| I sat through it too. I know the ABs got some criticism for losing to France, I thought either of those sides would have beaten Argentina or England comfortably on that performance. I remember two occasions near the end of the first half; England had a break down the right wing, and it ended up with the loose forward kicking the ball aimlessly into touch. Then, a few minutes later, England initially had a five onto two, but ended up throwing the ball over the side-line. Defended well enough, but, we won't even bother about scoring tries, we'll knock over a few drop-goals, won't beat the best sides.

Not sure why the PC jibe was necessary.

| I must admit, I did just watch, and did enjoy, watching Wales pulverise the Aussies! Seemed to me Wales completely bossed the game in every department. Also gave me a chance to pop into the Aussie forum I post on to join in the fun! ![Laughing icon_lol.gif](images/smilies//icon_lol.gif) Comment from one Aussie fan was, "should have a 'Benny Hill' soundtrack".

Should see the end of Eddie Jones, he was openly stating that there were NRL stars that should be signed for RU.

| Even that doesn't always work. I don't think RTS pulled up any trees in RU, and he's back at the NZ Warriors next season.

Yeah, the guy is a bit of a prick but he’s a winner (has been anyway) and he speaks very highly of Rugby League and the NRL. They’ve signed Suaalii from the Roosters to a big money deal but there is talk he might pull out because of the state of Ozzie Rugby Union. Surprised they can get talent from the NRL, the NRL is paying big money now and seems much more popular in Australia than Union, the NZ lads will always have the draw of the All Blacks and our lads will always have the draw of the money playing Union for England.
