We can do these! Just gotta remember 2003!

Noooo! George Clancy!

On another note, anyone else feeling nostalgic after hearing John Taylor doing the announcements? One of the voices of my rugby youth.

How did the Aussies not score then?

England did win the 1966 WC .. as for having it rammed down your throat every four years .. change the record .. of course the Scots , William Wallace , the Welsh ---- and the Irish never bang on about anything .. why you have never won ought in regards to sport .. and never will.. by the way it looks like England will be departing the Rugby WC , why because we are not good enough , which is OK by me .

So my dreams are turning into nightmares.

England going out in style.

It's the English biased media that puts us off not the English.

I've already said I happily support all the home countries in other sports, I'm hoping England pull it out the bag just now although it doesn't seem likely.

No bias there then.

Great first half from the Aussies, England no-where near them at the moment.

Greg Hook

So, now England are out who shall we support? Ireland or Wales?

Shockingly bad.
I'm not sure who the tournament favourites are now, I was New Zealand before it started but Australia will run them close.
Completely different league.

Scotland?

We haven't a chance of winning but we can still qualify for the 2nd round. I'll be cheering them all on.
