Yesterday was not just Halloween, it was also the day of the Rugby World Cup final between New Zealand and Australia.

So Drogon put on his costume and performed an interpretative dance in tribute to Dan Carter.

Carter accounted for most of the All Blacks’ points in the first half, then calmly smothered the Wallabies comeback with a drop goal followed by the longest penalty kick in the tournament.


We call it an interpretative dance, but Drogon really did not want to put the wings on and was trying to wriggle out of his costume.

Saffy would not wear her Bunnicula costume, either. If you want animals to cooperate, get dogs.


Probability of Saffy putting on costume: zero.

All Blacks over the Wallabies, 34-17. Even with the impending retirement of Dan Carter and Richie McCaw, the New Zealand team is so far ahead of the field that they could win it again in 2019.
