Told my son - "c'mon lets go support em, not much chance but at least we're there", by full time, tears and emotions were overflowing. I said to my Son" I had to wait 50 years for this, you only had to wait 12 ya lucky bugger....lol"
Not even kiwi. Was going for Aussies that night and never forgot this match. Was upset at first especially after that slater incident as a Storm fan but overall was happy for NZ.
I was going thru alot of personal shit in my life that year 2008, but, seeing my Kiwis Rugby League team win the WC & lift that trophy, lifted my spirit again, forever grateful for that moment in Kiwi RL history! 🇳🇿🏉🏆💯🤙
I couldn't stop crying that night. Never thought I'd live to see us win a world cup. I live in Oz and was watching it at a mates place where I was the only kiwi there. I was getting it from everyone until the last 15 minutes because everyone started leaving the party. Fortunately they left their beers! Got pissed as that night!
Same here I ended up winning the bets with heaps of beers everyone was betting on the Aussie to win at work.it was our company that came up with the idea $100 with a box of beer so my choice was 24 cartons of steinlager cuzzie money in the envelope like heaps of Money 😂😂those Aussies were pissed off lolz Great game , great night aswell We were all watching it at the Springfield Tavern I was wasted till Sunday morning 🌄 lolz
Only got old seeing the kiwis do it Becasue it only took them a hundred decades to finally win something... Aussie fans walking out of a match happens once in a blue moon champ
rugby league for ever. rugby union is certainly my second favourite game , but my first love is certainly rugby league. it will be for ever. i'm from exeter, in devon, which has a lot of football and rugby union, but not much rugby league. that doesn't matter to me. i love the game, and always will love it.
The Aussie team that night was full of some of the biggest stars of recent times, and at home in their centenary year. Absolute stunning win by the kiwis.
Brings that lump in my throat every time I watch this, it's just fucking incredible. Credit to the Aussie commentators too, like know it's their job to have equal opinions but they advocated that penalty try when other's would have complained. Just fuckin great.
I've always admired the Green and Golds for the exciting way they play league, and you can't beat the English fans for the way they love the game...but I'm a proud Kiwi so it was great seeing the boyz take this one!!!
I am an Aussie but this was a great win. After so many years of Australia having ownership of the world cup seeing the Kiwis win was a breath of fresh air. Now in 2022 with the Pacific nations going from strength to strength it is no longer just a trilogy but more of an actual international affair.
Yoel Jennis bull crap. He wasn't man of that match at all. Should be from the winning team but australia had already thought aussie would win the final... nek minnit
We party in the sunshine state of Qld,Brisbang 💥 back in 08 still remember it clearly but 017 was the game changer from the underdogs of the game Team Tonga hopefully it'll be back on our shore's again here in Auckland NZ 👍
The NRL are broadly (*emphasis) using the same model as the NFL - whereby they maintain control over all aspects of the sport. They have since adapted the game to appeal to wider entertainment audiences, which they can do, as their control allows them to adopt rule changes much more fluidly. Rugby League freely adapts and removes ambiguous rules and confusing interpretations, far more so than RU. I think it is in this sense that RL seeks to 'improve' on RU.
Awesom show of never give up until the siren goes aye. We've dominated union for the last centruy and now we're turning our attention to league ha,ha,ha!!!! watch the Kiwis sit on top.
LOVE RUGBY LEAGUE 🏈 SUPPORT THE GAME FOR NZRLFC 🇳🇿 TO EVER WIN THE RUGBY LEAGUE 🏈 WORLD CUP 🏆 FINAL IN 2008 IS A BLESSING KANGAROOS GOING AS FAVORITES KIWIS AS THE UNDER DOGS CAME UP ON TOP WITH THE WIN 👽
The kick out on the full from in the 22 achieves a gain in territory that contributes to the defense. 0% skill rewarded with a gain in ground. Union is a game of possession not territory, the exact opposite to what you want to believe. Union was devised by school children for amateurs League was devised by sportsmen for a paying audience.
moghnahan actually tried to turn around but acsidently tackled hohaia so mainly fiens beautifal kick hohais chase and vatuveis strength to nearly push out slater
The stats provided are the same titles that are provided for RU. Variety like throw ins, collapsed restarts, penalty goals. I was doing RU a favour by not mentioning how much time a game has when rugby was not being played.
@@ChurMyDog obviously you are clueless tool bag calling someone delusional and not facing facts, this side was no where near the best Australia team ever and if you actually did some research you would no that chump
Still born in new zealand. i dont blame your confusion though, of course you would think he is an aussie because of how state of origin works. Born and bred in New Zealand. Aussie by Census, Kiwi by heart.
@rainynightss Well in fairness, I reckon there are great tries in both union and league. I'm a union fan, but enjoy a bit of league as well - and this was a really exciting game. Let's celebrate both codes - at least they're both a man's game, unlike some I hesitate to mention.

Lol shot bro
Hahahaha! Shot bro
Yeh we said if we get within 10pts we’ll be happy how crazy was it outside the stadium afterwards
What a story, what a dialogue, what a moment with your son! Loved it mate and happy for you. Go my Aussies but love the Kiwis :)
Chuuur bro.
Damn after 7 years this game is still in my head would probably never forget this as a kiwi.
Not even kiwi. Was going for Aussies that night and never forgot this match. Was upset at first especially after that slater incident as a Storm fan but overall was happy for NZ.
Still to this day the greatest rugby league game ever to be played
As a kiwis fan I'd reckon that 2010 game was something special as well. Benji Marshall, what a player he was.
If it was such a great game, why was it filmed on a potato?
nah, the 2013 semi final vs Eng was the best.
This and the game in 2010 will always remember them. Great wins great comebacks. Was a great time being a kiwi.
MANCHESTER UNITED ok
@M Soccer: beloved by lady boys the world over..
Soccer is lame y would u sit an watch people kick a ball round 4 90mins no wonder the fans are so angry 😂😂😂
Yeah now NZ just sucks
One of Nz's sports highlight's of all time for sure. I really believed this couldn't happen being a huge league fan since a kid, was amazing!!

Great game , great night aswell
We were all watching it at the Springfield Tavern I was wasted till Sunday morning 🌄 lolz
Still gives me goosebumps! Awesome game.
What a bloody game that was! One of the best surely
Never gets old seeing Aussie fans departing before the final whistle!
Yeah even the latest world cup they walked out
Lol, both flops 😂
@@bradhodges6409 agreed! Like imagine averaging something like 55.9 over 6 tests for Australia! Do you reckon that is decent?
@@ryanboscoe9670 😂😂

remember watching this live back in nz. Best game of all time
just had to watch this again...good memories

this mornings semi final kiwis vs england shows just why this is a great game
The Aussie team that night was full of some of the biggest stars of recent times, and at home in their centenary year. Absolute stunning win by the kiwis.
This will always go down as one of the epic clashes of sport.
Brings that lump in my throat every time I watch this, it's just fucking incredible.

I could watch this all day!! I still wonder why they took so long to hand out the medals after the game and why Lockyer got man of the match
you don't know? ha ha har.
@M Soccer: beloved by lady boys the world over..
@M soccer sux.
@M yet here you are on a *League video* 😁👍🏽
Havent seen this game in years was awesome game
this mornings semi final win against england brought me here...i feel it happing again!!! Kiwis to win back to back world cups!
@MANCHESTER UNITED I see your comments everywhere on other sport videos. No one cares about you and your obsession with soccer...
@M Soccer: beloved by lady boys the world over..
Your on the wrong channel again no one gives a fuck bout you and your round balls
Still gives me goosebumps
Never get sick of watching this. Kiwis were awesome. Wayne Bennett may be an Aussie but he is the man.
What game stacked with legends on both sides💯
I am an Aussie but this was a great win. After so many years of Australia having ownership of the world cup seeing the Kiwis win was a breath of fresh air. Now in 2022 with the Pacific nations going from strength to strength it is no longer just a trilogy but more of an actual international affair.
Always sends a chill down my spine.
absolute magic game of league for the kiwis - i will watch it forever !
I walked outside that night and did the solo haka 🤣✊🏿
Looked like a great final.
Saturday ngt - October 30, 2021.
Ikr that’s why Australia and New Zealand have one of the best Rugby League rivalry in my opinion Australia 🇦🇺🇳🇿
I remember this game I had to watch it on prime tv I was so glad I watched it brings back memories
The greatest nz kiwis team ever!!!never forget this win 🙌🙌🙌
How epic was this game! 2013 repeat!
I watched this and constantly shouting, standing, and cheering!
That first try by Lockyer was brilliant. The awareness of Lockyer is unmatched by any other player
He is brilliant absolutely brilliant!!!!
😂 yeah he's great but he's awareness has been matched by other and better, joey johns the immortal for example is one
Never forget this great game ❤️❤️❤️
You can tell the aussie commentators are gutted
I think commentators in all sports get excited when the favorites don't win though...
@M Soccer: beloved by lady boys the world over..
Stirlo was cool but.
Lance Hohaia - Magician!
0:42 lockyer improves the position nek minute still 4-0
haha yea
Thank u,Thank u and Thank u agen Mr Ray Warren The Best There IS Was and Ever Will Be.....
1:10 Prime Benji🥶
I'm born in Australian, but love Kiwi's to much
Awesome moment in NZ Rugby League History. Unbelieveable
Whats funny about this match was Darren Lockyer getting player of the match LOL what a joke that was hahaha
Leyda Williams you kidding? he was brilliant like always
Yoel Jennis bull crap. He wasn't man of that match at all. Should be from the winning team but australia had already thought aussie would win the final... nek minnit
Yoel Jennis don't get me wrong Lockyer is a great player. But he wasn't best on ground in a loosing team Aswell! Come on. Benji had a blinder.
***** fuck off
LIGER ZERO lol league is pathetic
KIWIS...MAGIC...
I always remember Ray Warren's call "A Slater speculator!!"
We party in the sunshine state of Qld,Brisbang 💥 back in 08 still remember it clearly but 017 was the game changer from the underdogs of the game Team Tonga hopefully it'll be back on our shore's again here in Auckland NZ 👍
Best NZ team I swear!
Was one of the great NRL games ever
Ahhh i remember this game. best day ever.
Hopefully the Kiwis replicate this performance this year 🤙🏽🔥
Yeah well the THRASHED the kangaroos!!!!!
Thanks for the cup slater
Great coach at the helm.
One of the best wins because that was prob the best Kangaroo squads to ever grace the field Stacked from 1 to 13

These teams were great
And tbh that was proberbly the pruodst moment of my life. GO THE KIWIS !!!!
I remember this game I was so happy at the result
Australian born, soul of a kiwi
November 22nd my Nephew was born, November 22nd Kiwis win the World Cup. Amazing day!!!!
Wayne Bennett, the super OG of NRL coaching
all the dislikes are probably australians
Hahaha all cry babies locker and his team already their name printed on the cup before the game nek minute ka mate ka mate hahaha
I WAS AT THE GAME
Wayne benett is a fuckin legend
Best video on youtube
Awesom show of never give up until the siren goes aye. We've dominated union for the last centruy and now we're turning our attention to league ha,ha,ha!!!! watch the Kiwis sit on top.
Absolutely
Best pass of Slater’s career....

Arguably the best team Australia has ever fielded
No where near it 😂
Not even close
3:28 England fan cheering for the penalty try
Couldn't say it any better Ryan
We are number 1 in the world baby !
Lockyers face at the end is priceless.
Go the kiwis :P
I get chills whenever Hohaia scores that try
UP THE KIWIS AND THE PANTHERS
Rabbit Warren @ 3:26 is gold. Best commentator in the game.
Greatest Fullback ever? Perhaps so. At least Top 3 for sure. But gotta have a laugh at Billy Slater's shocker brain fade at 2:40 😂😂
The kick out on the full from in the 22 achieves a gain in territory that contributes to the defense. 0% skill rewarded with a gain in ground.
Union is a game of possession not territory, the exact opposite to what you want to believe. Union was devised by school children for amateurs League was devised by sportsmen for a paying audience.
I'm a Kiwi but I gotta say that I truly feel for Australia. Fuck I would be guttered if I were to work that hard only to lose in the final
honestly the aussies walking into the faces of the kiwis during the haka probably fired them up even more, this coming from an aussie
thank you slater :)
Is it any surprise Wayne Bennet was coaching the kiwis in this tournament...
I'm trying to find highlights of the group game between Australia vs England
moghnahan actually tried to turn around but acsidently tackled hohaia so mainly fiens beautifal kick hohais chase and vatuveis strength to nearly push out slater

Does anyone have the full game with channel nine commentary?
Watching this to reassure myself Australia can be beaten ahead of tomorrows final VS Samoa!

Well in fairness, I reckon there are great tries in both union and league.
I'm a union fan, but enjoy a bit of league as well - and this was a really exciting game.
