A local chartered accountant has just revealed to The Advocate via telephone that he almost convinced himself tonight that the Wallabies were capable of winning down in Dunedin.
Glenn Carmichael, a 47-year-old office person, said the three quick tries early on in the piece were enough to keep him on the couch with his failing eyes glued to the television.
“I thought, fuck me. We might be on here,” said the Betoota Ponds Rotary President.
“You know, three quick tries on a class outfit in a place where they can’t be beaten. I got half a chub thinking about sticking to these fucking Kiwi economic refugees that litter our office like plastic in the Northern Pacific,”
“Maybe next year.”
Mr Carmichael then told our reporter that he was going to finish the rest of his cheeky inside cigarette before retiring to bed.
The final score was 35-29 and the All Blacks retain the Bledisloe Cup.
More to come.
