Australia v England- Rugby Union - 2nd Test- Melbourne

[pasty]

I love it when we beat Australia at anything.

Can't stand rugby myself, but bloody loved that match for that very reason. I have officially jumped on the band chariot.

23-7?

Easy

When I am asked if I am racist I say yes I am, I don't like Australians.

Not a great rugby fan per se but I love watching international rugby and this is a monumental game, they would give The All Blacks a scare.
But of course the Aussies won't except defeat because we have an Aussie coach.
Worst losers of any nation.

Hope this amazing series win gets the press it deserves. Due to the Euro's its almost forgotten

Defensive stats. Speechless.

That's the first time I have been pulled up by the police on here, something I find very frustrating, gutted.
But I demand a suspended sentence as the offender was the predictive text m'lud.
Please don't tell me there is another mistake in this post.

Listened to that on the radio in the car, it sounded very intense!

Well done England.

There are very few things better in sport than smashing Australia.

You have a light sentence. Your community service is to tell the national newspapers to put this on the front pages where it belongs. This series win is huge for English sport. Even non rugby folk should know how heavy an achievement it is.

Love it, Eddie Jones has grabbed this team of potential and turned them into the real deal.

Massive accomplishment. The abject home defeat to Australia in the World Cup only 9 months ago is a distant memory.

Bring on New Zealand.

That's not actually true. They don't like losing anything, but you should never mistake that for sour grapes. They are generally quick to acknowledge when they have faced superior opposition. On this occasion they have.

Fantastic win. Now for a 3-0 series win next week.

 

[Hampster Gull]

Bring on New Zealand.

Wales ran them close in the 1st Test last week.

England are definitely on the rise under Eddie Jones whilst the All Blacks lost a number of key players through retirement after WC '15.

New Zealand at Twickenham in November/December might just be there for the taking.

Sometimes, in any sport, there is a passage of play that is so remarkable that it will live in the memory for ever. Today we witnessed the most astonishing defensive display by an England rugby team. It was team spirit personified with every player fighting for the cause and never giving an inch. Astonishing, remarkable, unforgettable.

Having lived there for 8 years I can confirm that they are the worst losers in the world

I know what you mean. 14 June 2003, Wellington, we beat the All Black's despite having 2 men in the bin in the 2nd half. What happened months later is history.
