you have to love those clowns who bet on rugby despite knowing nothing about it.

Nats' Fan · 10-23-11, 03:50 AM

That was the worst half of sports, I've ever witnessed. Don't mean to offend you rugby fans, but come on. Later, y'all. I'm gonna go watch the kanepi match. Later.

You're completely right to mock me. That's what alcohol and degeneracy will do for you.

What is soccer and what is football???

OH, it was definitely a boredom play.

But even if I was watching this match just for entertainment, I would wonder how anyone enjoys watching it.

Of the first 40 minutes, at least 38 of it they were chasing a ball that they just punted out of bounds or huddling in a 'scrum.'

People may say american sports are boring, but come on... this is just hard to watch.

hawley · 10-23-11, 03:54 AM

I dunno... the Kiwis choking is always a good show!! (even if my bets are dead in water)

sweepem · 10-23-11, 04:46 AM

damn the french almost had them.

MCherry281 · 10-23-11, 04:50 AM

I don't know what the hell I was watching but that didn't look good. I kept hearing NZ was free money so I bet them ML. WTF was I thinking. It looked like France had the ball the whole time. I only started watching after it got to 8-7. Horrible stuff. Thank god the clock ran out.

injury time? ... clock stops when someone is injured

Originally posted by priskilla22

This is like american football if you take out every play besides punting. Yuck. How do people enjoy this?

indeed ... it's way better to watch yellow/red flags flying around all the time and huge amounts of commercials ... and watching last week's Cowboys vs Patriots was not a waste of time ...

And congrats hawley!!!

I bet on sports I don't follow all the time, just bet on rogue numbers. As mentioned, I got under 41.5 on this match. I also find quite a fire off lines on Dutch Soccer.

One of the best threads ive read!!!!!

Roxxy is a big rugby square he always loses these.

NZ by 30....

Kiwis are a bunch of fags who are always overrated and choke big.

Yeah the over is going to hit....look at the semis and Q's and that should tell you everything.

Wished I woke up early enough for this. Last I remember, Roxxy had some kangaroos to cover easy and they lost outright obviously.

i read france was the WORST team to ever make the final, and nz was a 16+ point favorite and barely eke out a win, yes i say major choke job

maroona · 10-23-11, 09:57 AM

They only need to win, they didn't go out there and try to cover the line, its amazing that your suggesting a team which just won the world cup choked

To be fair maroona, even the Kiwi announcers kept saying repeatedly through the match how surprised they were by the scoreline and how no one expected it to be close at all. Obviously the team doesn't care to cover the line but they were massive favourites coming in... if that Frenchie had made that final kick, this could've been a very different result when the consensus was that NZ would dominate this match.

RLF · 10-23-11, 10:06 AM

lol bullshit no one expected it to be close.

Anyone who has watched France ever play rugby in NZ knew it would be close.

If you truly believe that, you should open a book because how many people took the Kiwis with the line? Pinny doesn't hang -900 on a team that's expected to play a close match. And it was actually -1300 a minute after the match started. Too many people would jump on the dog if that were the case, just to take a punt. So hopefully you put your whole roll on France + whatever.

RLF · 10-23-11, 10:20 AM

I took the France line with 10 mins to go as expected the money rolled in for NZ. Moved out to 18.5 on Pinny

After NZ lost to France in 2007, the next game they played was in NZ in 2009 - people expected NZ to smash France as revenge, but no France played sublime rugby again with great defence and won by 7. The next game they only lost by 4 in another low scoring encounter. France just play great rugby in NZ.

Good stuff! I actually was going to jump on the France line... not because I had a clue but someone who does told me to hit it but I was like a minute late. That's how I knew Pinny's live line as soon as the match started. But I wasn't taking NZ at -1300 and I wasn't confident in France winning so I just passed on the whole thing. It's pretty crazy though when one team's line covers the total score for the match.

10 minutes to go? the line was 18.5 with 10 minutes left in the match in live betting?

maroona · 10-23-11, 10:34 AM

shari i appreciate your point, the point i was trying to make was that NZ didn't choke, they won, simple, it was never going to be an easy game and the public and books for that matter were going into this match thinking it was a foregone conclusion, strange because line movement in this world cup has been very sharp, not in this case
