Absolute shocker - bet we don't see the same outcry from Down Under that we did earlier in the Tournament though.
Bet we will for that one though!

I shouted 'penalty' the moment I saw it - yes, Grosso looked for it but it was stupid in the extreme for Lucas Neill to commit himself like that - he gave the Italian all the chance he needed to go to ground and nine times out of ten, they're given.

I went over to watch the second half in work :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Asked someone "how are the criminals playing?"

He said, "which criminals?" :laugh:

Me too. But it wasn't.

Mind, makes up for the red card (which was about 0.04 of a second away from being a fair tackle, nowhere near a professional foul...)

In summary:

England are in the last 8 of the World Cup, hold the Ashes and hold the Rugby World Cup
Australia are not in the last 8 of the World Cup, do not hold the Ashes and do not hold the Rugby World Cup

All in all, England stands proudly above your vast island

Could all be true. But at the minute, we are in the World Cup, do hold the Ashes and do hold the RWC. So there :laugh:
