To me this is the best All Blacks game of the professional era, an absolute Masterclass and a thorough exorcising of the ghosts of 2007 which still haunted those players who were there, not least of all Carter and McCaw. The level of skill and execution on display by the ABs and the frenetic pace they demanded the match be played at is peerless. It's also the best World Cup coverage and atmosphere that I've experienced since the inaugural tournament here in NZ in 1987. Hats off to the hosts, amazing tournament on and off the field.
@@horacehhelmsley9375 I've been trying to find a full match recording for years, nothing has turned up. I'm convinced the French govt have had their hand in it.
@@JUNO_EDM calm down lil bro. I don't think you understand dominance. The All blacks didn't just win 2 world cups they won (significantly) between them. Best winning percentage across all sports teams In the world. That's including Brazil in football, the best teams of the NFL and NBA. These aren't stats you can argue with😅
I've been to three RWC macthes in my life: Wales v Tonga and ABs v Aregntina in NZ in 1987 when I was just a kid; and this one - RWC'15 QF in Cardiff. This performance was absolutely mesmerising, they owned that stadium - possibly the most complete ABs match ever.
+Kazae Kapri in another game id be inclined to agree, but he 100% deserved that run after that game and it very, very nearly payed off in which case it would have a contender for savea playing lomu as best of the match. Nonu - the kiwi predator
Georgia, Namibia & Tonga were closer games than this! Well done All Blacks, I knew you guys were foxing in the pool stages but I didn't expect such a complete performance instantly! Wouldn't be surprised if this team went all the way. From a nervous Wallaby fan.
Gotta beat the Scots and Irish/Argies first before we start thinking about the final - but honestly I have been waiting forever for an Aus NZ final. Next week against the Saffas for you guys will be an awesome game to watch as well!
EscoBeatZzZ Don't you dare put the favourite tags with us ;) we don't want it lol. Our defence has been awesome but our attack lacking, something the Blacks were sublime with today
The greatest of all time. The backs: Smith > Carter > Nonu > Smith > Savea > Milner Skudder > Smith was the best of all time, with SBW, Barrett and Perenara to come on as subs. Unstoppable.
Go The mighty allblacks one of the best sports team on this planet go hard boys bring the cup back home once again very proud of a record breaking team yous surely one of a kind team
france will be holding the best opening match in the rwc2023, nz vs france, our pools have been set to meet eirther ireland or southafrica in the QF, Hopefully we see nz vs rsa, and ireland vs france QF,
My all time All Blacks team. 1. Tony Woodcock 2. Dane Coles 3. Carl Hayman 4. Colin Meads 5. Ian Jones 6. Micheal Jones 7. Richie McCaw 8. Zinzan Brooke 9. Aaron Smith 10. Daniel Carter 11. Jonah Lomu 12. Ma'a Nonu 13. Frank Bunce 14. Julian Savea 15. Christian Cullen
Beer Grills Yes, you're quite right. That was the hardest decision I made. But they were all hard decisions because most of these guys are only marginally better than the 2nd best. Like with Dane Coles, you could go with Sean Fitzpatrick or even Kevin Mealamu. With Zinzan Brooke you could have gone with Kieran Read or with Buck Shelford. I suppose it depends on what kind of team you want, I wanted a skillful team that would dominate with flare.
Beer Grills I also cheated and put a couple of them out of position like M. Jones and Savea, but really you'd be silly to leave those two out, and their new position is literally the same as their actual position.
+Anton Nzl Carl Hayman #1 forever. Also I'm a big fan of Olo Brown, I'd be tempted to put him in there ahead of Woodcock. Olo was a hard man. Probably one of our best ever scrummages. Although its hard to compare against eras I think hes hard to ignore. Him an Hayman would be a match in heaven. Also i'd probably be keen to put Brad Thorn there instead of Ian Jones. Thorn was THE ONE. You couldnt look Thorn in the eye without.. Well.. Y'know.. Him just being there is enough to make the opponent think twice about playing you. I'd go for Tana Umaga ahead of Nonu as well. I know he was a center but im sure you could break the rules to squeeze him in there? ;) Also, last one, out of respect I'd add Jerry Collins. RIP
+Jordan Smith You're right Jordan. The players you mentioned bring in more size and physicality, theyd still own just in a different way. I was going for more of the skillful forwards, and bigger backs.
Grosse branlée ! Nous sommes heureux et fier depuis, de retrouver notre French Flair et de gagner en 2022, ce Grand Chelem. Mais il faut reconnaître que nous sommes encore à des années lumières de la NZ Dream Team de 2015. Big rout! We are happy and proud since, to find our French Flair and to win in 2022, this Grand Slam. But we must recognize that we are still light years away from the 2015 NZ Dream Team.
looks like they have gave everything in their clash against ireland, hope to see irish side in the same bad shape tomorrow! Great opportunity for a young Pumas team. waiting to see a SH semifinals.
i do not, actually they have played some good rugby so far, but i´m argentinian and of course i want to see pumas in SF. about others SH teams i believe have more chances than NH. wouldn't you like to see a mini RC in the semifinals?
@@shackletonben4500 haha cheers, but that's not even the half of it! I was at the Lions tour of Australia in 2013. I've worked in 4 continents. Antarctica is the only continent that I've not visited.
Let's not get ahead of ourselves, The Boks and the Wallabies are still capable of pulling off a win. As a die hard Kiwi history has shown us that anything is possible. Rugby has shown us that the game is a great leveller and nothing is a sure bet. I am thankful that the boys have finally put on a performance that most of us here have become accustomed but until the final whistle on the final day.....
+Gman W True, when planets align, some may beat AB, they aren't gods, however going on form, they are the most dominate international playing sports team in the world, for a sport that ranks third as most watched sport in world, all from 5 million ppl,will be a long long long time before any other team, rugby or not, beats those stats.
Gman W It will, but believe me, plenty more where they come from, ppl act like AB haven't been dominant for all their history, AB is so much more than 4 or 5 players from las 10 years, and that attitude is woven into the AB shirt, history and culture.
It's 2023, All Blacks VS Springboks are in the final. Coming back to watch this phenomenal performance from my All Blacks. Let's make it our 4th World Cup win boys, it's going to be a tough one.
Well done All Blacks. Very proud of that performance. Good to have The Bus back. 1:40 is my favourite try of the tournament so far. Get out the way! The Bus is coming through.
Hi, I'm French and I have to say this was a disaster for us...I also have to say : when All-Blacks play like that from 1st second to the end : they are unstoppable. I sincerely hope they will win this one : because else it will be a disaster : for us, and for them :-)
+Dee Brownboi And whats even worse is that he is with possibly the worst commentator in the history of sport in Justain Marshall. I like TJ and also SUMO is pretty awesome as well (assuming your from NZ)
Me and my Kiwi buddies watching here in South Korea (not a big rugby fan country) and we made a ruckus every time we scored try hahahaa we managed to attract about 5 my Korean colleagues watching this and they instantly became AB fan boys XD The 3rd BLACKS ! KAPA O PANGO ! Nonu Savea and Carter worth billionsss
