I'm glad for New Zealand winning the Rugby World Cup. They were always the most deserving team at this tournament to hoist above their heads the Webb Ellis trophy. They almost choked again facing their bogey team - l'equipe crotte de nez - in the French. The latter did what their Association footballing counterparts enacted in 2006 - ignore the useless coach, take responsibility into their own hands and progress to the final. Whatever, to see them was unnerving to the Kiwis as the Haka is to non-French squads. Yet, they got away with it just and ended the quarter century wait for the Best Rugby Team in the World TM to be champions of the world. I'm also happy for Graham Henry, the Kiwi coach, the culmination of a sterling career.
