In unprecedented news, the IRB has announced a 7/8th place play off at the RWC. It will be called the Bledisloe cup!
The reason the Aussies didn't make it was down to having a useless scrum, the reasons the Kiwis didn't make it was because they choked on their egos. Its not luck, its heart! England won yesterday in a massively tense game. Both England and France stood up and were counted when it mattered, with England scraping a win. I am fortunate enough to be surrounded by Aussies and Kiwis that always bring out the boring tag. Truth be known, a kiwi would bore us all to death for about 15 years if they ever managed to win an important game. The tales would be told: a 3-0 victory in a rain storm, despite having never left their own half and the opponents having been down to just 3 old ladies forming a front row.
I'd rather be English with a chance to win boring than a sad git that decides he has to pull for the yarpies rather than enjoy a great occasion, just because a naughty playmate went off with his rattle (cup)!
