Rugby World Cup 07

My god new zealand has had a bad year at sport, we lost the americas cup, the super 14, the rugby world cup, Shane Cameron got his first loss at boxing, and the Kiwi rugby league team got smashed.

:( :( :(
 
Bah. It's TEST cricket. Remember that? Not only are we hopeless at it, but we haven't played it for a year. That we got thrashed in the first test is the least surprising sporting result of the year.

You just lost the Netball World Cup - what else is left to lose? :p

Nothing wrong with test cricket, would be nice if we didn't suck at it but thats the way it goes sometimes
 
Considering England and Australias best footballers all play Rugby League I commend both sides.........maybe the winners of the Super League and NRL should get a start in the rugby union world cup ,now THAT I would watch:)
 
Rugby League is a completely different sport so no point harping on about comparisons like that. Different skillset, different play style, and to a large extent, different audiences.

At least the Rugby Union World Cup has more than 1 team in it, unlike the Rugby League World Cup, which has one good team and a bunch of others that just make up the numbers (or in the case of teams like Lebanon, are made up of Australians anyway).

My harping is probably due to finding a topic I vaguely know something about........after 244 newbish Civ posts I probably got carried away:)
