It was an unusual Thursday night, with an international rugby test between Australia and New Zealand. We don’t mind losing against almost anyone except Australia (and England too, if I’m honest), so it was always a game we were going to watch. And what a game! It had everything, both good and bad. Sparkling tries, great goal-kicking, people sent off on both sides, horrible injuries, a French referee with a fun accent and phrasing, a close match, and a last minute win by the All Blacks. Their delight in winning was echoed in front of TVs around the country. Including mine.
