, France won that game and seeing guys like you crying about it makes it just feel even better. For once it's not the french team that gets screwed up by poor refereing :p

  • @Alex55455

    Did France played dirty against NZ in 1999?

  • Comment removed

  • As long as South Africa or England don't win I'll be happy. I rely do hope its a New Zealand and Australia final in 2011.

  • New Zealand and France are in the same pool

  • all blacks ego let them down instead of going for the dropgoal mccaw decided to win the old fashion way.

  • wont happen this years world cup!!!

  • in world cup 2011 the ABS will kill france.

  • @XxrocKy97xX

    ooooh. just like they were supposed to in 07 :P hahaha jokes

    I hope France win, but yeah na I expect NZ to beat em.. its only a pool match, might even beat France by +20

  • Comment removed

  • To be honest we should have never lost that game even if the performance of the ref was extremely poor, which it was. Our team was so good we should've been able to field a b-side, be screwed by the ref and play badly and still progress. We choked and had no strategy for the final 10mins. In the end we played the worst game on the biggest stage and it cost us. In saying that if the ref was half decent we would've won and you cant just ignore that side of it either.

  • us kiwis still hate wayne barnes and that french prick mechalak, does cre if i spelt it wrong

  • @seatoun12

    Shit... this whole time I thought Michalak threw the 'forward' pass.. hes the one who caught it

  • @DexStanT  yeah true that

  • FRANCE KICK ASS

  • @1994pwnage NEW ZEALAND WILL KILL THEM NEXT TIME 100-0

  • You'd think Dan Carter would've just played through his injury in a game like this...

  • Que de beaux souvenirs! Magnifique match..... Vive les Bleus!!!!

  • thankyou, thankyou, thankyou france for making new zealand pay for getting so cocky.... again

  • seeing NZ choke.... PRICELESS!!!

  • This still makes my blood boil.

  • a champion number 10 is needed in such a match. no team has ever won the super rugby comp without a world no1 flyhalf thats how important they are. dan carter going out like that lost us the match, just hope he stays injury free this year.

  • @darrill7777 What lost the match was a combinination of Carter going off and McCalister being reckless in a knockout world cup game...

  • @darrill7777 thanks for your wisdom, although I wouldn't say
