England have just beaten Australia in the Rugby World Cup. JUST! 12 -10, and again it was nearly 1/2 hour before we got the lead initially. We are through to the semi-final next Saturday against either France or New Zealand (that will be an incredibly tough match!). It wasn't as good a game as the one against Fiji, but still heart-stopping at times. Not that I want to take anything away from England, but Australia did appear to be rattled from very early on, resorting almost to fighting (possibly provoked by England but that wasn't in evidence).
It is a shame that Australia had to go out, as it is my spiritual home as I've probably said before, and the place, more than anywhere, that I would like to call home.
As a goodbye to Australia, here are my hotties:Stirling Mortlock;Sam Cordingley;Scott Staniforth;Sean Hardman; Stephen Hoiles;Stephen Moore;Al Baxter;Drew Mitchell;Julian Huxley;Mark Chisholm;
Matt Giteau;
Well done boys, you did your country proud.
