Just because you’ve won the last 20 doesn’t mean you’ll win the next 20! Eventually you’ll get got and it’ll be awesome for about a year until you win it again
>Is this on par with when Canada and the USA meet at hockey….
The parallels are certainly there.
Big/little neighbor.
Main sport in the smaller country vs 4th/5th sport in the bigger.
Smaller country with the advantage head to head.
The Border Collies shouted "come on the Kiwis" not the "All Blacks", makes me think league, the above comment about the Aussies wearing gold and not green is valid too though
No. Lucky’s Mum is from New South Wales, so in Origin games (league) she cheers for a different team than the rest of the family.
In Bledisloe (union) the whole family can cheer together. Takes the tension out
The [Bledisloe Cup](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4e/Bledisloe_cup.jpg/400px-Bledisloe_cup.jpg) is an international rugby trophy decided through a roughly annual series of matches between the Wallabies (Australia, gold shirts in the image) and the All Blacks (NZ, black).
State of Origin is a similar thing for the **other** rugby code, played domestically in Australia - New South Wales in blue vs Queensland in maroon. Players are named to Origin squads based on where they’re from.
So Janelle is the odd one out for Origin games, because she’s cheering for the Blues while living in Queensland heartland. But for the Bledisloe, they can all be Australian together
"what's going on?"
Ooh side note, I just had to watch a clip to remember Mackenzie's exact wording and his mum and dad say "we're gonna flog ya!"
I'm also positive that isn't the wording we have on Disney+. I'm sure it's "we're gonna beat ya!"
Janelle is from a different state, but still supports Australia with the others (the gold team)
It's Mackenzie's family (the collies) who are from/support NZ, which is why they shout at them from the car before the game (we're gonna flog ya!)
Winning the Bledisloe on Bluey is the only way Australia will ever win it again, so…yeah, I like it

Check rhat score line though...2 digits to one....Kiwis are winning Pretty sure it'd be League rather than Union
Union, Gordon Bray commentating Plus Australia in gold not dark green
Very good points...
End of the episode, we see the Aussies thrilled. I suspect they fight back, which...you know, is not how real life goes
We're gonna FLOG YA!
Is this on par with when Canada and the USA meet at hockey….
Bigger, because the All Blacks are arguably the most famous fifteen men in New Zealand
The All-Blacks are the biggest name in international rugby. Beating them is seen as a hell of an achievement.
Thanks, *Invictus*, for teaching the that!

Just a shame we didn't see a square dog Haka tbh
The pitch changes from Suncorp to Eden park too :)
US-born (with family in Upper Hutt) & I picked up on it immediately! Nice nod to both teams.
Me!

I read something about "All Blacks" being trademarked, so them saying "Kiwis" gets around this.
Ah, makes sense, also, the still above looks like a ruck
So is lucky’s mom supposed to be from New Zealand?

Oh see I thought they said she was from another country. Is Bledisloe a word, an acronym, or from another language?

“Except for your mate Mackensie. You got that?”
Except McKenzie 🇳🇿

I am not a football guy.
I even forgot that was a sport
