  • Personally don't think this was the greatest game of rugby ever... it was good, but the amount of missed or broken tackles is a little alarming...

  • @bidefordrfc This was back when the TNs was something to behold. Thanks to the ELVs and the nonsense reffing...great TNs games are a thing of the past.

  • @Blitzbok SH rugby is much more sloppy now than it ever was as a result of the above.

  • @Blitzbok

    Yeup, ELV's were ridiculous, there are a couple like the passing back into your 22 which I like, but now there are so many laws which are broken every game that the referee doesn't have the power or the eyesight to pick them all out.

    Vote for me as Emperor of rugby and I'll bring back using your boots to move people out the way in rucks :) lol

  • @bidefordrfc Mate you'd easily have my vote. The only thing rugby really needs is the consistant enforcement of the laws... not worthless guidelines! Rucking would be a bonus. When will these boneheads realise that you cannot artificially manipulate the laws to force players to play a certain way? Furthermore, they are robbing Union of it's dynamism and making more bland and one-dimensional like League. Very frustrating!

  • rugbys awsome

  • rugby union is a man sport

    unlike american football, they need protection lol...

  • nice defence

  • Real men dont wear pads. LOL ;)

  • To be honest, the defence was sub-brilliant, but... As someone else noted, the support play was BRILLIANT! (For non-fans, that's guys running to be in the position for a pass, before they know that one's coming - it's sacrificing your body an inch at a time for 80 minutes.) Second, there were several back-vs-forward matchups that make the D look worse than it is. Third, the sidestepping by some of these guys is beyond comprehension!

  • I'm proud to be a Rugby player. Like if you're too!

  • How can you say only the southern hemisphere know how to play rugby? Is it not an English sport?

  • How kiwis could defeat wallabies?!

  • @the6apcyk haha either you dont know rugby very well or you been living under a rock your whole life!

  • @101metalmilisha You have bad sense of humor aren't you? ^)

  • Get well soon, Jonah, all the best to you!!!

  • News flash new Zealand has the 2010 rugby world cup and this 2000 game was one of the worst played by both teams no defence, lots of mistakes, how can this be the best?

  • @pheniox17 @2011 world cup not 2010 .....and it is one of the greatest games ever

  • @pheniox17 shows what you know! 2011 world cup! everything you just said went staight out the window cos its obvious you duno what your on about

  • all blacks should be called "ALL-WAYS WIN" :)

  • This the greatest game of rugby ever played ?!! Right... So basically the only thing that seems to matter is the number of tries scored...

    Shouldn't we care about de fact that the defending was shocking ? About the complete absence of tackling ? Anyone ?

    The greatest game I've ever seen was the semi-final of the world cup 99 between New Zealand and France. I was there that day and you could hear and feel the hits going in ! The intensity was just ridiculous !

  • Poor 8(2:53) man on the floor, knocked him down on purpose.

  • who else but lomu !!

  • no southern hemisphere game could be the best rugby ever played

  • @halwil03 Hahaha will the best game of rugby ever played certainly wouldn't come from the northern hemisphere

    Southern Hemisphere = 6 world cups

    Northern Hemisphere = 1 world cup

    fukin tool

  • @87DKing nice essay ya loser

  • @halwil03 Nice comeback ya losser

  • @87DKing thanks. not sure what a losser is though

  • @halwil03 well only southern hemisphere teams no how to play rugby

  • @halwil03 your from Afghanistan, what the fuck do you know about anything apart from having bombs dropped on you!

  • @101metalmilisha you sick fuck. people like you should be put down.

  • whats the wingers name for the blacks

  • Rugby, Football, and Hockey > other sports

  • I had never seen a game of rugby until I watched this. So it's basically just lateraling the ball back and forth to the TD? Interesting...

  • @JTC31290 It's a bit more involved than that. This video isn't a very good example of the way rugby is played nowadays as the sport has moved on a lot in the 12 years or so. All this video is showing is the build up to tries and very poor defences lol.

  • Very entertaining, and I love rugby, really love it, but this is just a game with shit defence?

  • now this is rugby, all tries, nowadays its just kicking penalties, playing it safe...

  • Comment removed

  • WTF FOOTBALL IS JUST A PUSSY VERSION OF RUGBY THIS SHIT IS HARDCORE WTF NO PADS DAM THT SHITS CARZY

  • @kevtarzan Football can pass forward and has 4 downs. Rugby and football is a totally different sport. Yes, Rugby is Hardcore and dangerous but Football focused more on the plays and strategies used. Rugby you can basically run through everyone, fall, get back up and start running again and you can kick the ball to yourself.

  • @theNVMEproject No. If you are tackled and held you can't get back up. Also, try kicking the ball to yourself when there is a 6"5 winger who is charging you down....Not fun.

    Also this sport has crazy amounts of strategy, it may seem chaotic to a untrained eye, but to a dedicated fan and player, you can see how well they are communicating, finding gaps, exploiting them, giving support and scoring

  • 51 australians watched this 

  • @RylanRichard1 No shit? there's not just New zealands watching this. It prolly just american gays hating on this. No australian or NZ would dislike this.

  • Btw I love rugby :)

  • Football is obviously going to have bigger hits because they can go all out and not have to worry about their own bodies because they have armor

  • 50 australians are still dark!!!

  • Now this is what I call a sport. SCREW FOOTBALL!!!

  • this WAS the greatest game...until the 2003 world cup final

  • unbelievable

  • allblacks vs wallabies 1995 best game ever!!!!!!

  • This is not better than football. Not at all. It's kind of entertaining though. Kind of.

  • SO MUCH BETTER THEN FOOTBALL

  • @Finaratto lol

  • Mortlock is the greatest wallaby there ever was.

    six feet three, 105kg, fit, tackle busting, captaining, kicking, defensive beast

    not to mention he has a great personality and an open mind

    best #13 ever

  • Who gives a fuck which sport is tougher or better.. they both kick ass to watch. I play American Football but Rugby is fun to watch, either way both Rugby Players and Football Players are strong men.

  • @FlashyV2 essentially nfl is anaerobic and rugby is aerobic. its kinda like comparing a 100m sprinter with a 5000m runner. pointless.

  • @MrHabibee A rugby player could play American football. 95% of American footballers could not play rugby.

  • @clearlogicify All running Sideways.

    

  • @clearlogicify

    Lol i feel like you just ripped that out of your ass.

    

  • Greatest Game with the Greatest team winning!!!

  • I don't care which sports tougher. Rugby is like 10x more exciting to watch.

  • American football All day Rugby is gay and noob sport rugby is a puny pusssy sport and none of your rugby teams could fuck with the worst nfl team nuff said faggots:/

  • @Siagonthegod In american football, they have loads of padding and shit, rugby you take a hit with no protective gear, if the quarter back is going to get sacked he throw's the ball away, more like nfl could'nt fuck with rugby.

  • @beansboyify Ok but rugby cant fuck with NBA basketball

  • @Siagonthegod Ha no, the sports are too different, but basketball ain't a contact sport, well at least it's not suppose to be, I played it in school and your getting in elbows.

  • @beansboyify The quarterback throws the ball away so the team just loses 1 down, and not lose yards AND a down.

  • @Siagonthegod lol... nice armour... nuff said.

  • This is much better then our American Football! They don't stop for 2 minutes everytime someone drops the ball! And they don't use gear!

  • @briantravelman In American football there is a 60 minute clock, but only about 5 minutes is spent playing.

  • @ProfessorMultiKill

    Exactly that's what I'm saying. It's such a slow sport. I would actualy watch it if it was faster. I seen a rugby game last night after the SuperBowl and was much better! I will admit, that Football has harder hits though, but also they wouldn't dare if it wasn't for the padding. I've seen some pretty hard hits in rugby too though, bloody faces, missing teeth. Plus they play in shorts and a T-shirts! Those guys are tough!

  • wow must have been exhilarating to watch live. Jonah is so awesome

  • skip to 1:34 hahaha I love how his shorts ride up XD

  • wow.

  • This is not a good game. This is SHIT defense.

  • @SanePerception This is unbelievable support play

  • @ceebowone Yes im sure you are. Bahaha.

  • @UHtiger the funny thing is i really am lol.

  • @UHtiger ill upload some videos soon and give u the link to just prove it.

  • @ceewobone Tuqiri, Sailor and Rogers were all kangaroo players and tuqiri is the only one that made a real impact. He played rugby as a child and actually played in the nz secondary schools before moving to aus. Saffie ex st George plays for the rebels, will never make the wallablies. Luke Rooney played for the Roos, couldn't even get a start for the ITM cup team he signed with in nz. SBW was scouted at 15 so he obviously had something to start with. Brad took a couple years to develop as a rug

  • @UHtiger thats the point you idiot they WERE, but werent anymore. heaps of ppl have something to start with but its the development that got him to the level he is at, the boys made the wallabies that is the main point where in aus they were far from there best at rugby league in aus. why dont you just admit that if our best league players were directed to union that the wallabies would be an amazing side.

  • @ceebowone Horse shit, they were still top league players when they were poached. They all still were making the kangaroos and state of origin sides. They were marquee signings and had been paid a tonne of money to switch codes so of course they were gonna get rushed into the wallabies side. Still havnt heard your excuse for rooney and saffie. Rooney was in the kangaroo squad before he swapped. All you do is come up with bullshit excuses whilst conveniently leaving out valid things ive said.

  • @UHtiger hahahahaha my dad is maori aand used to love the allblacks untill i saw the 2011 wc when i saw the childish behaviour from players and fans alike, and im too scared to argue face to face hahahaahaha, with my dad as south coast boxing champion and me as an ex heavy weight amatuer nsw boxer i am shaking in my boots dikhead.

  • @ceewobone for f*ck sakes you still spouting your novel sized bull shit. Here's you bragging about beating wales and conveniently leaving out the fact that you were utterly dominated in both the quarters by SA (winning on the back of poor reffing which is ironic since your more than ready to jump on the reffing in the final) then you got completely outplayed against the abs. For your info we were up to our 4th string 5/8th and missing our starting full back.

  • @UHtiger no im not bragging about beating wales, there is no pride in a bronze medal, and where did i ever say that we were better than sa in the qfinal??? we beat them in defence full stop, with such domination from sa they couldnt convert it to any tries, and i was spewing at the worst ref in the world for never giving a fare game to any given team he refs, just like the aus vs ireland game, he constantly let the irish slow the ball down and allowed for false injurys unlike the french in final

  • @ceebowone every time the french tried to pull an injury in the final the ref penalised them, so why couldnt aus get the same justice????

  • What a great game. Both such talented teams.

  • one more thing if aus was to direct our talent from league to union allblacks wouldnt be so arrogant, our couple of players that left league and played union have made it straight to the wallabies side even in our times of strengh with great ease, and its ashame that most our union players are just the rich poshy kids from private schools with hardly a agressive bone in there bodies which shows in the way the wallabies let the ab treat them.

  • @ceebowone South Africas best play rugby, england has over a million players and havnt beaten nz since 03. Talk about the other sportsman all you want but as it stands new zealand are playing australias best rugby players.

  • @UHtiger there u go again, u cant help ur self at the chance to brag about how good nz is, ur sport insecurities ooze out of you, ur countries lack of sporting abillities have given you a small man small dick syndrome like attitude, if aussies carried on like kiwis at every other sport we play against nz, u guys would cry to mummy and call us arrogant and rude cause u already over compensate so imagine we rubbed in ur nose like kiwis do wit rugby.

  • @UHtiger i have an idea to help wit the kiwis ova compensation 4 lack of sporting talent, go build a big boat da size of eden park, and pak it wit kiwis like you and go scream at the rival american sail boats and boo them n yell out how nz is better than them as a sporting nation as ratios r concerned so it will have a therapeutic like efect on the kiwi small man small dick syndrome condition. its win win, kiwis can act out naturally, and u can give australia a break frm ur ankle bitting. yay

  • so enjoy your rugby becuase its all you got oh sorry you have softball and bmx riding lol everybody respect nz because its the 3rd best sporting nation in the world hahahahaha, better than america, europe, asutralia, ect ect. so london watch out cause nz and norway are gonna steal all our gold medals.

  • @ceebowone Im sorry, i didnt realise you couldnt read. When did i say they were better than those countries as a whole. I said that PER CAPITA they were ranked the third best sporting nation. PER CAPITA. Meaning that for our size we do bloody well which fly's in the face of your "your only good at rugby" statement. I notice there was no reply to the americas cup comment i made. No you wont bring that up because your heads so far up your arse that you block it out and change the topic.

  • @UHtiger well you tell me other rugby what is nz known for? i will say a nation is good at a certain sport if they keep being competitive and win not a short spirt and single achievments, for example at every olympics australia is always threatening at swimming and usually win some gold and have a strong rivalry with usa so that makes us a nation known for swimming and so on. nz is known only for rugby thats my point.

  • @ceebowone Like i noted before new zealand have owned the americas cup since the mid 90's 1st with the new zealand run boat and then with alinghi (i think thats how you spell it) which was designed by a kiwi and is captained by one. New Zealand rowers are consistently the best in the world as are our triathletes and our cyclists are up there with the best as well.

  • @UHtiger and the scientist that done the PER CAPITA study is ridiculous because he isnt taking participation rates into consideration, he is just taking the size of a population and assuming that just because its a bigger nation it has a bigger participation rates.

  • @ceebowone Jeeze you bring up some numpty excuses. greatestsportingnation(dot)com is the website. Go and try find all the excuses you want, im sure your more equipped to make decisions on the matter more than these people who are payed specifically to research this stuff.

  • @UHtiger i dont agree wit these scientist who believe nz nrwy jmca r the best sporing nation as ratios r concerned, so u can have 1 or 2 realy talented sprts person in a small country who is the best at what they do and that automatically makes the whole nation awesome at sports is an absolute ridiculous conclusion, it only means that the individuals are the best at that certain sport. u jus blieve it cause it blows the kiwis out of proportion, not all studies r correct

  • If the abs are only good because of home field advantage how do you atest for their overseas records. You bring up WCs because that's the only thing to do with rugby that you can bring up.

  • @UHtiger how do you atest for every game at the 2011 tri nations that ab played away from home were losses? and the bledisloe test in hong kong b4 that hhahahahaha? and no i bring up world cups because its the pinicle of rugby

  • @ceebowone What you mean the TWO games they played. When they were chopping and changing players to test things out which in the end worked because they went on to win the "Pinnacle". The world cup is a tournament with a fancy title. The fact that new zealand were a dominant force for the 80 years preceding the first world cup and there 85% win rate since is a much greater achievement than stringing a couple good games together during a world cup.

  • @ceebowone The refs that control the away games are the same ones that control the home games. So they just happen to change their minds because they are on a different bit of dirt?

  • @ceebowone what happened to your "very sexy missus" I though you were done? There's attests 9 in rugby that on their days can beat any other team i.e Samoa beating Australia or Tonga beating Australia or Ireland beating Australia or Scotland beating Australia, hahaha. Sivivatu is the only one in years that wasn't either born in nz or had been brought up there and even he had been there since he was 15.

  • @UHtiger u must of forgoten to add france vs nz

  • @ceebowone Another change of topic hmmm funny that. Now lets look at that. it was your statement that there are only three teams that have a chance of winning the WC. You pointing out that France (considered one of the top teams in the world by the way) can beat the all blacks on its day just reinforces my point. Thanks for that. scotland v aus *cough* samoa v aus *cough* tonga v aus *cough* ireland v wales *cough*.

  • @UHtiger when did i ever say wallabies we where always better than all those norhern teams? on der day they are very capable of beating us, n i was joking about france u idiot, history tells me dat nz sa oz r the only countries capable of winnning a wc wit eng got lucky wit wilkinson ause they cant keep consistancy. i dont claim aus is awesome like u kiwis do wit da ab, wallabies are a team wit alot of talent and the most dangerous backline in the world, but we r guided badly by a kiwi coach.

  • @ceebowone We talk up our all blacks because of their superior win loss record over every other team in the world. A win record of 85% since the pro era began. Having only ever been beaten by 5 international teams in their entire history. Having won the tri nations 10 out of 17 times and about the same in S15. Having only lost to France out of the NH teams since 2003. Thats why we talk them up because they are bloody good at what they do.

  • @UHtiger noone doubts the allblacks are awesome but its the manner i which u guys rub it in everyones nose and people r really getting sick of it, australia r awesome at rugby league and many many other sports but we dont rub it our rivals noses like kiwis do, all the wallabies deserved was abit of respect just like we gave the kiwis in the 2003 wc, n many would like to think that we will get out revenge whenever nz come to aus and the next wc but frankly aus r not as nasty and childish as kiwis

  • @ceebowone As ive asked before, have you ever been to a aus cricket game. Drunken bogans everywhere, racist slurs, people hanging over the fence and screaming there heads off and players who are fielding near the fence for the entire game. Have a look at how Queensland crowds treated wendell sailor when he started playing for the waratahs. Aussie crowds are every bit as bad.

  • @UHtiger like i said b4 stop talking bullshit, dont try and put aussies at the same levl as the nasty kiwi fans who are over compensating for a lack of being able to cheer at any other sporting event, and yes i have been to plenty of cricket games being a very special sport 4 us, and like any sport u have dikheads carrying on like kiwis but only a couple compared to the masses of a pack stadium, my dad is maori n he was ashamed of his fellow kiwis bhavour cause he loves aus and is thankful of oz

  • @UHtiger Like i said history tells us that there are only 4 teams that can win

  • @ceebowone So its 4 teams now, before it was 3.

  • @UHtiger stop being a little kid, i am not gonna repeat myself, over and over, eng got lucky wit j wilkinson being that he has mastered boring rugby and now he has lost it look at how bad eng r, they dont have the abillity to maintain a dangerous team like southern hemisphere sides, so history tells us that there is only 3 sides that have a genuine chance of winning at every world cup unless 1 side chokes. i dont have time to go through every little niggly info we have debated.

  • When have I ever said they were a Motorsport nation or any of those others, I've said they had achievements in those sports. Are you saying aus is a Motorsport nation?

  • @UHtiger no i didnt say that but we seem to keep being competitve at both f1 and motogp and we have had our decent share of motogp championships including the current world championship. and what rugby has much more teams that have a chance at winning? england got lucky with wilikinson who mastered boring rugby which he is now finished and look at england now there terrible but its only oz nz sa whos got a chance of winning the rugby wc. doesnt matter they r nt born in nz or raised

  • Nz oz and England are the only countries that have a chance of winning anything and once again nz 15,000 aus 200,000+. By Fijians, Samoans and Tongans are you talking about those players that are born or raised from primary school age in nz?

  • anyway i got a very sexy missus demanding my attention so ill finish this tmoz

  • @UHtiger New zealand owned the Americas Cup for most of the 90's and only lost it when a new zealand designer and our best sailor went to a different group. Oh and we've had champs in motor sport as well, Bruce Mclaren being the most famous.

  • @UHtiger so are u trying to say that nz is a motorsport, sailing, softball,boxing,golfing,bmx ect sporting nation lol?

  • @ceebowone Once again, why you changing the subject. You said if I gave you some other sports you'd admit, now your turning it into a pissing match. Cadel was a great achievement so good for him. There's only 3 teams that play league and you's are the only ones that take it seriously. NZ has 15,000 registered players aus has over 200,000 and you still choose players born overseas.

  • @UHtiger uhh maybe u should wait for a reply b4 u go and say i am changing the subject, hahahaha 3 teams plays rugby league? i cant speak for the aus coach as 2 y he has chosen uate and williams over our much more talented candidates, but we dont go around rubbing everyones nose in the fact we are awesome at league like u kiwis do wit union, but compare nz rates wit samoa in rugby and ask urself y they still choose samoan fijian and tongan players to play 4 the allblacks u hypocrite?

  • @ceebowone Why are you changing the subject now. You tried to make out as if rugby is all new Zealand's got. I gave you numerous other sports which we punch above our weight in. Why is the SCIENTIFIC research stupid, please give me one valid reason? Yes I would like to see some participation rates. The only sport the is close is rugby. Aus has 5 times the population and spend a crap load more money on their sports. But back to the original point, new zealand is more than just a rugby nation.

  • @UHtiger hahahahaha just cause nz have a couple of achievements doesnt mean they are nation of those sports, you have to keep producing competitive players and teams for each of those sports, rugby in nz for example keeps producing competitive and winning rugby teams so that makes them a nation known for rugby, which these other achievements you have listed are really rare and short lived, every country or atleast most can come up with a list of achievements just like u have.

  • @UHtiger like i said aus has a larger population but it is filled with immigrants that dont play, have interest,make a impact, or know sports exists, so u cant count our population in the participation rate, for example sydney and melbourne are riddled with indians and asians and you cant exactly say you will see a kumar lee populating a wallabies or kangaroos team.

  • Why am I gullible? For believing a website which used data and scientific theorem to determin a countries success in sports. Whilst your giving nothing but your biased opinion I'm basing my info off something real. Try tell nz cricket players that the drunken bogans at cricket matches are actually shouting there support. Denegrate the all blacks world cup record but there's no denying their overall record which stands at 75%, more than any other country. Why would refs be biased to the AB's?

  • @UHtiger the refs a biased to the allblacks cause they r the host and the no1 rank and kiwis have the capacity to winge and slander refs like wayne barnes in 2007 when the kiwis should be wondering y they suck on the big stage and choke, and how the lowly wallabies were the first to win the most world cups and hold an equal 1st in world cups.

  • And yes according to the study per capita Jamaica was number 1, Norway 2 and New Zealand 3. Aus was ranked outside the top 10.

  • @ceebowone Of course there is rugby which they dominate at men's,, woman's, u20's and 7's. Current league world champs, constantly up there with aus in netball, numerous rowing world champs, cycling world champs, youngest ever golfer to win a major tournament, previous softball world champs, K1 kickboxing world champs, David tua, former badminton world champs, BMX world champs, equestrian, world champ triathletes, some of the worlds best sailors, discus, shot put

  • @UHtiger hahahahaha would you like me to compare your short list with australias extensive current and past achievements? you will say we have more people but if i was to give you the participation rate of each of these sports you will see that they are very similar to the kiwis rates and thus the reason why i find it hillarious that you would believe such stupid research results. australia is filled with immagrants with no interests or impact in sports which should be taken into consideration

  • @UHtiger seriously dude australia can top everyone of those minor nz achievments with major achievments, example cycling = cadel evens tour de france, league = 9 out of 13 world cups, sailing/yachting John Bertrand american cup champion, golf = where do i start? bmx = hahahaha what about moto gp current world champ casey stoner, anyway i havent got time to list our extensive achievements.

  • Oh and for your information an independent American report found that new zealand per capita was the third best sporting nation in the world so insinuating that we're only good at rugby is wrong.

  • @UHtiger hahahaha well you tell me what sports are nz good at???????????? come on i dare you, if you can prove it to me i will hands down praise you narrow minded people on your great achievments in sport. the person who conducted the report is absolutely oblivious, how many gold medals do they usually average at any given olympics? cause many would say that the olympics would be the measure of a nations sporting capabilities and im curious who is first and second? talk about gullible.

  • Bahaha what a load of crap. Have you actually been to a league or game? I have! And the Aussie fans are just as bad. The whole situation with aus was based around Quade Cooper being a dirty clown against new Zealand's favourite player at every chance he could. Then you've got the constant talk from Australia calling the all blacks cheats. Harden up sunshine I assure you it goes both ways.

  • @UHtiger lmao which country took nz under there wing and tought them everything they know about rugby league, dont bullshit and make up false stories about aussies treating nz the same way the kiwis treated the wallabies in the wc, there are masses of aussies that support the nz warriors as there first team. maybe kiwis r that dumb that they think the entire aus camp was q cooper, most aussies know that the two kiwis in rob deans and q cooper are the very hinderance of our squad.

  • @UHtiger hahahahahaha did u actually watch da wc final? if u did u must of been busy crapping on bout how nz is the 3rd best sporting nation in da world cause they gt away wit murder, while france copped penalties dat nz were getting away wit, seriously da ref must have been scared 2 be da one dat controlled da game dat da allblacks lost, cause we all know bout da kiwis abillity to CONSTANTLY TALK bout refs being da cause of der consistant choking at world cups,wayne barnes 2007 ring bells?

  • @UHtiger anyway your gonna have to wait another 24 years until u have home ground advantage 2 win another world cup, while aus win there world cups away from home without the benefit of the ref taking into consideration we r the hosts, so enjoy cause you wont get away with the same tactics while other countries r the host, so you will have 2 choke legally 4 24 more years, and dont say its only aussies dat believe u gt away wit murder cause most other countries know it aswell, it was clear as day

  • Its funny how the Kiwis brag so much about rugby when they are with wales the only countries that has rugby union as there no1 sport, its pathetic, its like if the americans hypothetically bragged and boasted that they are the best nation in grid iron or the irish bragged about being the best at gaelic football hahahaha. get over yourselves play competetively in a few sports then come and brag and boast about how awesome u r and how crap every other nation is.

  • those golden days r long gone, I understand we have a rivalry but that sort of disrespect in da 2011 world cup went way past rivalry, players have always mouthed at each other but never have i seen da entire nz croud shame aus in front of da world like that, yet which country was da first to come to the aid of the christchurch earth quake? but da croud would rather cheer 4 da likes of russia,italy,ect who never lifted a finger in aid. my father is maori n he was discusted by da kiwis behaviour.

  • the mutual respect has gone after 2011 rwc, aussies dont c the kiwis the same anymore after the OVER BOARD disrespect the kiwis showed to wallabies, australia is the first country to come to new zealands aid in disasters physically and financially, and aus open there shores to the almost millions of kiwis living here and yet they acted like aus is the taliban, i have never seen such disrespect from the kiwis towards aus even though we have such strong bonds like anzac for example.

  • Why don't the Aussies devise a War Dance to showcase their primitive instincts before big games. Its not beyond their intelligence, surely !! Or better still, send a coupla guys to NZ to learn how to dance the basics of the Haka - . . you gotta paint your face black to give yourselves a fierce but not too hostile a look, get it??. . .you can even try it in the nude, surely no one can possibly object to that !!. . but bring granny to watch, she'll faint with horror!!

  • Rugby is not only about defense. It's about bringing the ball to Touchdown..

  • rugby doesn't have a terrible defensive game, since the ball is never "stopped" until someone scores

  • you cant satisfy any of these chumps. When the boys are scoring tries, entertaning the crowd you give em shit for bad defense. When there's no tries due to tight defense, everyone yells BORING! I'd rather see them scoring tries any day.

  • the golden days

  • 1:33 That was a very masculine moment.

  • @ WhiskerScot569 I completely agree most of my best mates I made through rugby who do u play 4?

  • Perfection one of new Zealand v Australias best ever games

  • This is beautiful

  • Rugby game was beast

  • What a player Stirling Mortlock was

  • christian cullen still the best fullback ever fact
