[QUOTE="kbourke88, post: 119677"] I dont think I can win this debate about ABs being favourites in every world cup. But I do feel that, largely due to me, the argument about ABs being chokers drifted to them being favourites. So i think maybe I would like to move away from the favourites debate, I think we've gone as far as we can with that one, and move towards what you think about the ABs choker tag. I would say that maybe 91 wasnt a choke, and Australia just won an epic clash. I would say that maybe even 95 final wasnt a choke, and there are always those poisoning rumours. 99 semi was without a doubt a choke. And having actually been there at the game in 03, and looking at the feeling about the game beforehand, 2003 was also a choke. That being said, I think that choke doesnt mean upset, and i reckon that in 91,95,99 and 03 the games that the ABs lost were all the upsets of the tournament. Do any of you guys think we should start a new thread for that? Are any of you interested in having that debate (i know your up for it Ripper!!) [/QUOTE]
