[QUOTE="Zed, post: 598834, member: 38503"] I don't buy the "NZ were ill" just like I don't buy the 1995 food poisoning bull*****. They're fit professional athletes, not superheros, if you have food poisoning you can barely move let alone run out against South Africa, play a full game, plus extra time and only just lose... NZ lost to England because they were tired after a long season, perhaps lacking in motivation/already in holiday mode and that coincided with a fit and motivated England with nothing to lose. In the big scheme of things it doesn't really mean much, 2 months later England reverted to type and their turgid 10 man rugby, scraping wins against teams they should pump. [/QUOTE]
