That fateful Saturday Night

Watched on the streets of Avignon, at an Irishh pub (O'Neills) on a huge screen, surrounded by alot of French, Aussies and drunken happy English (having returned from Marseille after watching the game live). Quotes from the night ...
Australian to myself Quote "At least our boys can go home, your boys can't" Unquote (a reflection of our public critical of the boys and our media)
English to another English Quote "I hope the french win, we can beat the french, we can't bet the All Blacks" Unquote
A French man to me 5 days later Quote "Ohh you are from NZ, I am sooo sorry" Unquote
