Congratulations to the Wallabies beating England in the Rugby World Cup and basically eliminated the Host !!
Congratulations to the Wallabies beating England in the Rugby World Cup and basically eliminated the Host !!
And congratulations to Steve Smith and his NSW Team in winning the Matador One Day Cup matches vs CXI, winning by 279 runs !!
Captain Smith was 143 no out, hitting 5 Six and 10 Fours !!
But the Man of the Match went to Mitchell Starc who took 6 wicket from 25 runs, the CXI was all out for only 54 in 24.4 overs !!
Bring on New Zealand !!
Yes, they didn't need put a gold jersey the scrum machine and send that out after all - they fixed the problems in their own! Well done, and ! don't want to be pessimistic - but I still remember the recent hammering the All Blacks gave them in the Bledisloe, if they get that far!
The key is to beat Wales next match and top the group! Then we shouldn't meet the All Blacks until the final !Quote:

Any one start believing ??
BTW, what's your take on the game between Wallabies and Wales ??
15-6, 5 penalties vs 2 ! NO TRY !!
It's basically a semi final for both teams and yet no one could cross to score. In comparison to any of the NRL Final matches, I know which code I will be watching !!
Great, plenty of Sports coming!
anything can happened in sport. We did beat them at the Championship 3 months ago and lost when we play against them in NZ.
Compare to 3 months ago, I think the Wallabies has improved so much in defend and Foley is very reliable in his kicking.
Don't forget New Zealand must play Frances in the Quarter Final and potentially Semi with the South African. We the Wallabies will have an much easier path to play Scotland and Ireland
Go the WALLABIES.
Congrats to Daniel Cormier beating Alexander Gustaffson to retain his title. Now can he win the rematch with Jones?
I think Cormier has a good chance, after the long layoff, not sure if Jon Jones is still mentally and physically up for the task !Quote:

Congratulations to the Wallabies for making the Rugby World Cup Final to meet the All Blacks next Sunday !!
First time ever the ANZ teams meeting each other in a World Cup Final !!
If we can beat the All Blacks this time, it will erase all the pains of the recent Bledisloe Cup loses !!
Go the Aussie !! :shout:
The All blacks caned the French 62 -10 or something and then had a bit of a stumble against South Africa winning by only two points.
Maybe they peaked with the French and are on a slight downwards slide. Well, that is something to hold onto anyway.
The All Blacks beat South Africa 20-18, scoring 2 tries to nil.Quote:

Both Finalist had managed to keep their try line intact in the Semi Finals, on paper, the Wallabies had a more impressive score line but for about 20 min in the second, the Puma was looking quite dangerous to level the score. A break from Drew Mitchell from the left edge and great run through the field to find Adam Ashley-Cooper on the right and the hat-trick hero just put the icing on the cake.
You would hope the semi between the All Blacks and the Springboks in the wet conditions would have taken a lot more out of the team then the Wallaby game last night, I think the defense of the Wallabies in this World Cup has improved a lot and the team is full of confidence, Popcock is now the equal of McKaw, If we ever gonna beat the All Blacks in a final, this is as good a chance as ever !!
The first test against New Zealand is under way!
Warner and Burns got us to a great start, 0/100 at lunch.
Now 1/197
Warner on 99!
Wow, hit and miss and the keeper took the stump !
Now has to wait for the next over !
Khawaja starts well too, goes to 27 very quickly 1/205 !
Finally, Warner hits a 2, and gets another century ! His first as the Vice Captain!
Excellent works from Warner, 163!
Great to see Khawaja got a century too !
And Captain Smith, a rapid fire 41 no at Stumps ! 2 for 389, the Aussies are clearly on top !
I think Steve Smith will declare when he makes a century or when we reach 550 today !!
Go Aussie !
We can't beat the All Blacks
Let's put the Black Caps to the sword !
Not a bad prediction, been watching it today, and they were talking about Richard Haddley, I don't know if your old enough to remember the time he destroyed Australia in the Test in Brisbane in the 80's I was just a little guy, but he was a true great. I think that was the test Greg Matthews also got his first Test 100?
Sorry mate, when it comes to cricket, I'm just a beginner ! And way back when I was getting interested in Lara Bingo before I know who is Michael Clarke !!Quote:
