Henry vs. Deans
It's the clash everyone has been waiting for - the All Blacks versus the Wallabies. But, most importantly...
It's Henry versus Deans.
Henry's reappointment as the All Black coach left a lot of New Zealander's bitter, especially in the Canterbury region, where Deans is portrayed as a cult figure. It's also left many Kiwis claiming that they'll support Australia in this year's Tri Nations, which we think is absolute insanity.
Simply put - any Kiwi who supports Australia should be ashamed of themselves. To think there are New Zealander's out there supporting the Wallabies...we just can't get our heads around it. It's simply unbelievable.
Anyway...
With the Wallabies getting the surprise victory over the Springboks in Perth, the All Blacks won't be able to take this game lightly. Not that we think they will - Bledisloe Cup matches are always tough.
Just when you think the Wallabies have no chance, they step up and beat you...but the All Blacks will by no means be easy to down.
The return of Richie McCaw to training has bolstered our chances, and he's a real chance of playing this weekend. Against the likes of George Smith, he'll be crucial to our chances.
There are a few changes expected to the All Blacks side - Jimmy Cowan looks like he's going to get his first start of the year (it's about time if you ask us), and Richard Kahui is rumoured to be starting at center.
The time has come, folks. Henry vs Deans - bring it on!
