The All Blacks is the name given to the New Zealand national rugby union team.... by New Zealanders, not Aussies.

OK< Huff, just stumbled on this, and had hoped you wouldn't spill the beans, heck, that and the yachting in the one night, the suicide rate in this country has likely tripled.
If we don't win the race tonight we may as well build boats that sink like you fellas.
DP, you'll keep, believe me, LOL.

Any win is a good win! Take the credit where it is due...
Aussie & UnZud have only met twice in the world cup, Aussie are 2-0.
Go the All Blacks!
