To England

A tense game. It could have gone either way, but it would have ben cruel indeed had it gone against us. Well done the Aussies for a brilliant rise to the challenge. But in the end we came through with a well deserved win.

Feeling very emotional, what a result. Well done England, the World Champions. One of the best days of my life.

Absolutely! There were a few leaps in the air in this house. I felt like England won it twice. Not entirely true but thankfully it did go the right way in the end. It was a deserved win. Specially with that Try. Well done England.

Great game! Extra time just like the football in 66.
When I played (in the backs) we would't have passed to a second row forward a few yards from the line. Thank God Kay's error didn't count in the end.
I hope they receive a tremendous reception on their return on Monday. They should tour the Capital in an open top bus.

Well done England!

Probably the only rugby game I have ever really enjoyed watching, and that not only because I don't now have to hang my head in shame when I visit those people over the other side of the Tasman.

Was a real cliffhanger, and hard fought. When one looks at the statistics for the game, the best team won for sure.

Excellent match played by both sides. Well deserved win for England and the team showed that they could rise to the big occassion.
