Posted this in the 'Beer Chick' thread, as it ( the beer chick ad) is actually one of a series of adds running in Aus at the mo featuring a Rugby World Cup theme.  But I guess it was too abstract for most, so I'll post it here too .

Go the Wallabies!!

The funnny part is that everyone had written off the wallabies before they played the kiwis on sat...

now it's "bring on the Poms"

If the Aussies play like they played on sat, it should be a third World cup to australia...(did anyone else think they kiwis, and aussies switched jerseys that game?)

If it's a kicking duel, then it should be those pommie bastards getting the win!

I saw the same joke with the Wallabies substituted for New Zealand just before the semi-finals. How times have changed ........
