Still psyched!!

I'm still very happy over the All Blacks win in the RWC Grand Final. Everyday I think about it and everyday it never gets anymore boring. The Kiwis will be celebrating for the next four years until the next World Cup. The AB's have paraded over the country, showing off the Webb Ellis Cup. GO THE ALL BLACKS!!

THE MIGHTY CHAMPIONS!!

As most of the World knows by now, the New Zealand rugby team, the All Blacks have conquered the title of Rugby Champs. 80 minutes of gruelling rugby and NZ comes out on top. The final score in the New Zealand vs France score was 8-7. Piri Weepu missed all three of his kicks. But he played really well. Sadly, he had to go off and Andy Ellis took his place. Aaron Cruden did a job on his knee. They replayed it many times, but we couldn't watch it. The look of pain on his face. Stephen Donald had to come in for him. He got one penalty kick. The AB's didn't play a spectacular game. They gave the ball over to France too many times. But we got there in the end. France's defense was veeeeeeeery on to it. NZ didn't get many amazing runs like France. As the clock ticked over 80 minutes we were all gripping the edges of our seats. Finally, Andy Ellis got hold of the ball and kicked it into touch. Dad was jumping up and down, waving his arms and yelling, "blow the whistle ref!!! Blow it!!!" And he blew it. Then we all lost it. Yelling and jumping, screaming and still trying to watch the tv. The All Blacks now have the Webb Ellis Cup for four years. After a while, we calmed down and watched the All Blacks get their gold medals. I got a surprise - a very nice one - when Mils Muliana got his medal too. Then Colin Slade and Dan Carter. Poor Cruden on his crutches. Richie McCaw recieved the cup and kissed it. They all crowded in for the photo and sprayed champagne everywhere. Ma'a Nonu's wouldn't spray very well, so he just tipped it on everyone. Later, he was seen rubbing his eyes. You know, fizzy wasn't made for eyes!! Well, if you didn't watch the game, you don't need to, as I have filled you in on all the juicy bits. GO THE MIGHTY ALL BLACKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Piri Weepu

Piri Weepu, father of two beautiful girls and the star of the All Blacks, recently lost his grandfather. His family kept it from him because he was going to play a big match. That shows family support for him. Piri's grandfather watched down on him as he played a magnificent game against Australia. Piri didn't mange to convert all of his tries, but he had a lot on his mind. We love you Piri, play hard. xox

We love you Mils!

Mils Muliaina played his last game as an All Black against Argentina. It was his 100th test match. Mils has been such an amazing player - one of my favourites - and I'll be very sorry to see him go. We all will. Mils managed to charge through the opposition, with such force, that I would hate to get in his way. He had some awesome runs and i just don't want him to go. Sadly, a fractured shoulder is too much. Mils, I wish you the best with your future. I'm so sorry, but understand it was for the best. xox

GO ALL BLACKS!!!

I am a true Kiwi. And so into the Rugby World Cup. Especially because All Blacks are best team in the World!! If I was a Namibian, I don't know if I would be so interested!! I'm looking forward to the game this Sunday, NZ vs Canada. I have predicted that NZ will win 66 - 22. Well, hopefully, Canada won't get any tries and we'll get in the 300s, but I don't think that will happen!! At Otewa School, we have really been getting into Rugby World Cup spirit. Before the important games, we do our picks. And one Friday, we all wore black and white and played rugby based games. Rugby relays, rugby netball and ripper rugby. We've made a huge sign that goes on our fence. There are ten corrugated iron rugby balls that we painted black and wrote ALL BLACKS on in white. They look REALLY impressive and you wouldn't believe that  a bunch of kids had made them - with help for the teachers of course!! GO ALL BLACKS AND GOOD LUCK FOR YOUR  FUTURE GAMES!!!
