Was that the wrongful dismissal of McCallum[sp] Koko? The one I could hear my husband muttering "bl00dy cheating Aussies"?

That was just the first one Maire. It was a Huge mistake by the umpire. I think it was a square up by the umpire as they had given an Aussie out late in their innings when he wasn't really out. An LBW call. The ball was missing the wickets but that had little or less effect on the Aussie innings as it was at the end of their innings but the McCallum one was a shocker as it was right at the beginning of our innings and knocked us around alot, ruining any chance of a good start to our innings.
The one Koko is talking about I think is the one when the Aussie wicket keeper (Hadden) knocked the bales off the wickets with his gloves(hands) instead of the ball getting one of our guys out. Dan Vettori implied he cheated and he did but he and Ricky Ponting took exception to it and cried their eyes out about it the next day when they were interviewed.
Bloody cheating Aussies. They can't help themselves.

That's the one TR.
Maire normally Hadden jumps around like fleas has bitten his bum but he was quite. He knew the umpire got it wrong but said naught.
I don't think ozzy know how to spell let alone pronounce the word integrity when it comes to sport. Well all I can say is...they LOST THE LEAGUE HA HA HA. Ok I know I'm childish.

Cheers Terau and Koko. I didn't see the game and didn't know they had won until the next morning. At least we can gloat about all the wins we have had in the various sports, despite their cheating ;D

Jeremy Smith your nephew Koko? Man he's good. and tough. A huge plus to the Kiwis, that's for sure. Your family must have done handstands when he scored that brilliant fantastic amazing incredible first try for us in that final. Then he made that amazing ankle tap on Thurston when I reckon they would have scored a try and probably won the game. He was the best player in the whole world cup tournament and that's saying something at such a big event. cheers

Jeremy comes from a very strong league family here in Christchurch with the exception of myself who is a strong union supporter. But my family forgave me ;D Gotta love them. That ankle tap was a family specialty. I could never get it right when we played backyard rugby. His father was renown for the hit and run tackle. The refs could never ping him for taking out key players of the opposition because of his speed. His uncle was a player that would always go straight down the middle and Jona Lomu opposition defense his nick name was the 'bulldozer'. I could go on and go about my brother's antics on the field

I didn't know that Jeremy Smith came from good Christchurch league stock Koko. I played league in Christchurch but have been away from it for years now and it bloody hurts that my sons have to play rugby union down here in Waimate but there's no league down here.
Cheers
