Should've, Would've, Could've

What a SHOCKING! weekend in the Rugby World Cup. Australia and New Zealand are going home and the Boks are the new favourites closely followed by France. What we all want to know is what happened to Australia and the ABs. Well the only people that can tell you that are the people who were on the field. England were just the hungrier side in game one and the ABs just did not play their game and made too many errors, but credit to France for forcing and capitalising on the errors in game two. This weekend marked a historic moment in New Zealand rugby, it is the first time they have not been able to make the semifinals, and the funny thing is that the class of '07 had been put up there with the greatest All Black side of all time.

Honestly the World Cup -for the ABs- has become like that girl who got away in High School. The one you bump into every now and then and you flirt with her but nothing happens at the end of the day. The Abs have been favourites how many times and flirted with the Trophy for so long but they are still waking up alone. Its one of those things you feel that when it happens it is going to be like a wedding. You finally get the girl and you are together for a long time. The question is when is it going to happen because I really hope it happens in my lifetime.

hey boy

yours truly is taking a forced hiatus from the blog to reflect on my undying loyalty to a team that has let me down too many times at crucial moments and so like everyoen else in this country i will choose to silent and not mention a word about rugby indefinitely!

Hey boy its an awesome sport and no matter what the ABs play the sport better than anyone else. This has happened 4 times now you and the whole country should be used to it. I am struggling but hey life goes on and love the sport more than I love the all blacks so I won't let them kill it or me.
