I predict a riot

CORRECTION

The World of Bollocks would like to correct an unfortunate error in a previous edition of this publication, dated September 9, 2007 and titled 'Community Service Announcement'. In this, we erroneously made the claim that the New Zealand All Blacks™ would 'choke' in the semi-final of the Rugby World Cup, in line with previously established protocols of behaviour. We apologise unreservedly for our error, which was in effect to vastly underestimate the capability of All Blacks™ to 'choke', having not even made it as far as the semi before activating Plan A, a.k.a. Operation 'Early Mark'.

We however stand by our assertion that this will lead to nationwide chaos, declaration of a state of emergency, looting in the streets, overturning of cars, burning of effigies et al, and most likely the entire All Blacks™ squad being bought outright by that bloke from Alinghi, and going on to win the 2011 Rugby World Cup for Switzerland.

Oh yeah and the Wobbilies lost too, bringing much anguish and heartache to the Liberal electorates and GPS catchments of Australia.

Sucks to be you, rugger buggers - but given that it IS all about me, not such a angst-ridden issue given that no bastard will be overly interested in talking about the egg-chasing at the pub today for Bathurst, which was looking a bit punishing after the first semi...

The Doctor is OUT.

PS Seriously, you should see the anchor on TV3 right now, back-announcing the 'highlights' of the second half - he looks like he's missed his morning dose of Zoloft. It actually looks like TV3 are parked on the same Paris rooftop as Les Murray and Johnny Warren were for SBS's France '98 coverage - except that Les or Johnny didn't look like throwing themselves off at any stage as much as old mate here...
