Awful sport, but a fantastic achievement for our nation of 53 million to beat one of 22m.

Fantastic achievement indeed. Before anyone belittles it, just check how often Australia has lost the first three home games of their international season.

 

Remarkable effort. Eddie Jones has added the steel.

[Traf]

The Aussie Eddie Jones?

[Matt Lofthouse]

0-3 splendid.

The Aussie Eddie Jones?

 

 

Of course. If you care to read back,  I proffered the opinion that this was what England Rugby needed - a junkyard dog mentality. Jones brings it. Win at all costs.

Aye, I Thought the second Test win was a real Aussie style performance; withstand serious pressure and take the opportunity when it comes.

[Casino]

great wins

 

minor irritation was the rl style defence in the 3rd test

 

need to be better than that

[bolty58]

Very encouraging win against the Boks. That's a 10 year streak ended.

 

Ben Youngs was on fire. Bring on the 6 Nations.

[leigh white]

Bring on the proper game tomorrow.

The scoreline flattered the springboks, how that wasn't a forward pass leading to their 1st try I'll never know.

 

Great result though.

Not a big rugby fan to be fair but this Eddie Jones seems to know what he's doing.  Always good to see any England team do well

Great result though.

Forward passes are allowed in union on the grounds that any kind of pass is a rarity. Only if they want a breather for a 5 minute scrum will they call it back.

[bolty58]

Amazing how the RL lads are attracted like a moth to a flame to RU threads.

 

Inferiority complex?

I'm watching England RL now at West Hams ground....it's utter shit

[Tonge moor green jacket]

Is everyone in the crowd twatting each other?

Sadly not, it might liven things up if they were though

Think I'll stick with F1. Might as well make use of my now TV day pass.

£7.00 is decent for a day.

Obviously not the same game I'm watching!

He wouldn't know a good shit from a bad one. Good arm wrestle. Boltys lot have thrown a lot our way but our d has been good.

[Maggie Tate]

And no Tarquin has shoed it three furlongs into the stand yet to avoid getting tackled by the bigger boys. And I can't help but notice the absence of any five minute scrums.

[Sweep]

Obviously not the same game I'm watching!

Maybe not....to be fair its perked up a bit.

 

I'm cold now though. And this ground is shit and sadly lacking any sort of atmosphere

[Smiffs]

We're still 10 years behind boltys lot. They're a fucking machine.

[leigh white]

Ah well, still off to Liverpool on the lash and watch the Antipodean final and rooting for the Kiwi's next Sunday.
