Yet again – CONGRATULATIONS!!! :smiley: :smiley:

Despite almost snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, England has indeed actually won a sporting competition. Well done, all.

In other news, Hell is currently experiencing blizzard conditions…

That was killing me. I thought we were gonna go through extra time level. :slight_smile:

Well done, old chaps.

Both teams had heart, but the English were playing damn near perfect Rugby. They were the better team, right from kickoff. No question. Even the Aussie commentators are saying so.

And if that wasn’t the best game of rugby EVER…
CONGRATULATIONS ENGLAND.

:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

TheLoadedDog, thank you for your noble words.

Woo!

Brilliant game.
Well deserved win by the Poms.

I almost died thinking it would go into second extra time. What a great game! I don’t think either side (even though we’d doubtless enjoy the ribbing) wanted a complete thrashing. Much better to know you’ve won and had to work to get it, or that you lost but there was no shame in it, because it was a true competition.

Cheers England. Thanks for the great game. :smiley:

Wooooooooooooooooo!!! Bring it on!!!

:smiley: :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:

I thought Vickery was going to concede one too many penalties. He was a liability.

I think theLoadedDog is being sarcastic…
An awful game, tense but awful…

Who cares, we won… :smiley:

I reckon those Aussies have got a good idea in making a drop goal worth only one point…:smiley:

Boring Boring England,
Boring Boring England…

World cup?

I didn’t even know the earth had gonads.

Yep . Actually boring Ruby Union. The only times I got to leap up and yell β€œgo! go! go!” at the TV were Lote Tuquiri’s two great runs, sadly only one of which ended in a try. And Matt Rogers forgot what game he was playing at one stage I think.

Well done to England though (I was thinking of pitting Jonny Wilkinson, but thought that would probably not be very sportsman-like) and well done the Wallabies.

Did anyone notice Australia won the Rugby League Ashes AGAIN?

I dunno - have a look at what he’s done to G’Dope!

Y’know… sort of like baseball’s World Series but with, erm… teams from all over the world…

Congratulations! I was neutral yet I was falling over the barstool in excitement - I can’t imagine what it must’ve been like for you guys. Great match.

I think a campaign should to be launched to have Johnny Wilkinson knighted by the Queen.
