The Perfect Season (2013) 

Perfect

Well said...so do I!

Yep, fully agree with you, no weaknesses in that team, from 1 to 15 all were pretty much the best in the world at their positions too

🏉🤠🍻🤠👍

@@marksta5915 we really took that for granted. Now we’re getting spanked by France and Ireland etc.

@@marksta5915 ....& The bench wholly f..!!

@@locominyana8916 yep it was a great well coached to their potential team, sadly unlike the inconsistent shambles we've seen the last 3 seasons in particular

They have always been number 1 and always will be.

@@Sokol17029 : Er, they were not number one for 80 years before South Africa was banned from international rugby. In fact, South Africa had beaten every team in the world more times than they'd lost, including the AB's. The AB's had not even won a test series in South Africa before SA were banned. Since South Africa came back and have been badly affected by affirmative action appointments, the AB's have done well against SA....but SA still have a better win percentage at winning RWC's.....three wins in seven RWC's compared to ABs three wins in nine tournaments.

@@shibuya3185 Ok both teams are number one and always will be.

@@shibuya3185 Many teams tried to win in SA, first problem was they were smart, played most teams at altitude, another problem was the quality of the reffing, If you watch the old games, my word, I think a few Rand was given to certain referees. In saying that, The All Black VS South Africa mindset is one of the best in the world, the games are always battles to the final whistle and always the team that wins deserves it. The world ranking system is a farce, lets face it. At this time SA are number 1 and deserve to be as RWC's. Overall however, the All Blacks hold a winning margin over every team they have ever played, Including SA. Don't use politics to say that it has affected the game to such a point that you have to mention it, Up until the end of Apartheid the margin was 21 wins to SA and 17 wins to NZ, so a lot closer than you suggest. Heyneke Meyer did a great job from 2012 to 2015 and almost got them the win in the world cup, that semi was epic, the same team previously struggled, with some big losses, Same with the All Blacks now, Foster is destroying their game. RWC's are great, 3 each, yet only the All Blacks have won back to back. Since the first match in 1921 between them there have been 101 games. 60 to NZ and 37 to SA with 4 draws. And to be honest that wont change that much as both teams are always going to bring their best. As a kiwi I have more respect for SA rugby than any other country, if we lose to them it's worth the pain, because the game is always amazing.

​@@Nineteenseventy2 : Who cares who won "back to back"? The AB's have played twice at home compared to the Boks once and have played in two more tournaments. They consistently choke when playing the RWC away....with a dismal 14% success record. Disrespecting SA referees by claiming they cheat is typical Kiwi loser talk. What is wrong with you lot? Small man syndrome again? Of course politics has played a major role in the disappointing Bok performances since the end of apartheid. Before this time (over 80 years) they had a better win/lose ratio than every other team. The AB's have done really well whilst SA has been affected by affirmative action and teams not selected on merit, but with some excellent black talent coming through in SA, they are coming back to their former glory. They are not there yet but still have a better win rate at winning RWC's than the AB's. Three out of seven compared to three out of nine for the AB's. The Boks will continue to suffer in the less important games because the weak rand means that they never can field their strongest team but with all the black talent coming through, they are improving. The AB's had better start poaching players from the PI's again.

Agreed, Cruden & the oft maligned Liam Messam. Carter & Kaino always get the props, but weren't really needed this year.

Agreed. Him and Sonny Bill were the greatest combination for the Chiefs ONLY lol

Beauden also stepped up against the South African sides this year, and coming off the bench against Ireland in the last game.

Yeah agreed , when carter was out the team didn’t miss a beat

That's absolutely true. All blacks really blessed with this legends. Carter injured then a reliable 10 comes Cruden which backed by the young Beauden who super lighting fast. McCaw injured and young Sam Cane comes in to cover backed by Matthew Todd. Plenty lengends for the all blacks. Credits to Cruden and also Cane whom highly criticized by fans but I believe he lost his super form ever since injury happened which is sad.

I feel like they need to bring Richie back as a team culture advisor

@@ghostinahotel and sake the current coach.

@@novak7970 couldn't agree more

@@danievanzyl2613 keep telling yourself that mate

@@danievanzyl2613 you're a cheat!! Lol. You're missus said so

I'm from korea too

And Piatau had the whites straightest teeth lol

The best

Ben Smith what a player!

You guys haven't done too well against us since then aye

@@Friends-jl3lp does it still hurt after getting thrashed in the last worldcup 😄

@@sanurox1 does it still hurt getting annihilated by the irish and French during the autumn internationals. Worst AB run in over 10 yrs. As your media stated after the game nobody will know who the AB's are anymore 😏

@@Friends-jl3lp lol annihilate? 44-16 is annihilation 😂 Thought the Irish had a better grasp on the English language 😂 plus big ego coming from a team who only can win in their own backyard 😂 Also the French has always been a better team than Ireland when it comes to defeating the All blacks but they never have a big ego like the Irish 😛

@@sanurox1 beat you in Chicago Uso

never say never... you lost a lot recently

@@Commantaireful its never lost we just run out of time

@Go on have some i'm french, by the losing experience we have i just find disturbing the arrogance nz ppl have even in the losing streak

@@Commantaireful A Frenchman accusing other nationalities of being arrogant. You can't make this sh!t up

Joy

I hate losing too bro but that's when we strive to be better and everyone else knows that.

Best test match I've ever seen.

@@danievanzyl2613 you mean kiwis ? Lol gtfoh

@@danievanzyl2613 What are south sea islanders?

Danie But the All Black players with Polynesian heritage are New Zealanders🇳🇿 tho when it’s comes to nationally wise, Because nearly all of them was born in New Zealand 🇳🇿 so your reply is pointless, Plus the current Wallabies got more Islanders then the current All Blacks.

Agreed. Think because the coaches wanted him as a super sub but he wanted a full time gig so instead he left for the big bucks at the time. I could be wrong.

He fucked his career up

I agree. It’s bittersweet I guess because the rate the Blues have been going these past couple of years, he’d be wasted talent.

Trust me, he was a very special talent and it hurt to see him go so soon, before his prime as well. Esp after Nonu and Smith retired there still is a hole to fill in the midfield

Me too

Nice xv...mine would be: 1.Woodcock 2. Fitzy 3. Olo 4. Meads 5. Retallick 6. M Jones 7. Richie 8. Zinzan 9. Marshall 10. DC 11. Jonah 12. Nonu 13. Bunce 14. Savea 15. Cullen Replacements: Franks, Meealamu, Kaino, Ardie, A Smith, Beauden, Umaga, B Smith

Spot on with your picks bro

Ahh England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 did in 2016 to be honest with you.

@@baileygilbert4766 The Mighty All Blacks bro💪

The 2013 All Blacks team & The 2016 England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 team are the only international Rugby Union teams that go undefeated/100% in the professional era(1995-present), Who will be the third team to go undefeated in their respective year??? My guess will be another All Black team in the future, And go the All Blacks👊🏽✌🏽😎!!!.

ABs did this with running rugby and not boring

Hearty

and i bet the Abs broke ur heart again in the QF match against ireland 😂

NSW

Only Ardie and Aaron dominant their positions. We used to have 5, 6 or 7 positions where the ABs dominated internationally. Can't see that changing for a few years yet mate.

@@gpan3762 we will be lucky if it ever changes,sadly.

@@richardscanlan3167 haha come on boys, you two are sounding like the all blacks haven't had a bad run before, this isn't the warriors 😂

@@gpan3762 Smith is class but Dupont is clearly the best 9 in the world now. Aaron is in the twilight of his years

It's an energy drink called Lipovitan D. The manufacturer sponsors the Japanese national team.

Ringland. App

21. Tj tho always comes off explosive after watching Aaron for 60min

Havili won't be 12 alb will be, with Goodhue. And Jacobsen will be 6 I think but good side otherwise
