Greatest rugby team in the world. Represent New Zealand. Many teams aspire to be as great as them but fall short. Last won the World Cup in 1987. Good rivals with the Wallabies (Australia)

Errata Corrige: In my last entry I stated that the All Blacks had lost around 1 in 5 of their last 40 games. They have in fact lost only 6 of the last 41 (an average of 1 defeat every 6.83 matches). An incredible record by anyone's standard.

Wonderful, entertaining Rugby Union team who represent New Zealand. Composed of players of New Zealand and Pacific Islands origins. Name comes from misquote of journalist who had described the players as seeming to be "all backs" because of their size. Have won 8 out of 12 Tri-Nations series (Australia 2, South Africa 2), including 3 Grand Slams (South Africa 1 Grand Slam). Excellent but not unbeatable team who over the last 40 matches have lost around 1 in 5 (to Australia, New Zealand, France). Whitewashed the British and Irish Lions in the 2005 test series (won all 3 matches). Came behind South Africa, England, Argentina and France in the 2007 Rugby World Cup (along with Australia, Fiji and Scotland). Won Rugby World Cup once in 1987 and losing finalists in 1995. World Cup record not as good as Australia (winners 1991, 1999 and runners up 2003), South Africa (winners 1995, 2007) or arguably England (winners 2003, runners-up 1991, 2007). Represent the only country, apart from Wales, where rugby union is an integral part of the national character and identity.

A large group of over indulged rugby-playingchoker(s)from the southern Hemisphere, where they are preened and treated like Gods, only to discover that when confronted by opposition with a 'game plan' that they are incapable of stepping up.
The entire 2007 Rughy World Cup All Black Team.
viz..the 2005 Chicago White Sox, 2004 New York Yankees oh 2003 All Blacks, 1999 All Blacks
