yep - glad I haven't got the house on it lol

(just the missus and the kids ;))
but just as well for that last 10 minutes - and Jonny W (also) only getting 2 out of 4 yes? (as did Mortlock)
 
yep, England are playing better.

intelligent rugby.

not what we expected.

oz has always played better second half.


(i hope)
 
sam and pat - nope lol
If we win this it will be 100% against the run of the play :2twocents
still - with a lill bit of luck ;) -
and plenty of spirit there
 
lol
how much does it look like he's dropping the kids of at the pool evertime he goes for a penalty?

hahahaha
 
Yes Australia played quite a poor game, no where near the level of intensity that England played at.
 
lol
well done poms - deserved winners
but
if it ends up you play the All Blacks ( i.e. the winner of France and NZ)
then - if it wasn't clear who we'd be cheering for BEFORE tonight
then guess what lol
it's clear now ;)

Cant wait to see the All Blacks break Wilkinson in half!!! :D
 
gee that was a tough match to watch if you are an aussie supporter. i hate being critical but the aussies fumbled and bumbled their way through the match.

the one thing i hate about rugby is that teams that do not score any tries in a match often win, and tonight that was just the case.
 
the scrum is the key to rugby and tonight illustrated it perfectly.
not good enough. it doesnt help when the halfback is rubbish as well.
guess its time to sit back and enjoy the footy for footys sake.
 
Congrats England
well, i said england could win but I didn't realise how poorly australia had to play for it to happen.
george was terrible and should be "shot" for impersonating a halfback...not sure which team he played for??
australians did not have the desire to win...only to believe in the hype that was being said about them. Read more sensible comments in this forum than I heard in the last fortnight on tv.
wilkinson did not win the game, in fact he almost lost it for england, we gave it to them...
I can't help feel we lacked any cohesive attack near the try line, relying on individual brilliance, which tonight was sadly lacking. How many times was the left wing free to run onto a chip kick...but ...
almost glad they're out...cause they (oops, i'm still an aussie), we are second rate...can now barrack for the kiwis...these guys want to win and know how to win! Let's hope they don't "choke".
Goforrit kiwis!!
Looking forward to the game later this morning!
 
lol DTM :)

tough luck Australia, I don't think anyone really expected that!! Englands pack were awesome today, kept Oz moving back, pretty tough for Gregan when he was always on the back foot. & you guys missed Larkham

Its going to be a great semi final!
