I am a die hard rigby fan and have benn since the day I first played the game as a young fella through to my early twenties.

We were defeated, and by the better side on the day. England, to there credit, didn't play the boring rugby that we are used to England playing. Of course Jonny, did his bit, but he is part of the 15, and if he scores England scores!

Finally, it took those pommies 16 years to get the William Webb Ellis into the northern hemisphere, but it will be back down here before too long!!!

Next time we will have to come up with something better than 'walzing watilda' to compete with 'swing low etc'. I didn't hear the aussie crowd through the box once tonight!!!

If you think we are land full of criminals, why do you come here in such numbers you dreary mob!!!

Duuuhh! Cos being bad is so much more fun.

Anyway, Matilda may be a boring girl, but God save etc ain't exactly kicking, is it? Reckon we should adopt Land of Hope & Glory, or maybe Jonny B Good!

Great Game. Both teams played well with England deservably taking the silverware.

England can now dust off the trophey cabinet. The brag wall has been empty for some time.

At least the League boys have brightened up my Sunday with a 3-0 Ashes result.

18-12 after being down 06-12 with 5 minutes to go.

Oh well, on to the Davis Cup.

As a matter of fact, the League Test Series went to us 3-0.

But well done to England in the union. They played fantastically throughout and they deserve the win...

League results...........who cares!

Great game................Yes!

Ohhh how sweat it was to see the Aussies lose in the final seconds, now many times have the AB's lost to the Aussies in that fashion. (lot's)

At least the Wallabies and Kiwi's can now both be LOSERS.


Congrat's England! well deserved

The best game of rugby Ive seen in a looong time!

Drop goals need to worth 1 point (not that that would have
changed the outcome)

The funniest moments were the english fumbles approaching
the unfamiliar chalk line!

You poms better give yourTEAM the biggest victory parade since WW11 when they get back ,they deserve it, World Champions.

Totally deserved victory to ENGLAND. Unmatchable performance.


Every England Team MEMBER made the difference it wasnt just the Kicker.

The English Fowards did the hard yards last night. Thats what lynched it for you and Australia was playing catch up football which doesnt work Much. Both Back lines have the Talent.

If only Australia could go back in time and have Michael Lynagh instead of Flatley, who played well, But is kicking range told the story in the end.

Well done England long break between drinks, victory musty be sweet.

I also believe some of Australias League imports to Rugby are being carried so to speak, I think especailly Sailor. The ARU must be bound into a "financial no out" with him. Sad really


WELL DONE ENGLNAD. PLAYED HARD RAN STRONG!

I never heard "AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE "ALL NIGHT.

News just in...

Mrs Wilkinson had gone shopping in Newcastle (the English one, that is!) and was getting her groceries in Tesco when someone told her of Jonny's championship kick!

A 4-pack of baked beans & the Webb-Ellis trophy, please!

Slamer,

I agree, who cares about the league! Stupid boring bloody game.. 5 tackles, kick, and so much for the"scrums". The only time there is any variation is when somebody drops a ball.

One of the best games of rugby I have ever seen. And a great performance by the wallabies, even though you watched. It took until the last 28 seconds of the 20 minutes extra time for them to beat us. But well done England, you were the better team of the whole tournament! (But I still don't like you)

Ah, yes. But our brains were befuddled with the amount of Neighbours & Home & Away you ******s sent us.

Kylie was alright, though.

Yeah, we're happy with Kylie

Oh yes, Kylie...!
