Good luck! Samoa might be a tough challenge for you, considering their history against you in World Cups and their win against Aussie this year. But I hope you do well. Wales are an awesome team to watch.
I've got a ticket for the first game of the tournament. So excited. The noise from the crowd of 62,000 when the men in black come onto the field for the first time is gonna be something I'll never forget.

I do think this is the strongest NZ World Cup squad we've had since I started following rugby in '99. There's some incredible talent in the backs. And it's the most experienced team we've ever had in a World Cup, which should help when it comes to handling the pressure. But no one can deny that choking has been a huge problem for us in the past, and the pressure and expectation is so huge this time that you have to say there's a risk of it happening again. Hope not, though!

The excitement is really building now. Everywhere you look in Auckland there's hundreds of flags. 7000 people went to meet the Tongan team at the airport yesterday!
It sounds like the fireworks over the harbour on Friday will be awesome. I'll be at the stadium so won't see them, but the opening ceremony at Eden Park should be good too. And I can't wait until kick-off in the first game.
