Yes, ok Jonny was kicking shite as well but at least he nailed the penalties - if Australia had managed their kicks we couldn't have got the result we did based on our overall performance on the day.
The Aussies scored as many penalties as us.

Even the Aussie press have apologised for calling us boring.

Conditions & Tension will always make for an error ridden final.

True. Both teams played poorly. England made mistakes at both ends whereas Australia only seemed to make theirs in the England 22 (LUCKILY FOR US!)

Yeah and we created cricket too but we're still shite at both. Just cos we invented them doesn't mean we are any good at them.

The Welsh backline And the forwards for that matter! They didn't do that well though

France were great until the England match. Not exactly the best conditions for Frances rugby! New Zealand were more dissapointing than England. They were just crap!!

I didn't say they were boring - I said they CAN play better rugby but didn't and because Australia didn't play better when it counted, we came away with the trophy.

No. Wales played good games against New-Zealand and England, France against Fidji and Ireland. Some "small" teams were nice surprises too.
