NZ All Blacks vs XV de France today!

[ysabel]

There's a rugby test match today in Marseilles.

As far as I can recall, their last meet was during the Rugby World Cup. I watched that and boy, what a game that was! I hope to see a similar show this time (and why not same winner, haha).

No doubt someone in my house will be watching this match. I won't watch it but of course i'll be supporting the All Blacks

When I worked on Glasgow Hilton hotel over 10 years ago, I met the All Blacks. I am not a small guy, but they were all at the reception desk, and they made me look like a midget. There was one guy shorter than me, but he was huge in breadth.
That's my Rugby claim to fame.

Hey at least here, using the "hand" is allowed, hahaha.

I like watching the haka but I know some of the kiwis are prolly tired of seeing it.

The All Blacks were wearing...white!

And they dominated the match: 39 - 12

Go All blacks =D

I'm a big New Zealand supporter, and am actually surprised you follow Rugby Isabel hehe.

Weird, why the hell were they wearing white? Good to see we got a win though.

KIA ORA TAO PAI!

That's the way Kiwis rep =D

I'm surprised France didn't put up a better fight.

Well now that they had a good win with it, maybe they'll start wearing it more. :lol:

I'm disappointed with our plays. I watched the game later but it seems we had too much difficulty getting a touchdown. Our score is mostly for drops.

I think you mean "Try", I can totally see how you can confuse the two mind you.

New Zealand have a lot of solid players, and owe alot of victories to their ball skills and their kicker Dan Carter.

France is a very good team, but seems to rely a lot on the offense without a proper defense.

Oh dur, yes, the try. I was busy trying to explain rugby to my American friend earlier so I kept on using "this is like your touchdown", haha.
