First match in the Tri-Nations and Bledisloe Cup ended in a resounding win for the All Blacks – 32 All Blacks, 12 Wallabies. So much for the Channel Seven advertising, suggesting that the All Blacks are just fruit (Kiwis) that can be squashed. And so much for the Channel Seven advertisement portraying the All Blacks performing their haka with handbags on shoulders. The Wallabies were bagged tonight.

That ad made the front page of the sports section here in Hong Kong. My first thought was that “the all blacks will hate it” and my second thought was “the wallabies will end up hating it even more.”
