[QUOTE="Vieux Talonneur, post: 1022701, member: 73144"] A couple of games mentioned here that I went to with contrasting memories. RWC semi in 91 - result was all and Hastings was kind enough to miss that kick right in front of me. And then Croke Park, less said about that the better. Heresy probably, but in the 19 semi vs NZ we were very very good from the Haka formation onwards but that really wasn’t a vintage NZ team. While still an excellent performance, with hindsight it doesn’t feel quite like the era defining win it did at the time. I think we celebrated more beating the aura more than anything else. Maybe we’ve had unrealistic expectations ever since. [/QUOTE]
