That was edge of the seat stuff for a bit last night - not only did the Pumas stop us scoring, then score themselves ... but they had the lead on us and created some very nervous moments for All Black fans last night. Were we going to be knocked out again?!

Putting aside the Daniel Carter heartbreak, let’s not forget the All Blacks have been formidable for 100 years (and Dan has only been around for about eight of those). This is a team sport.

The great number 9 debate of the All Blacks

The great number 9 debate of the All Blacks | RWC - Rugby World Cup 2011 | Scoop.it

New Zealand have three half backs. Piri Weepu. Andrew Ellis. Jimmy Cowan. Piri has a lion heart. He can kick goals and play first five if need be. Sure, he might not be the leanest man on the field, but he is one of the nicest afterwards, plus he knows how to play the big games. But is he up there with the Genia’s or Du Preez’s of the world. We all know, probably not.

Official RWC 2011 Site - Quarter-finals review: Winning ways

Official RWC 2011 Site - Quarter-finals review: Winning ways | RWC - Rugby World Cup 2011 | Scoop.it

Emboldened youth, wounded pride, stalwart defence and strength in depth inspire Wales, France, Australia and New Zealand to the semis...


Wales have been showered in praise following their imposing 22-10 quarter-final win over Ireland, a performance built around a two-pronged defensive tactic they will likely stick to moving forward.


It is difficult to know exactly what to make of France at this tournament. They appear to be a bipolar outfit capable of winning through pure passion one day and losing with utter disinterest the next.


Australia tackled themselves to a standstill in their epic 11-9 win over South Africa. The committed performance showed the Wallabies are able to shelve their natural running game in favour of a tight and torrid arm wrestle when the situation demands it.


A week ago Aaron Cruden was watching RWC 2011 from his lounge room. Now it appears the 22-year-old playmaker will be handed the vast responsibility of guiding the All Blacks into the final.

A fine effort from Argentina, but in the end the All Blacks had too much class for the South Americans. Piri Weepu had an outstadning game and thoroughly deserved the man-of-the-match award. Full-time score: New Zealand 33 Argentina 10.

It is not always the whack and clatter of rugby that the whirr and click of cameras capture. The rough and tumble action is the primary lens target but the sport can also be the subject of moving and artistic images.

A good team, not a great team. Argentina have a willing forward pack but they leave rather a lot to be desired when it comes to attack. Wonderful supporters, and it will be fantastic to see them in the four nations next year. I will eat my hat if they become the All Black banana skin. Man, I’ve read this back and I sound so condescending. I don't mean to be, and I will be the first to doff my hat (and then eat it) if I’m proven wrong. I just can't really see it happening this time although if they take the All Blacks close, well that would be good. (But not that close).
