Well, the All Blacks hopes of another victory against the much improved Wallabies side (Who had their 1st win under new coach Dave Rennie & became the 1st nation since England in last years Rugby World Cup semifinal to beat New Zealand) in Brisbane have been dashed or should I say fell through (And I mean, what went wrong for the AB's to lose a test match like this? They were without key men such as Caleb Clarke, Dane Coles, Jack Goodhue, Richie Mo'unga & Aaron Smith (The All Blacks tend to lose matches if Coles, Mo'unga & Smith is not playing unlike in last year before our semifinal in the Rugby World Cup against England that New Zealand tend to lose matches even if Matt Todd is not playing because Todd didn't play in our defeat in the hands of the English after being ruled out of the semifinal with a shoulder injury) after both sides have had both players sent off (1st it was tight head prop for the All Blacks Ofa Tu'ungafasi (5th All Black to be sent off in a test match as he joins the late Cyril Brownlie, the late Sir Colin Meads, Sonny Bill Williams & Scott Barrett but Tu'ungafasi is likely to miss the remainder of the Tri Nations with a possible ban/suspension after being cited by the citing officer) followed by a Wallaby blindside flanker Lachlan Swinton for both high & dangerous tackles (A high tackle in rugby is like a gunshot with the high arm of a rugby player is the same as a bullet of a firearm so getting high tackled is like getting shot by a gun) of each side by referee Nic Berry (Who I guess made the right decision to send both of these players off) as well as a yellow card by both Marika Koroibete for Australia just before halftime & Scott Barrett for New Zealand during the 2nd half but we were not able to overcome the red card compared to Australia (And there was only 1 side that overcame the red card & it was the Wallabies who did it) but the All Blacks lead the Tri Nations standings by 2 points after getting a losing bonus point against the Wallabies (Let's hope that Australia stumble against Argentina & try & win us the Tri Nations title) & the next match that New Zealand is playing is against Argentina (One of 3 tier 1 countries to have never beaten the All Blacks along with Italy & Scotland) which we got to regroup (After our 2 point loss against the Wallabies (Who exactly didn't give up the fight during the match) in Brisbane despite we had the Bledisloe Cup trophy in the bag) at Bankwest Stadium in Sydney in 6 days time but the good news is in America that former US Vice President & Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden has been elected the new US President after successfully winning the American general election for the Democratic party by taking over responsibility from unpopular president, Donald Trump (Who will be no longer president effective from inauguration day on the 20th of January next year after serving 4 years as the commander in chief when he took over from Barack Obama (The 1st African American & black US President & last good president before Trump (Who was the worst compared to Obama who was simply the best) & successfully defeated Hillary Clinton (Wife of former US president Bill) in the mother of all political upsets 4 years ago in 2016 & the 4 year reign of Donald Trump (1st US president not to win a 2nd term since George H.W. Bush in 1992 when Bill Clinton won the right to become the new US President for which he served from 1993 to 2001 before George W Bush took over then Obama, Trump & now Biden (Who will set to become the oldest living US president at 77 & it looks likely that Biden will become the 46th President of the United States as well but Biden's running mate Kamala Harris will be the 1st female vice president of the United States) as president of the United States is over (Many Americans are happy & relived that Trump is ousted by Biden).
So that is my 374th blog of the year 2020 (MMXX) & my 34th of this year.
P.S. And I told Pops today that I never condone in violence now that I'm a pacifist whenever defeat is in the All Blacks sights.
