Not to be a bad loser (ok, so I'm still heartbroken - but the NZ loss did help ease the pain), but I still feel Australia defeated themselves rather than lost to a better team. And don't get me started about Johnny Wilkinson - I rekkon a recruiter from the AFL should think about getting him to switch codes.

.

the press here reported that before the England-Australia game, someone from the Australian team looked at a picture of the England team, pointed to Jonny Wilkinson and said "is that all you've got".

Looks like it was enough.

I have the same feeling about France England friday...

I can see why you might but Tomas Castaignede (ex France international) has been one of the pundits on ITV and he reckoned that England deserved it on the day. And its no good being the better team on paper if you cannot produce the goods on the day.
