best thing about this final is O'Keefe won't be any where, poor ref, get rid of him!!!!

[@rohankerr8891]

I’m a Wallaby supporter but definitely supporting you guys to win this for our region. I m excited for NZ and can’t wait to watch the game. Play like you did against Ireland with passion and you will win. We are supporting you back here in OZ.

[@madyak222]

Thanks for the support, (as a Kiwi living in Aus), came out here when Eels and Farr Johns were beating the AB's on a regular basis, no doubt the Wallies will improve to that level again in the future. The Boks are probably slight faves going in which is good for the AB's to have a little pressure on them to perform at the highest level, for the full 80, should be a Hell of a game. Southern Hemisphere rugby wins no matter what. Much respect to all teams and countries. kia Kaha.

Sir Richie McCaw, And Keiran Reid, Two True Legends Of All Blacks And Crusaders Rugby! It's Awesome to see you both back together again. As a supporter The Mighty Crusaders, I have a question for you both, "Have you ever thought about playing for the Crusaders again?" Please Don't Say that you are to old, unfit , it looks like the both of you are capable of playing Super Rugby for another 5-10 years. "Who are you picking to win the final?" My prediction is the All Blacks will win 35-20, the same score that AB's beat South Africa at Bloemfontein in 2022!

Hallo Richie n Keeran. Cheers . U guys have been there n done some wonderful work as ABs . This RWC23 Shud b very special for u two as much as the Team . Your guidance wud mean alot t specially on the disciplin n mental part of it . . Experience is paramount n u guys 8 undoubtedly have it . Best of Luck to ABs . God bless our Team . ABs need to look back 2015 RWC semis .n read into the Aggressive attack of Boks n there r few players still in the squad . That means watch out yr discipline ABs n you must b hugely aggressive fm kickoff n exert extreme pressure BUT not forgetting there's still 75 mts of unforgiving task .

Reado and I were having a couple of cheeky pints in Paris, about 2months ish before the cup started. And I can honestly say he called it. He said ‘Im not being biased because I would call it if it weren’t up to the level, but I think what I see in the guys will shock everyone. Yeah, they’ve had some shaky moments in the past couple of years, but I feel like they will go all the way, and I think they will win it’ - You called it brother, hell, if they win…Im gonna call you say ‘IF WE WERE BETTING MEN!!!!’ Hahahahaha

Do kiwi's get stoked at some of our retired springboks interviews? Cause I dig seeing your lads in them. Checking out team sheets and just getting nervous as hell at the fire power being brought and then catching the retired beasts a few years later in shows is awesome. Andrew Mehrtens has been a recent revelation on the podcast cct. Absolutely hated seeing that guy on the team sheet.
