Warriors' destiny fulfilled

24 years, same ground, same stubborn and unpredictable opponents....

Never once did the All Blacks fall behind in any match during the tournament.
Never was there any doubt who is no.1 in the world, and in this World Cup.

But...
Never was there a game France deserved to win more... never was there a game the All Blacks looked less composed with the ball.
Funny old world, innit?

1 point in it in the end... a destiny finally fulfilled.


Kapa o Pango kia whakawhenua au i ahau!All Blacks, let me become one with the land
Hī aue, hī!
Ko Aotearoa e ngunguru nei!This is our land that rumbles
Au, au, aue hā!It’s my time! It’s my moment!
Ko Kapa o Pango e ngunguru nei!This defines us as the All Blacks
Au, au, aue hā!It’s my time! It’s my moment!
I āhahā!
Ka tū te ihiihiOur dominance
Ka tū te wanawanaOur supremacy will triumph
Ki runga ki te rangi e tū iho nei, tū iho nei, hī!And be placed on high
Ponga rā!Silver fern!
Kapa o Pango, aue hī!All Blacks!
Ponga rā!Silver fern!
Kapa o Pango, aue hī, hā!All Blacks!
