Dublin footballers, limerick hurlers, mayo footballers,that club football team from 4 in a row finals (either carlow or roscommon),nz rugby for sure,they had the overall team to beat any and all others and choked badly.It was easy to see france winning when they levelled it.

As George Gregan said to the All Blacks after the 2003 semi final when the aussies beat them " 4 more years boys , 4 more years"
thats why I love aussies in sport
their gaciousness and unbound magnanimousity never ceases to amaze me !

Good to see that those cheating spear tacklers with their ridiculous dance (shouldn't be allowed) before the game are out again. Also happy with Australia's defeat as they are the only team I hate more than England.

Greg Norman - Honourable mention surely.

But the award must go to New Zealand, whatever about the Dubs or Mayo, New Zealand are an outstanding team.

English Football team, all they ever have to do is turn up, show a bit of that old Dunkirk spirit, kiss the 3 Lions and the World Cup/Euro Championship is theirs, yet only one world cup in 80 years.........
