Well the game versus the All-Blacks sounded like a beat down. SOme sportscasters seemed impressed at how well Canada did but they lost by a huge margin. On a good not IIRC, Canada was the first team to lead the AllBlacks based on a converted penalty but that lead vanished quickly........

It is like playing against a Tsunami with those All Blacks. No chance. Full marks to our guys for their courage. It is our amateurs vs their professionals.

Amazing ability to break down the Canadian's defense, they could have kept the ball all game long basically.

Quick replay as it looks like this thread has pretty much died.
Canada vs New Zealand is like the Lions vs. Rouge et Or. Canada had no chance.
Should be some interetsing Semi Finals. The All Blacks Versus the Walabies could very well be the final. What a tough playoff draw for Australia though. First South Africa and then New Zealand. If they can get through that then they deserve to win it all.

NZ are missing Carter and McCaw is hurting, so the upset could be on. Historically, NZ have blown RWC games.
France don't score a try with a man advantage for 60 minutes. I hope they don't find their game in the next week.
