All Blacks (17) 30 / Wallabies (0) 14 (Final Score)
The New Zealand All Blacks hosted the Australian Wallabies at Eden Park, Auckland at 09:35 SA Time. This was the match thread for discussion of the game. The match was broadcast live on SuperSport 1, SHD & M-Net on TV in SA.
The All Blacks sailed to a commanding lead early on against a Wallaby side which was unusually error-prone. In the second half the Wallabies tried hard but it was always going to be nigh on impossible to come back from so far behind.

All Blacks: 2 Penalties & 3 Conversions & 1 Drop Goal Dan Carter, 1 Try Ma’a Nonu, 1 Try Keven Mealamu, 1 Try Sitiveni Sivivatu

89@ grootblousmile:

@ Loosehead:
Watch the N.H Game, give you a taste for the WC and you can come back and slag the teams off….
Percy is NO metrosexual by the way, he is just a bit of a poser!! 😉
93 @ Loosehead:
🙂 referring to Wynand does that mean gbs will have to be called Meisiekind from now then 😉
Hello Blue Bird what do you think will happen between England and Wales today?
Congratulations to a champion All Blacks side on a well deserved win. To the victor the spoils.
The Wallabies promised much, but delivered little, so their real chances to take out this RWC have now diminished greatly. A lot of hard work required from the Wallabies over the next few weeks. As for the Wallabies captain, jeez, he was lucky he didn’t got hooked off at half time.
Boks at home next week, so it will be no reprieve for the Wallabies.
103@ Bullscot:
Hey watchit!
Rather call me BigMamma….. hehehe
Oh, by the way boys…
Women LOVE men who can cook and do ‘stuff’ with their offspring, nothing to be shy about this is 2011 not 1911.
Men nowadays seem more masculine if they can effortlessly throw a meal together rather than sit on the sofa nursing a beer!!
Sadly I would be a rubbish bloke, I have never changed a nappy and my cooking is rather feeble!! 🙂
Next Tri-Nations match is this coming Saturday, 13 August, in Durban, Springboks (the real ones) vs Wallabies.
@ Bullscot:
If I was doing a superbru call I would have to say England by 7.
I have been to the Milennium Stadium to see Wales play so many times, they often have a good first half but run out of steam in the second half!!
Whad do you think?
106 @ grootblousmile:
oeps ok sorry 🙂
@ grootblousmile:
I spoke to 4 man yesterday!! 😉
Now why is RT a bit faster refreshing today, it had slowed to snails pace recently?
111@ Blue Bird:
The web hosts in the USA are a bunch of farkers.
111@ Blue Bird:
Did he tell you we had a good party the one night?
109 @ Blue Bird:
I picked England by more than 15, they got a powerful front row and Jonny there and loads of Welsh top players missing, but I didn’t take Millenium stadium into account so maybe it won’t be by as much.
@ grootblousmile:
Oops, I hit a nerve there 🙂
OK must do ‘stuff’ catch you lot later.
Might give you my favourite chutney recipe if you are lucky !! Bwahahahahha
GO E N G L A N D !!!
Yee Haa
@ Bullscot:
If Jonny manages not to get ‘stuffed up’ in the first 10 mins I will be very relieved…..
Your score is probably more accurate, I am always pesemistic about Englands chances btw!! It comes after years of disappointment!! 🙂
Really must get on….see ya
Well done ABs. Have not watched the game yet. But thought they would win it, but not by that much.
Will watch the game later.
