Brilliant stuff by England to beat NZ.
Out of left field.
And they scored tries.......wow!

Very impressive. 2 tries scored by foreigners, 1 try by an ex RL player and all the goals kicked by the son of a RL legend. ENGLISH RU is looking healthy.

They did score tries which was an improvement but the All Blacks scored just as many. It was, as usual, decided by who had the best penalty goal kicker.

How bitter do you guys get? Great game, astonishing result. Something else, if England RL beat the Australians, no one would even notice

And by the way the 'RU legend' was nowhere near good enough for union

Who's bitter. RU is an inferior game that cannot usually achieve a result without a multitude of penalty kicks influencing the game as was the case here. Given the paucity of tries from England, it really is astonishing that they should score three, one from a RL winger and one from a centre whose brother played for Halifax and Samoa, so I wonder of any RL influence was involved, not that he's English anyway.

Watch out for the papers tomorrow, he'll probably be pictured diving into the Thames from some ferry or other or throwing somone around in a bar whilst ksissing a floosie.

You are. Union is not an inferior game, you just do not like it. By bitter, I mean that whenever there is a great game of league, union people do not leap onto boards to post how poor it was. Not sure why you feel you have to

Yet he was capped 8 times by England RU

Union is an inferior game by a long way. If Union people saw a great game of League they'd love it instead of the garbage that they watch instead.

That was in the days when if a halibut had played league the RFU would cap it. Not nearly as much crossover now, and those that do take a lot more time to succeed.

I have seen a fair bit of league, but find it all a bit samey. I am not going to sart claiming league is inferior, but then I don't have a huge chip sitting on my shoulder.

What's bitter about my statement? Is there anything in it that is untrue? 2 tries scored by foreigners; Brad Barrit, South African, moved to England in 2008 aged 22. Manu Tuilagi, born Samoa, moved to England initially illegally aged 13, 5 brothers all played for Samoa. Chris Ashton, former Wigan RL and England RL player. Moved to Union aged 20. Owen Farrell's father was a Rugby League legend; Debuted age just 17, GB debut aged 18, youngest ever GB captain at 21. Won every honour in the game including Golden boot.

All sounds about right to me. As I said, very impressive, make of that what you will.

All true, but why try to pick holes in what was a great result and a great game. If you don't like union, don't watch it
