Australia v. England
-
Well what can I say, an impressive score. Bit shaky for the first 10/15mins of the second half, but came back. Anyone else watch it? Lewsey's tackle on Rogers... whew! -- Paul "Put the key of despair into the lock of apathy.

Score?? All I can find is some story, clearly written by a madman, that says England is leading Australia. cheers, Chris Maunder

The game sucked arse. We couldn't hold on to the ball to save our arses. That Pommy faggot number 9 kept coming around to the side of the scrum and pulling the leg of the Aussie lock who was keeping the ball in the scrum as happens in Union. Unfortunately that blind Irish bastard couldn't see anything. Wouldn't have been too bad if those fat whiney Pommy bastards would get off the tackled player to allow play to flow. England didn't deserve the win but with our pathetic play we deserved the loss. That Pommy number 11 sliced us in half with a great run half way through the second half for a try as well.

;) Cohen's try was particularly great. However, Greenwood's and Tindall's were also pretty damn nice. Mind you, both teams did make rather a few handling errors and Wilkinson did make a few silly decisions to kick when passing may have been a better option. Still, sets it up for the World Cup now!! -- Paul "Put the key of despair into the lock of apathy.

There were lots of mistakes on both sides, but England played better for longer, so they deserved the win. There were a lot of decisions that I think the ref got plain wrong, or at least didn't see, but they were on both sides, not just against the Aussies. I just enjoy watching it - I don't really mind how the result goes, although it's always nicer to come out with a win ;) Ryan Being little and getting pushed around by big guys all my life I guess I compensate by pushing electrons and holes around.
