It's the Aussies.

The All Blacks opponents in the Rugby World Cup final have won their place this morning.

They've beaten Argentina 29-15 at Twickenham.

And there's been strong interest in the game back home in New Zealand.

Operations Manager Shanky at Fox's Ale House in Auckland told Mike Hosking he's surprised how many people turned out this morning.

"Yeah I didn't expect this many people to be honest but we've still got a good crowd, we've got 95 percent Argentinians inside."

Surprisingly Shanky said just five Australian supporters turned up.

And while rugby may not be the main sport in Australia, but there's still plenty of interest in the World Cup.

Correspondent Steve Price gave a bit of insight into how the Aussies rate their chances in the final.

"Most people in Australia who are non rugby fans who are following the World Cup say well we'll get there and the All Blacks will belt us, rugby fans are a little more optomistic than that but I think that Australia is realistic that you guys are going to go in as favourites."
