Said it before the Tournament, but England will win this World Cup no problem. Better than anyone else.

Utilised in game experience to resist Australia’s best moments and stepped up at key times of the game to hurt them and then force them to open up for more risk thereafter. Like Real Madrid’s knockout form in UCL finals a few years ago. Clinical performance.

How is the TMO not calling that as a forward pass?

What’s that TMO guy on? Happy with it when he’s a yard ahead of the player passing the ball

For me, yeah. They'll obviously give them a better game than Australia cause they're not very good. But yeah, i'll go with England. They're just too good. Best team in the tournament gong in, and i haven't seen anything to change my mind.

A comment on Theroar made me think about Jones, is there a chance for him to manage Australia again?

That was a lesson on how to play rugby without the ball.

Australia's decision making was awful the entire game ,England just let them feck themselves up for the most part

It was a bit like a football high press at times. Trap them near their own line and pressure them as they try and play out.
