[QUOTE="mj44, post: 130396"] [i]On doing so I always ask them why it is that I never see Aborigines wearing suits in Melbourne and why it is that the only Aborigines that I see on tv are either criminals or playing sport.[/i] Why would that shut us up? Many aboriginals live in poor communities and don't receive decent education, so many turn to crime. Sports tends to be a big part of their culture/community so of course they'll produce good sports people. On top of that, aboriginals represent an extremely small part of the population, as well as the fact that many of them have a lot of euro blood in them and you won't recognise many as being aboriginal. [i]Allblacks defensively were huge. [/i] Not really. The wallabies defence just didn't challenge them in any way. Offensively it was a poor game from both sides. [i]if it werent for the sh*t weather, the ABs would of cleaned up big time[/i] Stop kidding yourself, the scoreline was slightly flattering to the ABs. Neither team was great and both were poor offensively. One try to none is a fair result. [i]they knew in their hearts that they had no show of winning tonight[/i] Willing to talk smack after the match huh. Typical kiwi arrogance (no offense to kiwi's, but many of you are unbelievably arrogant when it comes to rugby). [/QUOTE]
