RWC FINAL - MATCH THREAD
First topic message reminder :
It's the AB's vs. Les Bleus.
I can't belive there are only 80 minutes of this great tournament left.
Here's hoping for a great game, and the best team winning.
Let's hear you thoughts on the match here.

True. Whoever scores in the first ten minutes in the second half will boss it. They need that psychological advantage. I wonder if someone else will take over kicking duties from Weepu - I notice Daag was doing a bit (badly).

A proper tense final so far. Enjoying it. Yes some decisions have gone against the French but they're still in it. The decisions might even out next half for all we know.

Re: RWC FINAL - MATCH THREAD
Although i'm slating Joubert I can honestly say I don't mind who wins, if NZ win they are deserved winners on their form over the last 12 - 24 months, and if France win it'll be baffling but will highlight the inability of refs at this world cup, similar to England making the 2007 final highlighted psychological factors, and the emphasis on mindset in the knockout stages, something France got right and Wales got wrong I might add, you don't go into games trying to win, you try not to lose or make mistakes!!!
My point is as a neutral i'm dying for Joubert to give the French the half dozen penalties they deserve, and give us a clean and open contest in every phacet!

Well, Not quite the high scoring game that every body has been talking about.
Is another All Black upset on the cards?
Did McCaw knee Para in the head deliberately?
Lets hope the second half is as exciting as the first half.

I hope the referee isn't going to go the other way and start pinging NZ all the time....he needs to be neutral.
Oh dear. French penalty missed.

Re: RWC FINAL - MATCH THREAD
Are we missing the big picture here? The one defining factor of this world cup has to be the worst ball in the history of the game!
Watching the Dragons Wasps last night there were penalties from the touchlines, drop goals from 30 yards and 22 to 22 kicks, from both sides!

Oh dear, France give away a penalty right in front of the posts. Massive pressure on Donald - his first AB kick in a world cup final. No pressure....
oooooh and he just gets it!

Re: RWC FINAL - MATCH THREAD
I'm really disappointed with Joubert so far. Lets Woodcock basically try to take off FTD's head there, and then pings the French for not rolling away in the first micro-second, something he seems to have let NZ take hours to do...

I was surprised that Parra's injury wasn't analysed at h/t. I wonder why not.
