Wasn't very convinced by England's win over Italy who were sporting the poorest side I've ever seen in the 6 nations. At Wales today who look the strongest side in it. Dont really fancy our chances much, we need to up our game significantly.

Gutted! We realy should have won that but shocking lack of discipline by us gave that to Wales. Huge improvement from the first match though and seeing that I honestly think Ireland will win the 6 nations.

Worsley completely deserved man of the match. Loved the commentators reaction to giving it to him being booed.

"I dont care because I'm right!" :24::nod:

Who is playing?

I dont care who wins, as long as its not the French "eye gougers" or the Springboks.

Coffs Harbour where I live is the home of the Wallabies

yeah, but I havent heard anything

Are the Aussies and All Blacks playing?

Or are you all scared of us:ninja

No, that's the world cup and I hardly think England are likely to be scared of the Aussies or the Kiwis, given that we knocked Australia out in the last WC and beat the Aussies in the WC before that and the Kiwis have done fuck all for 20 years. Time you lot caught up. :p

Cricket is a shit game anyway so I wouldn't know about that. Having a good kicker is far less lucky than when David Campese deliberately cheated to the win the WC for you 15 odd years ago. We play fair, Aussies cheat to win and then call us the wingeing POms (Prisoner of mother England). Irony on two levels! :24:

I agree with you about the cricket...don;t remember the Campese thing, what happened?

How did he deliberately cheat? (or was that just a Pom excuse for losing).:jk


You just wait till we beat you at soccer:24:

The Campese thing is world wide known as disgracefull cheating.


It took an act of cheating to win the second World Cup. David Campese, the Australian wing, broke the laws of Rugby Union to deny England a try in the final at Twickenham in November. The Australians won 12 - 6 with a rock solid defence that had earned them a ticket to Twickenham after conceding only three tries in the tournament.


England, who had been criticized earlier for playing conservatively, played with verve and enterprise. But a pass to Rory Underwood, which which would have left the England wing a clear run to the line, was deliberately knocked-on by Campese. The referee, Derek Bevan, awarded a penalty and not a penalty try as many believed would have been appropriate. England reached the final with close victories against France in Paris and Scotland at Murrayfield, while Australia had accounted for the defending champions New Zealand.

As for real football, you did actually beat us the last time we played though it was a seriously weakened England side and in a pointless friendly.;)

ahh yes, I remember now. I remember my dad was disgusted, and said it was worse than when Chappell bowled underarm to the kiwis.

HA! Of course we can only beat you with a depleted opposition, and it was still probably only 1-0.

Maybe in another 20 years or so.....

What a dramatic to end to it with Ireland just winning the grand slam for the first time in ages in the final few minutes after Wales had looked like stopping it just before that!

Was pleased that England finished with a win against Scotland. Was only expecting us to beat Scotland and Italy before it started so I should be pleased with the three wins but honestly, I think we would have had a really good shot at the grand slam ourselves if our lack or discipline hadn't let us down so badly in the first three games.
