The Red Guards playing Rugby for the first time, surprised themselves by taking a 5-0 lead into the halftime break. The Red Guards opened the scoring when a well-worked lineout move deep in the France 22 allowed Rabbi Benjamin Blech, disguised as Tony Woodcock, to charge through a gap in the French defence and sprint 10m to touch down for his first ever Rugby try in his first ever Rugby match.
Rabbi Yonason Golden, dressed in a Richie McCaw suit, said they didn't think they would take the lead into halftime. "Our plan was to figure out the rules, and make a dramatic second half comeback. But, no one likes to be nice to the French!"
Rabbi Yaacov Perrin, disguised as Stephen Donald, kicked a 45th-minute penalty try to give the Red Guards an 8-0 lead. "I wasn't planning on being Stephen Donald in the match!" said Perrin, "But the Jerome Kaino suit didn't fit me! But it all seemed to work out as this obscure guy scoring the winning points made the media types happy!"
The Red Guards then let the French score a try, even letting them place the try by the goal posts for an easy conversion. After that, the Red Guards let the French put pressure on them so as to make the New Zealand fans feel some tension. Said Rabbi Perrin: "I heard that the All-Blacks have only won one world cup before."
At the end of the match, Rabbi Yonason Golden, who had the honor of holding aloft the Webb Ellis Cup, was asked what he thought of Rugby. Said Golden: "It is not as tough a game as American Football. I think I will take up the sport when my National Football League career ends!"
