All Blacks Choke.
 
Life Doesn't get any sweeter than watching an All Black Defeat. Us Aussies cop grief all year in Sydney by "our frunds frum Acruss thu duch". I would like a dollar for every time in the last few months I have heard " the kiwis are coming to get ya". There must be a god!!! What ya wanna be, I wanna be a wallaby!!!!

Just watched England produce an awesome display to put away the much fancied French. What a mouth watering prospect to look forward to next Saturday, England v Australia... can't wait!

Capt Homesick 17th Nov 2003 00:02

Just out of curiosity: what is this to do with military aviation?

I_stood_in_the_door 17th Nov 2003 02:58

And the pods to whinge, moan and bitch for the rest of eternity. :ok:

How did the Invasion of the Bodysnatchers reference get in here?....

BEagle 18th Nov 2003 14:09

What has any of this to do with this forum?

Brain Potter 18th Nov 2003 16:19

I heard that Jonny Wilkinson likes the AIrbus tanker, whilst Martin Johnson prefers the Boeing.

Cue BEagle....

OBNO 18th Nov 2003 16:31

England v France semi must have been one of the most boring games of rugby I have seen.

CrabInCab 18th Nov 2003 17:11

OBNO or should that be NOB O, it's called adapting your game plan to the conditions!

:zzz:

Grimweasel 18th Nov 2003 17:18

well imagine that!

changing your tactics to suit the conditions? no doubt the aussies will call it cheating, bloody poms!

i'm with you crab - c'mon england!

BEagle, are you a kiss baller or an egg chucker yourself?

What are 'Pods' and why will they whinge?

Ironic that Australians (with their incessant whining on and chip-on-the-shoulder attitude) should accuse anyone else of whingeing....

FEBA 18th Nov 2003 17:24

OBNO
You're right. It didn't hold a candle to the last Cook Cup match (recently) when Australia took a sound drubbing from England. Now that was a match. :ok:
As for the relationship of this thread to this forum
Lt Josh Lewsey is a serving Army Officer (Mat Roger's best mate)
F/Lt Underwood is advising the team
Col M Johnson (A330 tanker advocate) is leading it
The Royal Navy has already sent the Aussies a strong warning by ramming their island with HMS Nottingham.
Tenuous links I know, but links none the less ;)

BEagle 18th Nov 2003 17:55

Hmm, OK then.

But I'm most certainly not a kiss-ball kevball fan. Round balls are reserved for cricket (though England probably don't know that); footballs have pointed ends!

And croquet old boy!

BEagle 18th Nov 2003 18:44

But of course!

I_stood_in_the_door 19th Nov 2003 00:00

..........and 1st officer underwood (the other one)is flying them home in his eay jet. after winning superstars!

england by 15points, anyone?

as to the other whineing southern hemisphere chap who says that a drop goal should not be worth 3 points - who remembersyou if you come 3rd or 4th?

sorry to be negative, but i think mr lewsey handed in the queens commission, chaps.

On the pretext of Typhoon duty I had to endure that enormous drubbing (1999?) in the Suncorp Stadium when JW was but a nonentity. With (then BAe) unlimited dollar vouchers, I confidently booked the VIP box mit several F-111 guests from dusty Amberley. My abiding (multi-VB assisted or other Q'Land brew) memory is of F-111 Nav telling me , 'No worries Mxx, you were in our 'arf once, -- when you kicked 'orf'. Bastard. And now we're going to make up. What was you called?

Anf if rugby ain't nothin' to do with mil-aircrew, stick to soccer --

FEBA 19th Nov 2003 03:01

I blocked the Door

i think mr lewsey handed in the queens commission
May be, but once in your never out.

As an original rugby-playing Scot who has lived here for twenty-odd years, I have a foot in both camps. I will barrack for neither team, but have a sneaky hope that England will get up and take the trophy while I imbibe a few of the amber nectars as I watch it on wide-screen! No, the France match was not a greatly edifying spectacle, in Rugby terms, but this Saturday evening has the potential for a match of truly epic proportions, I only hope each team plays the way each can, as well as taking a lesson from the French in how NOT to play.

smartman, you disappoint me, VB is a Victorian brew, not to be confused with that awful rubbish from north of two borders. Truth to tell, my Heaven would be complete were I able to sit and watch the game with a DECENT beer in hand!

Kind regards, and best wishes to both camps,

TheNightOwl.:ok:
