RWC Archive: France v New Zealand RWC 2007

[Chuckles123thefish]

i watched this game with family and was gutted about the last ten minutes because I knew we were going to lose. But 2011 made up for the 2007 disappointment and I think France will have an advantage when the next RWC is played in England.

[carlfromhastings]

Thank God it wasn't France.

[uskiwis]

Who are the chokers now? NZ's RWC Final record = 2/3. France's RWC Final record 0/3. France has enjoyed their role as the All Blacks RWC nemesis but in 2011 we have gathered up 20 years of despair & given it all back to Les Bleus with extras. The expression on Dusautoir's face after the 2011 loss has wiped the slate clean as far as NZ is concerned. See you in 4 years.

[Daedin2610]

ALL BLACKS GHEE... World ranking heheee

[TheFlyingMegaKiwi]

New Zealander here, but this was truly a magical moment in World Cup history. It evoked such a flurry of emotions for me, as I both struggled to comprehend my team, my idols, being eliminated so early from the competition and squirmed in feverish delight at having been able to view such a historic upset.

[gavmcguinness8024]

@TheFlyingMegaKiwi Very well said... NewZealand vs Ireland in the final this year :)

[NZ76ers]

@GuerillaGanja fuck ireland why wouldnt you comment on this game bcoz you no nothing about rugby stick to the soft sports that irish play and you have no common sense

[NZ76ers]

[NZ76ers]

@GuerillaGanja who the fuck r u? guerilla monkey fucked up shit r u french

[siwooot]

is it just me or do french teams always conveniently seem to get refereeing mistakes go their way in the big matches

[kadova]

I'm french and i think the All Blacks will win this year.

There was an obvious forward pass here but there was a forward pass too for the Luke McAllistair try.

Bad refereing anyway, although for both sides.

[wheelswithchops]

Why the hell is Helen Clarke smiling just after we lost?? NO wonder she didnt get voted back in

[PBSmithy]

NZ - never won a World Cup in the professional era of Rugby

C.H.O.K.E.R.S

[merkatron1]

@PBSmithy

yeah they did  in 87 fag

[PBSmithy]

@merkatron1

I said "In the professional era of Rugby".  Can you read? Which part of that don't you understand, Choker?

[cammatt97]

there is no if or but about it, that pass was very obviously forward

appaling refereeing especially in a world cup

[NZ76ers]

dont no why people r saying that we choked when it was an obvious forward pass for all to see unless your blind fuckin stupid english referees wayne barnes being eglish new that if the all blacks won that game that meant that we would meet england in the semis so he decided to let france win so england would have an easy pathway to the final fuckin dumb english

[CrazyCowProductions7]

well, all you dicks saying we are chokers, are being twats, because we are ranked number 1 in the World. So fail. Look it up

[jackjim3131]

@CrazyCowProductions7 world rankings dont mean much and new zealand have choked in the last couple rwc cus they are favourite so fail ;)

[Daedin2610]

@jackjim3131 bro that was clearly a forward pass. If you heard what the commentators said after the game they apologized for not verifying that.. heheeee all blacks

[bigfinau]

@Daedin2610 couldnt have happened to a worse bunch. In the years prior to that WC, I remain convinced that it was impossible for NZ to throw a forward pass, with every forward pass being adjudged to have been 'flat'

[sambozauk]

@jackjim3131 The funny thing is with that comment, anyone who knows anything about rugby will agree NZ are the team to beat, in any match, whether world cup, tri-nations or any international. So they are quite rightly favourites at pretty much every world cup. However, it is an annoyance that they seem to fluff out in the world cups, considering there far superior record over the likes of France in rugby, its just incredible how they still remain with 1 world cup in the bag since 1987,lol.

[SaiyanGoku1998]

@CrazyCowProductions7 ay and that was a forward pass in teh offload

[madscientistify]

cough* cough* i think someone just choked )-

[MrDivster100]

I love watching this video. All Blacks are chokers for life

[cymruadam]

A truly great day for rugby. More of the same this year please, will love to see the Blacks choke AGAIN.

[Tehui1974]

@cymruadam Considering that the Welsh have not beaten the ABs in over 50 years, I'm sure you would get enjoyment from other teams beating them. It's a shame that the Welsh can't do it themselves eh?

[sambozauk]

@cymruadam Oh this time mate, France are grouped in with NZ, and I can assure you they will not be knocking NZ out of the WC this time round. As per NZ look superior over the rest, but will they choke or will they actually go on and win it, properly and in style. On home soil you would expect it right?, best they do, because if they dont they may find a loss of support.

[Dockers4life14]

@cymruadam oi mate didnt you here, the referre got baned for umpiring rugby world cup matches why? becoz of the forward pass france did at 0:28

[layt23]

@cymruadam Well youll havto wait another 4 years cuz we jst won :)

[Deblaca2k9]

0:22 shows what type of game the all blacks like to play

[Joethemightyone]

Well that was boring!

[YOHEYHEYHEY69]

something like that happened this year.. there will be enough of us kiwis to tell that ref a lesson.

[admacable]

Wont be happening this year.
