England v Australia Again!

It's anthem time, so a quick prediction. A tight forwards game which England will win by the odd try; 18-12.

Well, it finished up 26-16 and, though it was a fairly tight game, it's fair to say that the English tight 5 were utterly dominant; Aussie rugby fans will not have enjoyed watching their pack get pulverised.

I do worry about England's inability to turn posession and territory into points though, and the All Blacks are coming next week..

Yep,a pretty good weekend all round for England.

The rugby was a nice win. Both teams rebuilding,Australia look to have a lot more to do. Englands forwards were magnificent. Steve did point out though,worrying not to turn so much possession into points. Even more worrying was All Blacks 2nd team thrashing a respectable Irish side. I think England will have their work cut out to get much out of next Saturdays game.

On to the football, at last an entertaining game from England. Argentina are a very good side,ranked 2nd in the world,and we beat them
Great performances from Gerrard, Robinson and Rooney. Sven will be pleased At least his substitutions made sense in this game.

Finally,Eng v Pakistan and its going our way surprisingly. Another century from Trescothick and hopefully a win in the first test. Plenty of time for a collapse yet so............... we will see.

When England win, we don't mind being classed as English. When England lose , YOU lot are fcuking useless.

By the way, Wales handed out a massive drubbing against Fiji (11-10)

After the way they saw off Ireland with their 2nd team I have to agree Jonny.

But we English live in hope

It will be big trouble for the Aussies if they lose to Ireland, Jones and Gregan for the chop I reckon, but they will be hungry as well so I take Australia to win. If their backs can get into the game they might run a score up as well, Oz by at least 20 points.

I hope George Gregan doesn't catch too much flak, he's been awesome over the years. How quick we are to ditch our heroes.

I guess you can see that changes need to be made, I just hope the press don't turn on Gregan, he's been a great player for a long while.
