I think ACFC did us proud. They appeared slower, which is to be expected against full-time professionals, but often retained possession well and showed considerable composure. Liked the introduction of Tade and Browne, showed attacking intent. Krishna seemed to be everywhere. This was probably the last CWC hurrah for Vicelich, Danko, Pritchett and Dickenson (note three of them Kiwis JV). I bet Fifa breathed a sigh of relief at the final result. ACFC almost spoilt the party once again. Well done lads.
Only one of them is a Kiwi.-- Vicelich is the only one born in NZ
What utter nonsense. With some 40% of NZ citizens currently not born in this country you're saying they're not Kiwis, no matter how long they've lived here. We're a nation of immigrants Leggy and JV, or haven't you noticed. A number of All Whites like Tommy Smith, Storm Roux, Andrew Durante - you saying they shouldn't be playing for NZ? McGlinchey only spent eight months in NZ after he was born. Does that make him a NZer when someone who spent most of their life here but was born elsewhere isn't? You and JV really need to get off this narrow-minded wagon. If someone is a NZ citizen, they're a Kiwi, no matter where they're originally born. To say Pritchett, who has spent most of his life here and played for ACFC since its formation in 2006 (and the Kingz before that) isn't a Kiwi is plain stupid, even for you guys.
