On behalf of the English, Cheers Henk.

Always a pleasure to beat the Aussies, but it was a close game and could have gone either way at the end.

To be honest, I'm not a big sports fan, but I do enjoy watching/listening to 'big games' like these. Be they football, rugby etc.. Being largely neutral (Unless Holland is involved.. ) I enjoy a good, close game, rather than the foregone conclusions of a whitewash. Todays game went to the wire, which makes it exiting regardless of who you might support.

talk about a nail biter.

After the Wallabies tremendous start to the tournament and their great trinations performances I thought they were a shoe-in for the finals.

Must admit I was surprised by the Poms. after their dismal 36-0... ahem.... 36-0 loss to the Boks, I didn't think they'd even get this far. Oh well... thank Johnnie

Congrats to the English. This is where the tournament really gets fun

Well,,I must be honest,,after the thrashing by the Boks,,I thought we didnt have a chance this time.
It really was a close match this afternoon though, but having worked with a bunch of Aussies for 3 years I know how passionate they are about sport, and rugby in particular,even more so when they are playing England.
Which makes this afternoons result just that little bit sweeter

Aww Rudi, we don't have to rub in, do we.. do we

A replay of the Boks game might be interesting. Is it a possible for the final?
