Well, this is part 3 of my year in review which is about as I did a blog about the 4th anniversary of my 1st blog dubbed as Rules Of The Game Of Thrones (Which I named my blog which is a portmanteau of Rules of the Game (Which is my all time favorite book but I always laugh about the fouls (And the high tackles which is kinda funny because I've got the new Rugby Challenge 3 game) which is about Aunty Tania arriving in New Zealand for Pops QSM award so we went to stellar for lunch back in 2012 & well, my 1st blog was a bit emotionless but it was worth every penny, imagine that not only because it is 1 month ago till my birthday as well as the All Blacks 3 match test series against Wales (Me and Poppa are going to the 2nd test in Wellington for this) and Euro 2016 (Which is held in France under tight security mode but who's gonna win just like Leicester City did in the English Premier League (It was 5000 to 1 odds to win the league, not 500 to 1) but it is only 90 days till the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, I Can't wait. And on Wednesday, I cooked macaroni cheese for lunch with Victoria (Who is heading off overseas for 95 days) then Pops took me there to Breakers café and bar for dinner & I had one of Jansen's favorite food is butter chicken as well as having a butter scotch cheese cake for dessert as well as they had a quiz night there so I went home during half-time (And yeah I was drinking too much water there) then 1 day later, me and Poppa went to the splash centre as well as having noodles for lunch and played last card and then yesterday, Victoria took me to Stellar for dinner because I had a foul play pizza for the 1st time in 3 years and 11 months as well as having a chocolate cheese cake for dessert (I thought I was not going to have dessert since I've had a gelato that morning) as well as breaking the record for most railway crossings found at #64 (Well we avoided school zones though) before watching the rugby between the Crusaders and the Reds (Well the Crusaders did win, topping the New Zealand & Australasian conference and if the Chiefs lose, the Crusaders would remain top spot), effectively ending a great Friday it was.
And it was during May that Leon & Hanne paid a visit to 15A Kells Avenue for lunch so we had to prepare the food because we had chicken casserole for lunch but I told Leon that Leicester City had won the English Premier League (Pieter Schmeichel's son, Kasper, plays for the club as well as Jamie Vardy) as well as Manchester United (Led by England captain Wayne Rooney who plays for the club along with German Captain Bastian Schweinsteiger, France's Anthony Martial, Spain's David de Gea & Belgium's Marouane Fellaini) winning the FA Cup because Crystal Palace were about to win but they ended up losing but Pops told both Leon & Hanne a great joke about Uncle Wal being several stone had to look like a Buddha because he was getting hot during his trip to see the Terracotta warriors in China because his daughter Narlea or Nufemmia, worked for HSBC, LOL! (OMG) and also Uncle Wal's house needs cleaning because it is just plain messy because it was way back 10 years ago during our Auckland trip (I have been to the Sky Tower once before).
And so it was a perfect lunch to deal with then we had fruit salad with French vanilla ice-cream and coconut milk and it was nice then I had a mochaccino for a hot drink.
And I already told Leon and Hanne I think that 10 years ago we were discussing about Denmark (Led by Lars Olsen and featuring great players such as Schmeichel and Brian Laudrup) winning Euro 92 after originally failed to qualify by losing to Yugoslavia before they were expelled and the Danish think that they said ''Yay! We are in the Euro 92 tournament because they were withdrawn due to the war in Yugoslavia not only because we could win this tournament'' so I am still looking forward to Euro 2016 in France (Led by goalkeeper Hugo Lloris and featuring key players such as Atletico Madrid's Antoine Griezmann who is the star player along with Paul Pogba of Juventus and Anthony Martial of Manchester United) but the best club in the world FC Barcelona (Who has got the best players or should I say featuring the South American trio including best player in the world from Argentina Lionel Messi, Brazil's Neymar and Uruguay's Luis Suarez) have been eliminated in the UEFA Champions League so it is down to their rivals Atletico & Real Madrid (Coached by Argentina's Diego Simeone and France's Zinedine Zidane respectively) contesting the final.
And of course that the Danish Terminator of Hanne told me that the Malaysian Princess of Sophia Ong is coming on the 13th of July not the 12th of July because we are just friends you know but it has been 9 long years since I last saw her (It was 2007 (The same year that the last time the All Blacks lost a Rugby World Cup game because it was against hosts France in the Quarterfinal) during our picnic but the last time I had a chat to her was in 2008 (The same year that Beijing hosted the Olympics during emit remmus (Summer time backwards) when I was speaking to her on the phone because she left UCOL here but didn't go to Waikato university because I have got one of her paintings in my flat) & how did Sophie call me a Jedi warrior when I sent her an email because I really don't know that she had seen the new Star Wars movie called Star Wars: The Force Awakens (Well I used to be a Star Wars fan back in the day during the 2000's but before I 1st saw that movie, I really don't know who is Rey (The protagonist of the new Star Wars sequel trilogy along with Luke (The original trilogy protagonist) & Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader (The prequel trilogy protagonist and original trilogy antagonist), Finn (FN-2187), Poe Dameron, BB-8 and the evil Kylo Ren (Claiming to be the son of Leia Organa and Han Solo) as well as I knew a lot of characters such as Han Solo (Captain of the Millennium Falcon who got killed by Kylo Ren during the movie), Chewbacca (The Wookiee), C-3PO (See Threepio), R2-D2 (Artoo Detoo), Leia Organa (Twin sister of Luke Skywalker & daughter of Padme and Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader) and of course Luke Skywalker (Padme & Anakin/Darth Vader's son & Leia Organa's twin brother).
And I do remember that Sophie always listens to Linkin Park not AC/DC or Motorhead (Well, I listen to such music such as Foo Fighters, Incubus & Red Hot Chili Peppers as well as Filter, Halestorm, Marilyn Manson, Deftones, Garbage, 3 Doors Down, Korn, Faith No More, Anberlin, Bush, The Offspring, Fuel, Rage Against the Machine, Pop Evil, Seether, Tool, Stone Sour, Audioslave, Queens of the Stone Age, Puddle of Mudd, Royal Tusk, Red Sun Rising, System of a Down, Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, P.O.D., Blink-182, Disturbed, Breaking Benjamin and of course The Smashing Pumpkins but Leon 'The King' Benbaruk always listens to Pink Floyd not U2) and she is a Final Fantasy fanatic (Just like my ex-step sister Johnella not Jhonella) because her favorite character is Rikku (Not Yuna, Tidus, Auron, Lightning, Cloud Strife, Tifa Lockheart, Sephiroth, Squall Leonhart, Rinoa Heartilly, Qusitis Trepe, Irvine Kinneas, Selphie Tillmit, Zell Dincht, Seifer Almasy, Laguna Loire, Kiros, Ward as well as Edea Kramer, Headmaster Cid Kramer, Ellone, Fujin, Rajin and the evil Sorceress Ultimecia).
And finally, I label Leon & Hanne as the best couple I have ever met hands down but with a great sense of humor, and how did Dad get that computer game Doom (The Protagonist is simply Doomguy because the game is set in 3 episodes where you have 8 levels + 1 super secret level on each episode such as Knee-Deep in the Dead (Located on Phobos) as well as The Shores of Hell (Located on Deimos) and Inferno (Located on Hell itself) but the monsters are Zombieman, Shotgun Guy, Imp, Pinky, Lost Soul, Cacodemon, Baron of Hell, Cyberdemon and the Spiderdemon and of course the weapons such as Fists, Chainsaw, Pistol, Shotgun, Chaingun, Rocket Launcher, Plasma Rifle and the ridiculously powerful BFG 9000) back in the day during the 90's because my 1st computer/video game I have played was either Doom or Indycar Racing when I was so ridiculously young as a little kid way back then like back in the day but does my half-brother Jansen play Doom as well? No, certainly not.
And it was in June that I also did a blog about the preview of Euro 2016 held in France so let's get started on Euro 2016 because I am still looking forward to it so let's have a look at the teams:
Group A
France (Hosts & 2 time winners in 1984 and 2000 (The last time they won with the likes of Patrick Vieira, Didier Deschamps (Who is the current coach/manager of France), Zinedine Zidane (Future Real Madrid coach/manager) & Thierry Henry).

Austria (Led by Leicester City's Christian Fuchs while David Alaba of German champions Bayern Munich is the star man)
Hungary (Led by key player Balasz Dzsudzak who is trying to emulate Ferenc Puskas's hopes)
And of course the All Blacks will go into the test series against Wales (Led by Gareth Bale's answer to rugby Sam Warburton & featuring the likes of Alun Wyn Jones, Taulupe Faletau, Rhys Webb (Who missed the 2015 Rugby World Cup due to injury), Dan Biggar, Jamie Roberts and George North) as World Champions but the team has been named so here is the starting lineup for the 1st test match at Eden Park (Remember folks that Poppa and I are going to the Wellington one in 9 days time):
1 (Loose head prop): Joe Moody (Canterbury/Crusaders)
2 (Hooker): Dane Coles (Wellington/Hurricanes)
3 (Tight head prop): Owen Franks (Canterbury/Crusaders)
4 (Lock): Luke Romano (Canterbury/Crusaders)

& 15 (Fullback): Ben Smith (Otago/Highlanders)
And in the reserves are Nathan Harris (Who had won his place ahead of Codie Taylor), Wyatt Crockett, Charlie Faumuina, Patrick Tuipulotu, Ardie Savea (Who makes his debut on the bench), TJ Perenara, Beauden Barrett & Seta Tamanivalu (Who also makes his debut on the bench).
And during the month of June that I did a blog about the Euros getting underway as well as the All Blacks getting a winning start against Wales at Eden Park because the #Euro2016 is now under starters orders as hosts France opened up their campaign with a win against Romania 2 - 1 (With goals scored by Arsenal's Olivier Giroud & Dimitri Payet (Who scored the match winner) for France while Romania's Nicolae Stancu scored a penalty to equalize (I had the French flag to support France because I was backing the French to win).
And then it is over to Albania and Switzerland as the Swiss dominated from start to finish with a goal scored by Fabian Schar in the 5th minute but they held on until the end, 1 - 0 being the final score. And in Group B's action where tournament debutants Wales (Coached by Chris Coleman) triumphed over fellow newcomers Slovakia 2 - 1 with Real Madrid's Gareth Bale scoring a great goal along with Hal Robson-Kanu then Manchester United's Wayne Rooney led England (3 Lions) led 1 - 0 with a goal by Eric Dier and held on to the lead until stand in skipper for Russia Vasili Berezutski ended England's hopes of winning the game (Well I was backing England because of my ancestors but I ended up supporting Russia because I have got the Russian flag).
And then onto Group C where Poland dominated debutants Northern Ireland 2 - 1 while the World Champs Germany (Die Mannschaft coached by Joachim 'Jorgi' Low) scored 2 goals (Shkodran Mustafi & Real Madrid's Toni Kroos were the goalscorers on that night) against Ukraine while in Group D Croatia stun the Arda Turan (Who plays for FC Barcelona) led Turkey with a great goal scored by Real Madrid's Luka Modric (Who is Gareth Bale & Toni Kroos's teammate) and then the Vicente del Bosque coached Spain (La Furia Roja) took on the Czech Republic and won 1 - 0 courtesy of a goal scored by Shakira's husband (And teammate of Arda Turan) Gerard Pique of FC Barcelona.
And then it's on to Group E when the Republic of Ireland drew with Sweden led by Paris St-Germain's Zlatan Ibrahimovic at the Stade de France 1 - 1 with Wes Hoolahan scoring 1st then his teammate Ciaran Clark scored an own goal ending their chances to beat the Swedish then the 12th ranked Italy (The Azzurri) beat the top ranked nation in Europe, Belgium by 2 goals to nil with goals scored by Emanuele Giaccherini and Graziano Pelle.
And finally, on to Group F where Hungary defeated the gallant Austria 2 - 0 then the Cristiano Ronaldo (Who plays for Real Madrid along with Bale, Kroos & Modric) led Portugal had a draw against newcomers Iceland 1 - 1 with ex Manchester United player Nani scoring 1st then Birkir Bjarnson with the equalizer but the score remained until the end.
And then the next day, Slovakia defeated Russia by scoring 2 goals by Vladimir Weiss and main talisman Marek Hamsik before conceding a goal scored by Denis Glushakov then the Vlad Chichires led Romania took on Switzerland with Nicolae Stancu took a penalty to put them 1 - 0 up and they held on to the lead until Admir Mehmedi equalized therefore the match ended in a draw before hosts France had beaten Albania to seal a place in the Round of 16 with Atletico Madrid's Antoine Griezmann and Dimitri Payet providing 2 great goals right through to the death because they were absolutely on fire at the moment for Les Bleus so tomorrow England take on Wales so extra law enforcement personnel have been dispatched meaning that they have an enforced alcohol ban (+ Ukraine take on Northern Ireland in Group C as well as Germany take on rivals Poland).
So that is it for the football/soccer as we go into the rugby where the World Champion #AllBlacks side (Coached by Steve Hansen and led by the new captain Kieran Read) made a comprehensive start to the test series against the Warren Gatland coached #Wales (Led by Gareth Bale's old classmate from a Welsh High School, Sam Warburton).
And that is the game, the AB's are the winners, over Wales as they go 1 - 0 up in the test series, moments before the Stephen Moore captained Wallabies (Coached by Michael Cheika) lost but how about England (Captained by Rotorua born Dylan Hartley who missed the Rugby World Cup due to disciplinary reasons) with their new coach from Australia, Eddie Jones (Former Wallabies and Japan coach), they have just won le Six Nations Grand Chelem title by going into the test series, beating Australia 39 - 28 in the 1st test to win in Brisbane for the very 1st time and gain revenge following that Rugby World Cup Pool match defeat in which the last Rugby World Cup hosts crashed out on their own then Ireland (Who had a disappointing Rugby World Cup after losing to Argentina) beat the Springboks for the 1st time on South African soil with just 14 men on the park after South African (Coincidentally/quite frankly) born CJ Stander got red carded by deliberately taking out Springbok 1st 5 8th Patrick Lambie for a late challenge but Pat Lambie is ruled out of the 2nd test with concussion as he is being replaced by Morne Steyn of French club Stade Francais.
And what about the Stephen 'Beaver' Donald led Chiefs (Coached by Dave Rennie who are missing several key players due to All Blacks duties or injury) thrashing Wales in a mid-week fixture 40 points to Wales 7 because the Chiefs produced a huge defensive effort on Tuesday night on the way to handing Wales a 40-7 rugby crushing in Hamilton as the home side had limited attacking opportunities, but still conjured up six tries to one. Former All Black 1st 5 8th Stephen Donald set up one try, almost scored another and landed all four of his conversion attempts before going off late to a big ovation as the Chiefs had 20 players unavailable because of injury or international duty, including eight away with the All Blacks.
And today we saw the Danish Terminator of Hanne at New World (Well, she used to work there but she is a good old lady) and talked about Euro 2016 because her brother has been reading Leon's texts every time the goal had been scored then had lunch at Poppa's which is Asian because I had Italian last night & tonight for dinner and it was a great meal then we had fruit salad with coconut cream for dessert then did the job by blowing the leaves while Poppa did mow the leaves then we had before we had a last card challenge and for the 3rd time in history that I produced a clean sweep, 5 - 0, then we had cake with moccachino for me for afternoon tea then headed to the Mad Butcher then headed back to New World to get the low alcohol beer that I need to take home before we hit home to end an incredible day it was so Pops is in Fielding (Birthplace of World Cup winning All Black halfback Aaron Smith) now for a play but tomorrow I'm going with Pops to Stellar for a dinner and take part in a quiz night before we head off to 15A Kells Avenue to stay for the night then we leave Wanganui at 9:00am to see the All Blacks play Wales in the 2nd test (Yes because John Coburn has got 3 tickets to the game) in Wellington which is a 2 and a half hour drive (Not 2 and a half men) but we need to go through towns such as Kaitoke, Whangaehu, Turakina, Bulls, Sanson, Himatangi, Foxton, Poroutawhao, Levin (Which is All Black Codie Taylor's birthplace), Ohau, Manakau, Otaki, Te Horo, Waikanae, Paraparaumu, Mackay, Paekakariki, Pukerua Bay, Plimmerton, Mana, Paremata, Porirua and Johnsonville.
And I also did a blog about going to see the All Blacks play against Wales in Wellington as well as seeing my long lost aunty Cathey Middelplaats (She's with her husband John Mitchell for 10 years) & her daughter which is my cousin Paige Williams (She has 2 little brothers which are my 2 other cousins Nico & Luca Mitchell) so Pops took me to see my aunty, Cathey Middelplaats, my cousin Paige Williams (Cathey's 22 year old daughter because she has a boyfriend named Jarrod), Cathey's husband John Mitchell (Or Jon because I forgot to tell him to spell his name) & my 2 other cousins (Cathey's 2 little sons & Paige's 2 little brothers as well as my other 2 little cousins) Luca and Nico to have breakfast and have a discussion but I told Paige that I could have a selfie with her and Cathey and she agreed so a thunderous selfie was taken (Although she send her photo to my Dad but how did Cathey & Paige know my Dad?) but look at that before we had pancakes with maple syrup, yoghurt and banana for a breakfast then we had a chat and I asked Paige that this is like a council meeting before we had more discussion (Well, I told Cathey that I really want to come back here anytime as well as compared to Leon & Hanne that she and John are the best couple I have ever met but with a great sense of humor) then I had to say goodbye to them (I said bye in 3 different languages to 3 different people, French with Cathey (Because she looks like a Frenchwoman due to the fact that I once told Dad that I look like I'm Lebanese 11 years ago), German with John (He looks like a German man) and Italian with Paige (She looks like a young Italian girl) but I forgot to say to Cathey, John, Paige, Nico and Luca may the force be with you, hasta la vista baby...I'll be back next time when I come to Wellington because I got both Cathey and Paige's email addresses but Cathey's one did not work while Paige's one works hopefully) moments before we headed back home ending an incredible trip to Wellington to see the test match it was but we did stop in Levin with Poppa filled the car up with petrol as well as going to an Indian restaurant for lunch because I had samosa & Rogan Josh there.
2 days earlier, the journey begins as Pops took me to Stellar for dinner to have chicken parmigiana for dinner while for dessert is cheesecake (One of my favourite desserts) before heading off to Pops place to have a moccachino before getting a good night's sleep then the next morning, Pops wake me up to the big day by taking a shower, having breakfast, playing my go-to song at my funeral on Youtube, Through Glass by one of my favourite bands Stone Sour as well as looking the All Blacks haka which I performed twice, the lateral passes and the classic Joe Rokocoko tries before we called in here at my flat to get my referee cards that I forgot to bring them before we headed off on our expedition to Wellington but we did go through towns such as Kaitoke, Whangaehu, Turakina, Bulls, Sanson, Himatangi, Foxton, Poroutawhao, Levin (Which is All Black Codie Taylor's birthplace), Ohau, Manakau, Otaki, Te Horo, Waikanae, Paraparaumu, Mackay, Paekakariki, Pukerua Bay, Plimmerton, Mana, Paremata, Porirua and Johnsonville.
But when we arrived in Wellington, I told Poppa that I might live here one day but sometime in the near future but Pops told me that residing in Wellington is expensive due to house prices so Porirua does have cheaper houses to live (And what about Palmerston North, is it any cheaper to live?) before we headed to John Coburn & Lim Chin Keong (the Malaysian) to stay here for the night and then we had lunch there near the venue that we are going and I had burgers and chips as well as a smoothie (John Coburn told us about the Welsh parallel defence against the All Blacks at Eden Park) before we headed back to the apartment then got out because I saw some loyal Welsh rugby supporters that Poppa & John Coburn had a chat before we headed over to the TAB (Although I saw some Welsh fans when we were walking because I was wearing red so that I almost look like a traitor but I covered it up instead) to make a bet of who will the 1st try scorer will be because I picked Waisake Naholo (Well I lost that bet) while Pops & Lim picked Ben Smith (They also lost their bets) and John Coburn picked fullback Izzy Dagg (John Coburn eventually won the bet) before we headed back by watching TV on the horse races for several minutes before Pops had a siesta then John Coburn told me that there is an incident during a Euro 2016 match when flares have been thrown to Croatian players because Luka Modric's Croatia were leading during a game (Although the game was held up for several minutes) moments before Petr Cech's Czech Republic equalised with a penalty allowing the match to be drawn (In other games such as David Silva's Spain beating the Arda Turan led Turkey while Daniele de Rossi's Italy had a win against the Zlatan Ibrahimovic led Sweden) then we left at the required time of 5:00pm to go to the stadium and Pops had bought several food that we are going to have for dinner (I had a pie as well as a bacon and egg with bread muffin as well as an apple) before entering the stadium to see the test match but the security guard at the gate that no diet coke & coke zero is allowed except John Coburn's in which he snuck in so I and Pops had to drink it before entry (Well I had to drink all of it).
And here we are at Westpac Stadium for my 4th visit to the venue (And my 1st ever All Black test) to see the 2nd test of the 3 match test series between the World Champion All Blacks taking on Wales.
And what do you think of my 1st test match I have been, totally awesome right?! Well I told John Coburn that the next time I'll see him, we might go to another All Blacks test match held in Wellington, in a Rugby Championship/Bledisloe Cup encounter with the Wallabies who had not been performing well, losing to Six Nations champions England coached by Australian Eddie Jones in the 2nd test to lose the test series and the Springboks came back strong to beat Ireland and level the series at 1-1.
But all will be revealed when I write down my 50th blog (Well I might be reaching the half century mark) about the best bits over the past 5 years starting from 2012 right until 2016.
And finally that I wrote my blog about my 50th blog which is the best bits from 2012 right through to 2016 (Although I would be doing my 100th blog like next year or so) so I was with Poppa so we went to the hot pool (Well I watched the Euros with Robbie Keane's Republic of Ireland beating Daniele de Rossi's Italy 1 - 0 as well as Kevin de Bruyne's Belgium defeated the Zlatan Ibrahimovic led Sweden with a 1 - 0 victory) at the Splash Centre before we went to his home (I was trying to find the old photos of my aunty Cathey Middelplaats and my cousin Paige Williams but I couldn't find one so Poppa could find the old photos tomorrow once he finishes work) and played Last Card and won 5 - 2 just before we got the meal deal (Which is tacos or tortillas which I'm kinda confused) at New World and went to the Japanese Takeaway Momiji place where we had a miso soup as well as a chicken teriyaki bento box and it tasted very nice because I rated the restaurant 5 stars but Pops just scored a 9 out of 10 just before we went to the Rutland where we had something sweet (I had a chocolate cheesecake while Pops had a oaty caramel slice but he did not eat all of it because I finished off all of it).
And so on to my 50th blog which I will celebrate the best bits of 2012 - 2016 so here it is starting in 2012 (That was 4 years ago when I 1st started blogging) which is Jansen's Birthday Blog (London 2012 Olympics Report) is about Jansen turning 9 years old as well as the review of the 2012 Summer Olympics held in London, England, United Kingdom & the final of the 2012 Super Rugby season between the Chiefs & the Sharks & now onto 2013 featuring Rush Movie Review (+ Other News Including the All Black & Indycar Spirit) & And onto 2014 about the review of the FIFA World Cup final with Germany (Who coincidentally crushed hosts Brazil 7 goals to 1 in the semifinal) winning their 4th title with a match winning goal scored by Mario Gotze during extra time against the Lionel Messi (Best footballer/soccer player in the world) led Argentina because this one is called #2014FIFAWorldCupFinal, #GermanyVsArgentina: THE REVIEW & And so we fast forward to last year featuring both blogs such as Cricket World Cup 2015 Shorts (My 1st blog of MMXV) & Breaking Dawn: the 2015 Rugby World Cup preview:
Remember the 1st one is about the Black Caps reaching the Cricket World Cup final last year (Black Caps captain Brendon McCullum got bowled out by Australian fast bowler Mitchell Starc during the 1st over allowing Australia to regain the Cricket World Cup from India, winning the match by 3 wickets) by beating South Africa in the semi-final with only 2 balls to spare so this one is called Cricket World Cup 2015 Shorts (My 1st blog of MMXV).
And the 2nd one is about the preview of the 2015 Rugby World Cup (Won by the All Blacks who had a great but excellent campaign compared to the 1987 & 2011 ones by beating Argentina (Who advanced through to the quarterfinal after finishing runner up in Pool C with victories after losing to New Zealand against Georgia, Tonga & Namibia by beating Ireland (Who topped Pool D with wins against Canada in the opener, Romania, Italy & France (Who took on the AB's in the quarterfinal after losing to Ireland to finish runner up in Pool D after victories against Italy in the opener, Romania & Canada & lost) before losing both to the Wallabies (Who topped the pool of death in Pool A with wins against Fiji in the opener, Uruguay, hosts England (Who got knocked out of their own home turf) & Wales (Who took on South Africa in the quarterfinals after finishing the pool of death in Pool A with victories against Uruguay, hosts England (Who won the World Cup back in 2003) & Fiji before losing to Australia & lost) to advance through to the quarterfinal to take on Scotland (Who beat both Japan & Samoa & losing to the Springboks to finish runner up in Pool B) in which they won (In which the game should've & could've gone to the Scottish under controversial circumstances, they were livid) before beating Argentina in the semifinal & facing the All Blacks in the final in which they missed out by losing to them) in the semifinal & South Africa (Who famously lost to Japan in the opener in one of the greatest upsets & famous wins in the history of the World Cup before topping Pool B with victories against Samoa, Scotland & the United States before advancing through to the quarterfinal by beating Wales before losing to New Zealand in the semifinal & winning against Argentina to claim 3rd place) to determine who will claim 3rd place) in the opener then wins against Namibia, Georgia & Tonga by topping Pool C to advance through to the quarterfinal to take on France in which they won before beating the Boks (Winners in 1995 & 2007) in the semifinal & facing Australia (World Champions in 1991 & 99) in the final in which they won in a convincing fashion because they became the 1st team to go back to back, the 1st to win 3 titles & the 1st time that the All Blacks have won the Rugby World Cup on foreign soil because they have never achieved that before because they finally deserved it by earning our right) held in England (With some matches being played in Wales) which is called Breaking Dawn: the 2015 Rugby World Cup preview.
And finally, now onto this year about the preview of the Euros as well as the best international rugby team in the world, the All Blacks taking on Wales in a 3 match test series because this one is called Euro 2016 & All Blacks vs Wales preview.
That is my 37th (XXXVIIth) blog of the year 2016 (MMXVI) & my 77th overall, look forward to seeing you next time, bye from us.
