Not ONE but TWO HAKAs tonight...


...... SO IT'S GET BEHIND THE SOFA BIG TIME! ;-) ;-) ;-) :-D :-D :-D :-D

New Zealand are already through to the Quarter finals, so the outcome of this game will not affect them.

If Tonga manages to finish 3rd.... Although they will not qualify for the Quarter Finals, THEY WILL QUALIFY FOR THE NEXT RUGBY WORLD CUP!

Sorry we wear either white or black skirts with matching knickers.

Shaun will have to use his own knickers, and if he hasn't got any he's not a very patriotic Welsh man is he?
