Greg Growden rolls out a few World Cup jokes after the All Blacks' brilliant dismantling of South Africa in The Sydney Morning Herald.
"Despite all the euphoria surrounding the All Blacks' swashbuckling win over the Springboks, the usual jokes about the Kiwis' inability to win a certain big trophy are getting another airing. Even if some of the gagsters have blatantly plagiarised lines directed at England and the football World Cup, they are worth retelling.
"The one going around yesterday involves a genie, who has granted the person who released him from the bottle one wish. ''I want to live forever,'' the person says. The genie slowly shakes his head, saying he cannot grant such a wish. ''Fine, instead I want to die when New Zealand win the World Cup.''
