I was watching sportsnet this am before I headed off to work-where I sit now waiting to open up-bah.
Anyway,they were giving the Canadian schedule 3:30 am for most.Maybe I'll get up a couple hours early in Oct to watch Canada thrash the All Blacks.  ;D
I'd rather a full bottle in front of me than a full frontal lobotomy.

That should narrow it down ::) Why don't you strip to the waist,paint yourself,wear a funky hat and dance throughout the stands?That should get you on camera at least once. :)

Oh yeah,I liked that swan dive over the board after that little tap by the frenchie.He must have thought he was in a soccer game  :o

It was a good game.
Some of the outfits were as funny as hell.
Pity it pissed down with rain just as we got there. :(
Lucky we had a little bit of pre game juice in us to keep warm. ;)

I hope you had some post game juice as well :D I never did get the final score.I assume Canada lost.
Interestingly,every "Canadian" team member I've seen interviewed had a NZ or Aussie accent. ::)

Yes they lost. But they gave the French a hurry up.

Thats pretty normal amongst the smaller teams.
Japan has half a dozen , USA has a few.
I did think that most of the Canadian's were just that.
Even Aussie has quite a few kiwi players in the team. Bloody traitors.
Their "star" 1st five is a kiwi. And they can keep him. ;D

That doesnt look as impressive when a middle aged white guy with a beer pot does it. ;)

I am going to the Canada V Japan game on Tuesday.
Should be a good even game.
Then we have a boys trip to Wellington on saturday to the NZ v Canada game on sunday.
We might go to the France v Tonga game on saturday if we can get tickets.
Should be a fun weekend. ;D

I watched the NZ v Canada game in Paris at the 91' world cup and Canada gave us a bit of a fright. :-X
Not sure about this time ford. ;)
