Yip, England played well, did what they had to do but the Aussies were very poor today, in fact even we might have beaten them.

game over after 6 mins :wink:
the all blacks are an absolute joy to watch
the harlem globetrotters of Rugby
I didn't get up early enough to see England V Australia. Great win for England.
So far New Zealand have been fautless; Ireland just can't get hold of the ball.
As a side issue, do Scotland have any top flight referees? I cant think of any, in fact I can't even think of any Scottish refs at Pro fourteen level.
All Blacks are forcing errors from Ireland via constant pressure. The Irish aren't given a moment on the ball.
HT - NZ 22 - 0 Ireland
NZ doing what you do better than any other sports team in the world. Execute the basics perfectly, put pressure on the opposition, force errors, score off those errors, work harder than the others. They are superb. Still think England might beat them though
Teaching the so called world number ones a lesson.
Trust their one performance to be against us in the opening match.
This could become a very long second half for Ireland.
England vs New Zealand will be a cracker.
Thank goodness we are not playing the all blacks here.
that was shocking missing touch from the penalty
Awesome! Ireland have been just about as bad as Scotland. Poor decision making, poor execution, no idea how to defend against or attack NZ
NZ have been awesome today, they are playing a different sport to Ireland today.
Good performance from England earlier, Australia have talent but they just arent pulling it together as a team presently.
Should be a great Semi final between England and NZ but you would have to make the All Blacks favourites.
Pre tournament I put my fiver on South Africa to win it and Im still quietly confident despite a good performance from England and a mega display from NZ today.
three barrett's on the field, all blacks are as safe as houses
still time for another two tries
yet another kick fails to find touch, ouch
Oh dear, Ireland have lost the plot. It was easier to ground the try than miss it.
game on
Over this time, and beneath the posts. Game on :greengrin
superb support play from the all blacks
i feel i should be paying ITV for the privilege of watching this
