Imagine if you'd tell anyone on that day that New Zealand would have to wait till 2011 to win the next World Cup, they would think you've been smoking something exotic.

[@richardmatatahi4563]

We're probably join them

[@harris5743]

Will New Zealand win a fourth on Saturday 27,10,2023?

[@JabuLICORNE]

And, what's more, the 2011 victory was a theft.

Extended highlights?? 😟 Where is the Michael Jones try ??

I was there.

The only rugby game where you’ll find a fox and a chicken on the field

[@milinkerhe]

The Hakka was really not that intimidating back then!

[@stevvvvveperry]

It was more of a pre match ritual back then, rather then a challenge.

Why they have to jump like Boy Scouts tho

David Cark was nice guy！

Indonesia will host of the world rugby u14 championships

Good

[@blairwatene8578]

Great

[@OldSchool-om2zo]

There’s a certain team missing from this competition that beat the ABs 3-1 in a 1986 test series - any guesses?

[@donolonisa5787]

Then make way for South Africa 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@whiteafrican5895]

All blacks cannot claim this as a win as south Africans did not play thus SA 4 cups NZ 2😅

[@user-xq1oq9bf6c]

Get over yourself, had your country been a better place for all to live then you could use that as an argument..

[@Rotowhaka]

Was not the All Blacks in SA in 1986, it was the cavaliers, and don’t forget the All Blacks had a few players, that did not go on that Rebel tour, plus a completely different coaching and management team, that was way ahead of the Cavaliers Coaching and Management team.

[@user-eq9jv5uf7d]

@@whiteafrican5895 Thats like claiming Evander Holyfield was never world champ because Mike Tyson was in jail at the time..not Evander's fault Mike couldnt behave himself.

Road of the match

[@noodles169]

The most dominant international rugbyl team of all time. The all blacks were playing professional rugby, while the rest were playing amature. Australia caught up 4years later

[@JabuLICORNE]

The All Blacks did not win the World Cup for 24 years and did not deserve to win it in 2011.

@@JabuLICORNE let me guess your a springboks fan?

[@JabuLICORNE]

@@David-li2qj I'm french and I can't forget that All Blacks stole the victory in 2011 (with Craig Joubert help). Spingboks stole the victory in 1995.

[@martinvanrensburg4441]

Die WC kon SA sin gewees het . SA was Baie beter as die AB .ons span sou AB gemors het .

[@ryano136]

Not a true WC, the Boks were not there, before anyone rants and raves even the mighty AB's said so

[@richardscanlan3419]

You include the 1991 tourney as well?

[@keithmoon8838]

Boks wouldn't have made the semifinals. I'll give you this though, South Africa certainly would have won the World Cup for killing innocent blacks. Racist regimes aren't welcome.

[@thekububeach]

It’s not anyone’s fault. Criminal country should not be invited to anything. And it wouldn’t matter anyway. Springboks would not win it.

[@davidstabler592]

It was the South Africans fault. Before anyone rants and raves, I lived in SA in that period. I still have documents detailing what race I was.... can you believe a regime based in that, in our lifetime? So... it was a true WC, between all reasonable Rugby playing nations.

[@richardmatatahi4563]

It was the 1st RWC it had to start somewhere regardless if South Africa were there or not.
