Quarterfinal loss a 'blow to Kiwi tribe'
The All Blacks' ignominious defeat by the French has plunged New Zealand into mourning because our national psyche has been wounded, mental health experts say. ahah :/

I can't stand the media hype anywhere... If a movie is pimped for 6 months before it's released, the chances are I won't go see it. If a game is given a frigging radio countdown for 3 months, then no i probably won't watch it.
I was actually more gutted when we got knocked out of the 20/20 cricket than I am about this one. |

yeah - i doubt that there will be a depression/recession, the media hype will blow over & even die hard fanatics will reside in the fact that its just a game.
Also leaving finally will hopefully be the unrealistic expectation from the general public that the Allblacks are unbeatable & beyond the rest of the world. This sobering dose of 'professionalism' rugby reality is long overdue - it will probably make the Abs play better too! (i do feel bad for the Abs thou - Rugby actually IS their life) |

Yeah, nice attempt at a troll (sarcasm intended) Hannibal, lucky most people are aware you're the biggest idiot in this forum though so it'll go unnoticed / expected

BadNova: Don't read too much into that, honestly. Chances are the reporter lead him into that answer, hoping to get some sensationalism going on.

I must confess, I'm not "ohgodpleaseletthepainstop" gutted like I was in 1999 and 2003. I'm disappointed, but hell... nothing in my day-to-day life has changed.
It is easier living in Adelaide, a town not known for its interest in rugby union. |

Breaking News. People are upset.
They cant help that they are upset. Do you in some way feel superior because you are not upset by something that you never cared about to begin with ?.

I'm more poking fun at the over the top news than anything. I think the sensationalist reporting is what should spark an "Inquiry" not a rugby loss..

Untouchable, no it's not that some people are upset about it that irks me... Like I say, i was gutted when we didn't make the finals in the 20/20, but I don't think our national newspapers should make out like we all honestly believe that the sun won't come up if we don't bring home the cup.

There's no good way to lose. Factor X10 worse if we'd lost to SA in the final again.
After watching the NRL. Rugby is so painfully stop-start. |

Oliver's been on a NZ military history binge lately, and had been reading on the topic and visiting WW1 battlefields while in France. I believe he was quoted as saying something like "blah blah blah the desolation and emptiness of No Man's Land... that's what it feels like to us here in the dressing room".
A quick rewriting for the McMedia: "LOSING THIS GAME OF RUGBY IS WORSE THAN FIGHTING AND DYING IN A WORLD WAR, NO HONESTLY IT IS, AND YOU CAN QUOTE ME ON THAT" |

Here I was thinking this was a thread on my personal prediction we were going to get into a financial depression shortly... waste of fucking time.
waa waa waa, news flash, shortage of underwear, seems like people have gone back to pissing their pants and crying like babies. |

ive never understood the whole "we lost" "we could have played better" what we could have done" shit when it comes from people who arent actually on the team. whats this we white man? mr joe know it all on the street has diddly fuck to do with the all blacks except buying a tacky flag to put on his car. maybe people in NZ should stop trying to live viacriously through people they percieve as heroes or whatever. sure i was dissapointed about it but some peoples reactions, and especially the whole media BS, is just plain sad.
