Rugby World Cup Final - France v New Zealand

[Beach Hut]

Will this be a total landslide victory for the All Blacks or will we finally see the flair and true colours of "Les Bleus" ?

I really hope a different french team turns up tomorrow..........

 

[Marc1901]

NZ will wipe the floor with the IMO.

 

[DumLum]

New Zealand 1/8 with the bookies.

 

[Frutos]

I expect a comfortable NZ victory.

Not that their players usually need any help getting motivated, but if a World Cup Final in front of your home fans can't bring the best out of you then nothing will.

Rugby World Cup final: New Zealand v France

Im going for New Zealand by 20 in this game cant see them losing this.

 

[drop dead fred]

Yes can see a right good thrashing coming up
Even though France are in the final they have been pretty
Poor all world cup

"We are the frogs, we are the frogs, we are we are we are the frogs!" C'mon, Surely you've got to support our fellow Europeans and NH representatives against the All Blacks who are evil personified?

But yeah, sadly I can't seen anything other than a comfortable NZ victory. That's the worst thing about rugby, in football you can be the inferior side, get absolutely battered for 90 minutes but win with a breakaway goal. In rugby the dominant team on the day always wins.

All Blacks by around 10–12 points, I reckon. Have them in the office sweepstake. 220 Dhs (£37) coming my way!

However will be stuck in a client meeting throughout the game. Arse to the Sun–Thurs working week we have over here....

Did you watch the Australia v south Africa quarter final??
One of the most one sided matches you will ever see

 

[Bring back Bryan wade!!]

NZ will win but by no more than 10-12 points

 

[Beach Hut]

Superb mind games by the French with a V arrow at the Haka taking the sting out of it.

Mind you I think the Haka should be banned as pointless

 

[Gus is god]

hows that for ya world cup début a world cup final

 

[tedebear]

I can't support the Kiwis - and not allowed to support the French - so I am showing no allegance and swearing at them all

 

[Icy Gull]

Potential choke here

 

[patchamalbion]

having watched the first half and knowling little about rugby i for some reason and now supporting the French.

for a world cup final with the host nation in the final atmosphere seems crap

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Would be the ultimate choke if NZ failed to beat this French side. It's amazing that France have even reached the final, they have been so poor throughout. We think England had problems- France's players have been openly slagging off their coach throughout. Although not going out on the piss as far as I'm aware.

Hope NZ do it, as there's no way France are the best side in the world. Even Wales were better.

 

[Fur Cough]

France looking good now.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Oooh. France to within a point. Here's the real test.

 

[Seasider78]

Where on earth have France pulled this performance from. You can feel the tension in crowd and getting to players.

 

[Kuipers Supporters Club]

Cheered when France scored, I just want a close game...Or a Drop Goal shoot out.
