Oh you have hurt my feelings now betting on S.A.

Seriously though , South Africa are where the sensible money is.

Did you see the clip of Havana racing a cheetah over 100m? It must be on youtube somewhere. He had a 30m head start,but finished approx the same time. He has a 10 second 100m sprint and nobody we have is that quick.

I'm hoping England will outpower them to move the ball forward . Then use the predictable move of passing to Johnny Wilkinson, so he can get a drop goal out of it.

If i was playing for S.A I would go straight for Johnny and take him out of the game,fingers crossed they don't,lol.

South Africa 15 - 6 England....not the full story though.

Start of second half....9 - 3 to SA and England got a try, but the video judges decided not to give it even though his foot was up in the air and not touching the floor when he went out the side line. I am proud of England getting to the finals when everyone counted them out at the group stages (apart from me) but on the day it went wrong and Robinson got injured and our line outs were pretty poor, ah well can always reclaim it in 4yrs time.

Good effort lads.

Making the finals and almost holding our own with S.A wouldnt have seemed possible at the beginning of the tournament.

It will be interesting to see how all the teams have developed by the next world cup.
