    Rugby: Autumn Internationals

    Watched both Wales/Australia and England/All Blacks with some friends and colleagues--there's a bit of rugby interest where I work even though I'm not a particular follower of the sport. New Zealand looked very dominating, but it doesn't take an expert to say that.
