What's a worldcup?

 

[barossi73]

its a knockout cricket tournament,pretty big deal in this neck of the woods,esp 4 australia!traditionally the aussies are very strong.nz just beat south africa and made the final for the 1st time ever.australia plays india in the other semi final for the other final spot tomorrow so a lot of aussies will be very nervous!(although being aussies they wont admit it)
I realise its a little off topic,but couldn't resist a little dig at the aussies!
always ultra competitive rivalry between aus/nz in any sport,lots of banter.usually they spank us at cricket,and we always spank them at rugby!
im sure you have similarly intense sporting rivalries with your neighbours?gridiron?baseball?hockey?whats the one team you hate to lose to?

I suppose it is like a World Series but the difference being that you play against other countries from the rest of the world ;-)

Still recovering from the S.A.-NZ game! AU-NZ final would be awesome but would loose 75% of the world viewing audience.
My new lithium ion battery works great (just something bike related).

Well done aussies,itl be all the more sweet when we win the final now!
On a bike note,great to see a glowing gg ec300 review in the latest Australian motorcycle news(could have had a few more pics though!)also in there 20yrs of vr46 incl comments from former teammates and ex champions plus a little detail on some of the bikes vr won titles on,and a great feature on the mv agusta f3 supersport.prob the best edition yet in this turkeys opinion

 

[gg3]

ummm...Aussie looked pretty convincing.Should be great final.
Kiwirider magazine gave it a great review as well.They had 2 things they didn't like- seat foam a bit thin at the back & could be a bit lighter.

Don't get greedy now, we let you win the rugby, it'd look a bit suss if we threw the cricket as well

@ $3.00 v $1.50 for a Kiwi win never say never.

I feel a bit guilty now, all went downhill quickly when McCullum went early.

 

[barossi73]

trust me,we feel worse.How McCullum started was always goin to set the tone,what might have been if hed slapped a few boundaries off starc and co. in the first few overs?Have to say congrats,very disciplined bowling effort.Dissapointing after setting the tournament alight for us,but "that's cricket"
Was expecting to cop a lot more flak from you guys...Lets just move on shall we?haha...enjoy it well you can guys,the rugby is next!
Back to the important stuff,have a set of chain rollers and a topend job to do!

As if we'd rub it in, that'd be un-Australian

I've already heard that given the cricket result we're going to let you have the Rugby .
