England totally bottled it.They should have been 4 tries down at half time and we'd be looking at a similiar/worse final scoreline to 2004.
I say bottled because they were making basic errors throughout the game. As soon as they got within 30 metres of the aussie try line it was complete panic stations with headless chicken running, bizzare wild passes and no set plays.
It's a step back from the final of 2009 where they actually should have been 12-0 up inside 20 minutes and gave it a real good crack, with a younger team.
Probably not worth a thread for itself. A few years ago as Francis Cummins was nearing the end of his Leeds career I posted an article from when he was just breaking through which went down well on here. Stumbled across this the other day while looking through my Open Rugby collection. May 1997...

Very interesting to read that article, particularly to see the team line-up at the end, most of whom have done very little at the top level of the game...

I noticed the number 17 at OT this year. He was sat behind Brian and Jimmy when they were hugging to celebrate our victory. He's normally much harder to spot.

What are you defining as 'top level of the game' in this instance?

The river really has gone dry for you hasn't it? Utter desperation
