    Bronze medal play off time. I love the Argie national anthem - it's all a bit mental!

    Decent game last night. Can't wait for the final. I think it will be a great game. I want NZ to win. McCaw retiring after final and I can't think of a more fitting way for him to bow out than by lifting the trophy. Best player of all time in my opinion. Total machine

    Bizarre timing for the final.

    Is it because X Factor is on
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, vodka in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming, "WOO HOO what a ride!"

    I think his team mate Carter deserves that accolade.

    Half time. New Zealand looking fairly comfortable at the moment. They've had the bulk of the pressure and Australia have rarely threatened the All Blacks line.

    What a drop goal by Carter. Quite a swansong if they hold on to win.

    Very good final to watch! All Blacks worthy winners

    You'd think the All Blacks coach could crack a smile. He looks like he'd rather be anywhere else in the world right now.

    Anyway good final and worthy winners, the best team in the tournament won it.

    A fitting end to a wonderful tournament. I've thoroughly enjoyed the last few weeks although I'm still mystified over some of the rules, but there again even the most ardent of rugby fans find the same.

    ABs outstanding. Fitting end to a great tournament.
    If there's been a better more dominant sporting team in my lifetime I can't think of it.

    The consummate professionals if ever there was and right down to the last detail. Even their boots are "all black," - no hideous yellows or pinks for these guys!

    I do agree that the All Blacks are immense but in my opinion the Barca team a few years ago that won the champions League, la liga, copa del rey and I think the super cup pip them as the best team ever although I do concede that the All Blacks have longevity but then again not as much competition as Barca.

    Good game eh ?......fitting end for 6 AB's.....Carter was not going to be on the losing side tonight, what a Kicker of the ball that guy is....and he's signed for Racing in France next season...£100k a year....paltry when you think of equivalent players in the soccer world.
    Have to say what a try from Nonu......great end to a great tournament.

    One young rugby fan left Twickenham with the ultimate souvenir after Sonny Bill Williams handed him his winner's medal.

    i wonder if in years to come sonny bill might regret doing it



    to answer my own question...no he won't regret it because he's been given another one :)
