Who will win the tri-nations?

[ainwood]

Not yet. We're still ahead on points differential.

I think it may come down to weather in SA. Whoever gets a rainy day will find it much harder to score 4 tries for a bonus point.

And actually, I don't think we've done too badly at the CG.

Yeah, heres one. Women run the country.

Three years in a row the Aussies have won the Blesisloe cup like this now. Where is the justice?

Humm sorry I was a bit slow to come in gloating about our marvelous last gasp (yet again!) victory.

Just wanted to ask. Was is it with Kiwis? Why do you guys always choke at the final moment? I mean take the Bledisloe Cup in any recent year, or a cracking example is the women's netball final at the c.games last weekend. Both games u had it, it was yours but u just couldn't handle the pressure at the final hurdle. I asked my flatmates this (two kiwis!) they are too incensed to talk about it

The Tri Nations is as good as won by New Zealand now. At least some silverware is coming back to where it belongs. 4 tries and winning by 26 points is next to impossible in Jo'burg. No middle aged, fat, mad Jarpie supporters will be needed to come to the Springboks aid this week.

Given

I do believe that New Zealand won three out of four, and the one they lost was by one point in the last seconds of the game. The springboks only won one from four, and suffered one of their worst defeats ever against NZ.

NZ surely deserved to win it, but changes were the BOks would lose against the Aussies with 26 points.

I'm glad they didn't!

They were lucky winning the game against NZ.

crap. That is the catch cry of every new zUlander everytime they lose, I see the saffas are jumping on the bandbangon now.

I can't wait for the world cup so we can sort you both out once again.

Maybe a good thing you don't have to play qualifiers?
