FYI

Christchurch parade following All Blacks victory Christchurch residents will have the chance to share in Rugby World Cup celebrations with a local parade to welcome home the All Blacks. Fresh from their win over Australia, the boys in black will be in Christchurch on Thursday afternoon, travelling around part of the central city on the back of utes before finishing at Hagley Park for a Mayoral welcome and public reception. Mayor Lianne Dalziel says Christchurch will turn on a heroes' welcome. "We're absolutely delighted to be able to host the All Blacks in our city, as they bring the Webb Ellis Cup home again. The whole country has been behind them throughout the tournament, so it's exciting to be able to celebrate with them in Christchurch. "I was inundated with requests for a homecoming parade from the moment the final whistle blew. I know there will be a big turnout for captain Richie McCaw and Man of the Match Dan Carter along with the other Canterbury players, and the team. I remember an All Blacks coach saying that the All Blacks wasn’t a team of champions, it was a champion team and we will welcome them as a team who have done us proud."
