Timezone's a bit friendlier for you than the US....

The main talking point here has been the fact that a lot of pub licences don't allow them to serve alcohol until noon, but kickoff was 11am UK time. The dilemmas of morning drinking...

For the Rugby world cup we generally change the licensing laws to allow boozing at inappropriate hours.

Oh, we're normally very on it for men's sport, it's a combination of it being the women, and also if we'd been in the first semi then there would have been time for pubs to apply for a variation once the result was known but being a day later that didn't work. And I think just generally it's taken people aback a bit how much interest there has been, although they should have got an idea based on the Euro finals last time.

Anyway, stupid sport, can see why the USians weren't interested...

I'm reminded of my school days when the rugby 1st 15 had a special emblem on their school jerseys. And then the cricket team. And then the netball Girls decided they could put it on their jerseys too. And then we all laughed at the 1st 15.

I thought you could tell a kiwi rugby player by the necklace they wear - a choker?
