      The Blacks had Lady Luck on their side. In the context of the entire tournament, however, the right team won.

      How come Sonny Bill barely gets a game?

        The All Blacks didn't play well, they looked unexpectedly beatable by the French, who didn't deserve to win though,
        as they were largely defeated by Eire and dominated by Tonga...
        It would have been a hold-up if they'd won the final!

        Strange that the Blue nearly made it with their supposedly least good team in 20 years.

          I agree - France had their share of Lady Luck's help in their semi-final, anyway.

          I'm still surprised how the NZ team seemed timorous. They'd gone through without any trouble so far... but it's how it goes, sometimes,
          doesn't it?

                  Beware, Sesh, it can be expensive to challenge that thing!

                    Congrats Dan! Glad you guys won it.

                    (Although I suspect after so many years of not winning you finally decided to pull a Costanza and do 'the Opposite'...stay off the root beer!!)

                    Cheers!

                      Yes you are not allowed to challenge an ancient tradition which is almost 6 years old now.

                          You mean 106 years old, I suppose.

                          When I saw the Blue walk forward forming that "V", I thought they would regret it looking at the score in the end of the match -
                          anyway, they were not "V"ictorious, so it was just anecdotical, safe it's a bit ridiculous as they didn't win.

                          That's folklore, and it can be fun, putting a lil spice around the pitch.

                            Here I say 'hats off', Gentlemen!

                            Would it be the same percentage, though, if the final score had been NZ 7 : 8 France ?

                            Just asking!
