Who's pumped and who thinks the Wallabies can win??

I think we're a massive chance!

I've made plans for that morning. It'll be 10am here in the US when the game is on and it will be on free to air TV! I've made sure the house will be empty. The wife will be at work, kids at their grandparents, dogs will be outside and the phone will be switched off. Nothing but me, my 180cm (70") LED TV, my surround sound speakers turned on and my lounge room blackened like it's midnight.

For those of you who I have on my facebook you all know how much I love rugby.

I can't wait!!!

Go Wallabies!!!
 
I'm not pumped at all. I don't mind watching some of the games but I'm sick of hearing about the spirit of rugby. I wonder how Sol Mokdad feels about this spirit. World Rugby continues to provide tacit support to the local rugby thugs who continue to take the low road in attacking league. In Morocco, UAE, South Africa and elsewhere they turn a blind eye.
 
I love my rugby as well and am greatly looking forward to it.

I think it will be a great game and is the end of an era for the All Blacks. McCaw, Woodcock and Melamu all well over 100 tests and retiring. Ma' Nonu and Dan Carter heading to Europe, with it also tipped to be Conrad Smith's last game. That is some serious talent leaving the setup. With the depth in NZ rugby we probably wont even notice the difference once the new guys come in.

The key for us is the Backrow. If Pocock, Fardy and Hooper can put the pressure on at the breakdown and in the defensive line like they have been and win that battle we can get them for sure.
Only concern is the Kiwi centres have a definite size advantage and maybe able to get them on the front foot if they get quick ball and can isolate Giteau and Foley making one on one tackles, if they get a roll-on on the back of that the Kiwis will wreak havoc.

Hope the scrum holds up as well, it was terrific early, but fell away in the last 2 games. Slipper copped a bath on the weekend (but was a little unlucky with the refereeing at stages)

Either way, Im excited and hope we get em
 
I can't see us winning , but our defence will keep us in the game

Will come down to how well our scrum holds up for the 80
