      They go pretty well at RWC time don't they? My memory suggests their record has been pretty good over the last few tournaments

        Oh, this is bloody, gloriously priceless. Sir Clive Woodwhinge profiles the Teams and here he is on NZ.

        ""Key man: Tempting to say Beauden Barrett, their best player, but actually the man who cements the backs together is Sonny Bill Williams.

        Rising star: Richie Mo’unga, a quality new No10 but it’s his goal-kicking New Zealand need most.

        Weaknesses: Very few, but lost occasional matches through goal kicking, hence spotlight on Mo’unga.*

        Does he know BB generally takes the kicks when RM is playing & SBW is rarely fully fit?

        And we think the likes of Rattue don't actually watch games....

                      @booboo maybe he thinks all Kiwis look the same, cos I'd say Crotty is more likely the guy that brings everything together, I guess its easy to see how he could mix those 2 up though.

                              The winner of the Parliamentary Rugby World Cup, by virtue of a golden try in overtime is... NZ.

                                  Well I know everyone is eagerly awaiting the news, so I'll steal @antipodean thunder...

                                  The winner of the Parliamentary Rugby World Cup, by virtue of a golden try in overtime is... NZ.

                                  Thunder well stolen. Too busy drinking with the teams. Great game played in excellent spirit and genuinely nice guys. Looking forward to doing it all again in France.

                                      @Toddy After how well they did against Ireland with party Chicago distractions, this is may not be a good thing

                                          Great news re BBBR. The chances of a redislocation is relatively high though which is a worry.
