What a cracking game tonight the All Blacks played anaginst Australia in the opener for the Bledisloe Cup and Tri-Nations tournaments.
This All Black team wasn't really firing after the great tana Umaga left, till now. I think they were awesome in defence (as was Aussie in some respects) and their fast running and ingenuity with the ball was stunning.
All Black rugby continues to get better and better for the viewer. I used to think it was great in the days of Kirwan and Inga, but the players now would leave them for dust.
So, who are you betting on winning the Bledisloe this year? I think it may be the AB's again from what I've seen tonight. Half the first string Wallabies seemed to get hurt badly tonight. Gregan's past it. They're ill-disciplined compared to the NZ'ers too.
