We’re at a loss for words, but the less said about Wayne Barnes, the better. Last weekend was as painful as that David Campese knockout in ’91 and the Argentinian defeat in Japan. We’ll be thinking of last weekend’s loss for years to come. Now we know how Mayo fans feel every year. Nevertheless we are proud of our team.
This coming Friday, New Zealand (boo!) will play Argentina, so we’re making the most of the loss and popping some of our favourite wines from each country into a case for you to enjoy with the match. If you’re watching – we can’t really blame you if you won’t be, but you should probably still have some delicious wines to get you through.
