Ahh, Wikipedia confirms this: "The term pommy or pommie is commonly used by speakers of Australian English, New Zealand English, South African English and Afrikaans." Rugby starts in 75 minutes! | ||

England unfortunately waited untill the last 10mins to score 6 cheap points, forcing a penalty is not hard to do. Drop kicks should = 2 points imo... If South Africa go through england will hopefully be raped... I pray... You should pray 2. | ||

The game you are looking for is Rugby League England France game was better because it was competitive for more than 40 minutes, this one has been over for a long time | ||

I think it was a fairly 50/50 call, looked liked a knock but I wouldn't bet on it. Game wasn't that good, tons of mistakes by both teams, and SA just got killed in the scrums. South Africa also kicked badly, we really should have targeted the touch, and tried to win the line-out balls. That said, Habana was amazing though- you've just got to love him! I really hope we take Eng in the finals... | ||

I am waiting for this final, and I have to say Eng is definately the underdog. | ||

Well he's fine with it for the moment, but that's not my favourite type of play. I feel a bit sorry for Argentina, they lost to 2 interceptions and 2 well played turn over. But SA wes clearly the better team, Argies were getting tired. I still hope Hernandez gets the player of the year award  Funny final, after the 36-0 England had to suffer in group... SA will probably get their first legit WC win | ||

Highways - finally someone who agrees with me xD. After that game I watched the highlights of St. Helens vs Leeds ... and I can personally say that that game was a LOT more intresting than the FR/Eng game... South Africa should by all means walk over england ... England will be dominated in every domain except drop goals (even field position SA have the "golden boy" - guy with blond semi long hair who kicks brilliantly I forget his name :S) Matfield and habanah and possibly the best tight end prop to ever play :D. I hope it will be an open game... If england manages to depict the speed of the game it will suck ... if the south african backs open stuff up it will be brilliant... 3rd place match? Imo france will throw everything in this match... they just lost their place in the finals ffs! Last time around they lost to Argentina - a game they'll never forget... hopefully chabal wont be double teamed like in the england game and we can see some nice hits Chabal for president~~ | ||

Rugby League is a far superior game, but this is still interesting because it's a World Cup afterall and Union is a more international game than League. That and nobody is close to touching us in League so it's kinda boring.  | ||
