british lions scuppered

<< < (2/2)

Jan:
:(  Not the score we wanted ..... thought it may have been a little bit closer  :(

strapping young lad:
the score we wanted was to beat the all blacks but they were a different class today.

henry knew what he was doing and knew what woodward was up to.

Manicminer:
The opposition said on Friday that we were putting a weak side out.

strapping young lad:
do you really think that graham henry would risk his neck and put a weak side out against the lions.

its been said time and again that the people of NZ's pride rests on the all blacks

my mate says we dont have the same thing here,

some people support football, some rugby, but it seems they have utter devotion to the oval ball over there

it was said in the last couple of days richie mccaw (flanker) was constantly in the papers as he might not play due to an injury, on par with the beckhams in the media in the uk.

unlike european countries, if you want to play for NZ you have to play IN NZ. this used to be the same for South Africa till Percy montgomery got picked whilst playing for newport.

gary teichmann who used to captain the springboks had retired from internaitonal rugby and came to wales to play, but i dont think he played for SA and for newport.

DIE BOK:
Die bok's did not do too bad though :wink:
