I don't want to appear to be wedge-driving, but just as many people form their opinions of muslims from the Ayatollahs, we formed ours of New Zealanders from Mailman!
BTW, can someone remind me the last time England won a tournament of any kind in poofball?
Mailman
Actually,
there was the Tournoi de France in 1997 in which they bested France, Brazil, and Italy. Not that it was anything like as prestigious as Scotland's winning of the Kirin Cup last year when both Japan and Bulgaria were swept aside!!

The Tournoi de France (French for "Tournament of France") was a friendly international football tournament held in Paris
Friendly games?
hardly the cutting competition you see in every game of rugger is it? Maybe I should have worded my question a bit clearer...when was the last time eng-gaaa-land won a tournament of note (discounting those p1ss meaningless "friendlies")?

Or is this it since the 1960's?
Mailman
Face it Mailman. Rugger is a minority sport played, in the main, by people without the talent to play real sports like football. Even the shape of the ball is crooked, like the ears and noses of the forwards. And aside from 1 RWC win since its inception, just what have the Kiwis ever won? The Tri-Nations?? FFS, a competition where you can't come worse than third is hardly a competition at all. Do they do anything else energetic down there that does not involve KY Jelly and sheep, or Boxing Gloves and a spouse?
