Will NZ gain more from the Rugby World Cup if England win?

Do you think New Zealand will gain the most out of the Rugby World Cup 2011 if England win?

It's not something most New Zealand sport fans want to contemplate, but England winning the final could be very good for the New Zealand economy. Would their fans stick around in the country, savouring the atmosphere and rubbing our noses in it, longer than the fans of the other competing nations?

What nation winning the Rugby World Cup would benefit New Zealand the most financially?

I truly do hope that anybody but NZ wins this wretched world cup. I am so sick of hearing about the damn thing. The all blacks do tend to be rather arrogant and I think they will lose the plot by 2011.

Mate, we might as well hope that a team of leprechauns wins so we can steal their pot of gold. The English winning a Cup down here? Not a chance.

I'd prefer NZ to win but it annoys me that booze merchandising is associated with our team. Re. the economy, financial considerations would not be a reason to wish a team other than the All Blacks to win.

Careful, don't encourage the Government to hire a team of analysts to work this one out - might already be too late.

Bring on the spare Octopus left over from the Soccer.
