    Chuck Norris has the greatest Poker-Face of all time. He won the 1983 World Series of Poker, despite holding only a Joker, a Get out of Jail Free Monopoly card, a 2 of clubs, 7 of spades and a green #4 card from the game Uno.

    Wests Scarborough 1st Grade juggernaut has played finals rugby each and every year since its inception and continues this remarkable feat yet again this season and unbelievably it's still rolling on and as an added little circle jerk for the masses Wests actually hold the record for the current longest unbroken finals record.

    Yes. But the one who wasn't on the boat played the biggest part. $200 mill.

    Don't wanna get all righteous but people are dying because they can't afford the medical treatment and some guy spends 200 mill on a boat race,something's gone wrong somewhere along the way

    I guess it's because most people know the Kiwi's seldom win anything unless of course they are playing amongst themselves.

    You seem to be very vocal about how unimportant this event is Westie, is sport only important when New Zealand win?

    You may gloat about an Aussie victory under the USA flag but at the helm of the USA challenge was Russell Coutts who was giving direction to those sheep like people called Aussies who at the moment can't seem to win anything under there own steam
    The best economy in the world but can't afford your own challenge looser rugby and cricket teams but hang on you Aussies things will turn around very quickly for you as we now have misses Abbott running the country another expat kiwi who has grown up in a tough little valley called Wainuiomata will only have to bring half the fight and spirit with her to change your loosing ways
