I think LR would have easily won the cup against any other defender.You joke but I really didn't hear the alarm clock! Luckily I woike up right before the start!!
AC36: The Match (6-15th March. Reserve days to the 21st)

Brilliant, we get to do this again in Auckland in 4 (or 3?) years.
A lot of things were great this time, hopefully with the class proving out (to most) and a bit of fine tuning (and no pandemics!) it can be even bigger and better next time round.
Impressive sailing by LRPP.
Well done Team NZ!

I want to congratulate in particular with @Forourselves who is a diehard Kiwi fan.
We had many fight here on the forum but I always respect people proud of their Country.
Good job mate. Deserved victory. Now time for the party!

Great show by ETNZ, sailing a whole regatta in wind strengths where they were likely at their relative weakest, and yet still winning.
And gutsy performance from LR tactically wringing everything they could out of a boat that was a click slower - to the point that they made for an initially tight competition and a final scoreline that somewhat flatters ETNZ. I really hope that Mr Bertelli stays in the great game, he has been just about the classiest competitor in the whole history of the cup, and it's rather sad he has never (yet) held it aloft. They are a very strong team and I hope they continue into AC37.

Great win from Burling and the boys........so happy, and relieved......Huge congrats to team Luna Rossa, damn good effort from them, really hope they come back. Really enjoyed the banter with Strider and the Italian supporters in here......commiserations lads......
Agree - when the thought of the Italians winning crossed the mind (briefly of course!) earlier in the series, the consolation would be that there could hardly be a more deserving country to look after the cup for a bit.
It will be in Auckland.

Well done NZ! Great boat well sailed.
Good challenge LR, really hope they win it next time.... even if there is an Australian team.... we can win it the cycle after next!
