Luckily I have a policy about not messing with guys physically challenged to myself, or you might have been toasted saying something like that

Odds on look on as most sports punters would say!. In the interests of having a bet going though, and just to make a neutral result game more exciting, Nonu is paying 3.35 to score a try. Free beer here we come

I am willing to put my nuts on the line and say unequivocally that the AB's will win. Small or large margin, they will win.

Am I the only one willing to step up? Get off the fence and vote for who you think will win before the game commences

Quickly going to gym on this fine Sunday morn and will be back to see the Haka and how the French respond to that.Maybe they step up to ABs in a line like they did in the quarters 2007.
three and a half hours to go.Yeahhh !!! BTW,for the final,the French had the right to play in their strip.NZ would have been in grey.The French then said,that the ABs can play in their traditional black and the French will play in white jerseys.It is out of respect for the host nation,for hosting a fine world cup and for the way they and the other teams were received in NZ.I think it is a mighty fine gesture from the French. |

Enthralling game...Weepu's kicking has been awful and Joubert is not pinging ABs for offside, they are in front of the last feet on defence about 90% of the time.
Overall ABs still a better side and I think they will take Billy home. |

if the french keep up this pace, weepu's missed chances will prove to be crucial.

The AB deserved to win the cup for the way they have played throughout the tournament. The French deserved to win the game today.
That's it for another four years, gents!

Well done New Zealand. France played better than I thought they would though. A win is a win.

Congrats All Blacks, it was a tough game, a tough tournament in fact. Lots of injuries, but it was the strength of endurance that got them across the line.
I was surprised that Weepu missed those 3 goal kicks, and then kicking the ball out and kicking it into the arms of the French. That was almost a losing play for the All Blacks. Cruden getting injured was a massive blow....pretty surprising how valuable a player he was, given he was called up during the tournament to play (while he was out on his skateboard ). Anyway a deserving win for the All Blacks.

The moments of the World Cup:
Boks beating Wales undeservedly Boks losing against Aus,undeservedly France beating England France losing against Tsonga Frans Steyn out. Dan The Man Carter out. Bryce Bl**** Lawrence Wales captain's redcard Stephen Donald ....4th flyhalf,slotting the one that mattered France in the final.Gave much more than expected. All Blacks finally breaking the drought,second time since 1987 Nice story abour Stephen Donald ...... Coach phones Stephen Donald.He is somewhere fishing.Ignores the three calls,then gets a "not so friendly" text message from Mils Muliaina.....and Donald plays in the final |

Well done to the AB's. I thought the French did pretty well considering. The AB's were the best team throughout the tournament and deserved to win on home soil.
Enlgand need to sort themselves out if they want to win in 2015.
