Bloody Poms

A trophy to the man who breaks Johnny England's Left leg. He's single handedly ruined the game of Rugby Union with his pathetic field goals.

bloody whinging aussies

i believe we scored as many tries as you this morning/last night, ours was a better 'rugby' try as well, but i forgot... we can't score tries! haha...

I have to say though, you boys didn't lack conviction.. but thats never been a problem has it?

Yeh, because no one ever kicked penalties or drop goals before Wilkinson came along besides, you took the same number of penalty attempts as we did in the final, the mans already got a trophy as of last night, he doesn't need another
We played just as fluent rugby as you did, you played well, kept your composure in the second half, but so did we, would've had a couple more tries if it hadn't been for handling errors.
The best team came out victorious in the end

haha, stop moaning you bloody aussies. Have some good sportmanship about you!

the words sore & loser come into it, the attitude of most the auta's has been cool over it, but c'mon, theres no need for bs like that, we both only scored 1 try each

Twas a pretty tough time to be a dual national. :-/

I honestly didn't give a shit who won (doubled by the fact that, up until this world cup, I'd hardly watched a game of rugby in my life - one of the many benefits of being a Victorian ) but what I couldn't stand was the bullshit invective coming from both sides during the world cup and leading up into the final. It was primarily media based, but still, the kinda shit that was being written (by both the Australian and English media) about the other side was shocking. I think the English and the Australians are more similiar than we'd care to acknowledge, yet based on what I've seen and read from journalists from both sides, you'd think we'd been at war with each other for decades. So a big "fuck you" to both the English and Australian press who transcended the normally jocular way in which we get stuck into each other and transformed it into humourless national warfare.

Yet, having said that, congratulations to England and bad luck to Australia. Both played well (based on what I know about rugby ) and I'm sure we'll all agree that it was a good game and it was a shame there had to be a loser. Hopefully all the parochial dickheads will shut up for another four years and we can put all this behind us.... until the ashes of course.

Well said, i totally agree. I love australia and the aussies after having been there for about 6 months. So right, shame there had to be a loser. I have the highest level of respect for both sides.

So who won then?

to be fair, there is no comparison between the way the aussie media reported and the way the english media reported.

i'm not even gonna bother with the ashes, the australian cricket team is phenomenal.

I disagree very much so. As much as rugby is a full on physical sport, kicking and accuracy is vital as it brings a different element in the gane.

For a team to have such a good goal kicker as johnny wilkinson is vital to their performance.

I think England played a very good game of rugby and deserved to win.


but what would I know.. im south african after all

wooooo

gg everyone

*waves

haha lol @ some of us.

It was only the best game of the tournament guys, so we didnt win for once, boo hoo. A lot of people at the start of the tournament didnt even expect us to get this far.

Well what a fucken match!! The two penalty kicks from Flatly to keep us in it had me n all ma mates afraid to watch, hahahah.. Both sides deserved to win, and it turns out Johnny FUCKEN Wilkenson's beautiful boot won it for the English massive. I'm glad that it was such a close match, and Wilkenson didn't just pot dropkicks the whole game. I think i'll be the only aussie to say well done to England

I must say I'm Victorian and only watched like 1 other match of rugby in my life. But I enjoyed this one, was very entertaining while getting drunk with a few mates.
Err like well done England or something I guess...

love your work

it was a fuckin brilliant game and england couldve won by alot more (and should of) but the desperation shown by the aussies is what kept em in the game. flatleys nerve under pressure scored him some brownie points with me cause he is otherwise shit (and has a mighty big chin might i add, how he keeps his chin from slapping his dick is beyond me)

I dunno why any aussies should be feeling sore, after all it was a bloody good game and imo, we were lucky to get into overtime (thanks to flatley's crunch-time kicking)... England played better for virtually the whole game, but couldn't seal it at the end .. i mean, half the time gregan couldn't even get his hands on the ball outta the scrum cuz england's scrum was too good ... bloody good effort by both teams, and as the commentators couldn't stop saying enough - THE WINNER IS RUGBY!

So close, yet so far........

Well done to both teams in putting on a brilliant game for us fans.

bloody pohm's

pwned by johnny. that is all.

australia played bad, not well, after that first try. it was just downhill from there. too much fumbling, offence was weak, defense was shot.. and the poms totally dominated the last 10-15 mins going into half and then pretty much the rest of the match.

australia had many opportunities, but couldn't convert. oh and the poms had two near try opportunities.. imagine if those went down.

gg to both teams, but australia needed a performance similar to the one that took down the kiwis to win and they just couldn't bring it on the night that counted.

I think the scoreline was pretty reflective of the match - England played better than we did, but not by much.

We dominated the first 15 minutes, but while Larkham was in the blood bin for the next 10-15 minutes, we really lost our momentum. Matt Giteau is good, but has none of Larkham's experience or guile. That said, I thought we were the better side in the second half (except for our exceptionally poor lineouts and scrums). Remember England went scoreless for the entire second half, while we gradually reeled them in through penalty goals.

I agree that England have a bit of "Jonny and the Wilkinsonaires" about them, but he wouldn't be able to take potshots at goal like that if his forwards weren't dominating the breakdown.

Where to from here for the Aussies? Firstly, sack Wendell Sailor, send him back to rugby league. Guess who fell off the tackle on Greenwood that lead directly to Robinson's try? Guess who missed a tackle that let the other England player into a certain try-scoring position (he dropped the ball)? He can't kick, and can't tackle. Every other winger manages to kick and tackle properly (Rogers, Tuqiri, Roff), so why does Wendell automatically qualify for the team? What an absolute disgrace.
