        Boks RWC record is great, but nothing has changed from back in 07 when they had two wins to our one - I'd still rather our head to head with them.

                  I guess it’s one way to overcome the mental hurdle of QF anguish.

                    She's aliiive!

                    Verified sighting by English journalist:

                    @Machpants said in All Blacks 2024 - looking forward:

                    England won't be scared of aura

                    https://www.nzherald.co.nz/sport/rugby/all-blacks/all-blacks-are-in-a-state-of-flux-and-england-can-take-advantage/SD7MDBBNQRBK7OFGOSLNCF4XUM/

                    But even if England were to fall to a 2-0 series defeat, it would not have been due to them fearing the All Blacks’ aura.

                      Still ticking, if you ask if they have lost their aura, then you know they haven't, despite foodies best efforts

                        Still going baby

                        Above all, though, it is simply that their old aura is slowly being chipped away in a modern world where, as one All Black assistant coach conceded, there is almost nothing new under the tactical sun.

                          "I think the aura and the respect that we have for them is as high as it has ever been," George told BBC Sport.

                                  I see England played in white at the Euros today to steal a bit of aura off the
                                  All Whites. And it worked for them. Absolutely shameless.

                                        While I think Squidge is overrated, I'd rather his videos than some random South African kid who was given a microphone for his birthday.

                                          Like the rumble before an earthquake, you know Aura is due to re-appear when the haka articles start appearing in the British press.
