Well that's the rugby over in this part of the world with the Waikato Chiefs beating the Sharks 37 -6. So the cup is back in New Zealand.

The Chiefs?! I guess the days of the Auckland Blues dominating things are long gone :(
The Blues were this years joke team, think they finished close to bottom with quite a few current and past All Blacks.
Ouch...When I was a young'un, Auckland basically was the All Blacks, and we had held the Ranfurly Shield so long we took on tour (and lost it to South Taranaki....)
Timem moves on and things change...
