Hi All

Me thinks we may have a chance. Would be great to stuff the AuZ gits on there own ground.
Taking time to get round to the Final, seems to be ages to even get to this stage??

Mike they just moved it from general very quickly

Also I is cheezing me off how long the World cup is taking. Why so Long ...........

Could be over in 4 weeks , seems to be taking a age

Ok i understand it takes time to recover from games but makes it more intresting if teams lose some players..

Steve

Auz did look good but it was a hard game

Hopefully todays game will take a little of the sting out of Auz.

Still think England have a good chance. but thought All Blacks would win the RahhR Rahhr cup

Fantastic solid performance.It was a scrappy game, but the right one for the conditions.
Watching Michelac choke today just makes you realise how important Wilko is.

Talking

A guy walks into a bar with a corgi under his arm. The dog is wearing an England rugby jersey and is festooned with England pom-poms. The bartender says, "Hey! No pets allowed! You'll have to leave." The guy begs him, "Look, I'm desperate! We're both big fans, the TV's broken at home, and this is the only place around where we can see the game." After securing a promise that the dog will behave, and warning him that he and the dog will be thrown out if there's any trouble, the bartender relents and allows them to stay in the bar and watch the game. The big game begins with the poms receiving the kickoff. They march down field, get stopped at the 22, and kick a penalty goal. Suddenly, the dog jumps up on the bar and begins walking up and down the bar giving high-fives
to everyone. The bartender says, "Wow, that is the most amazing thing I've ever seen! What does the dog do if they score a try?" The owner replies, "I don't know, I've only had him for three years."

A Visit to God

Johnson, Dallaglio and Wilkinson are standing before God at the throne of Heaven.

God looks at them and says "Before granting you a place at my side, I must first ask you what you believe in".
Addressing Johnson first, he asks "what do you believe?"

Johnson looks God in the eye and states passionately "I believe Rugby to be the food of life. Nothing else brings such unbridled joy to so many people, from the grim North to the lights of Twickenham. I have devoted my life to bringing this joy to as many people as I can".

God looks up and offers Johnno the seat to his left.

He then turns to Dallaglio and says "and you, Lawrence. What do you believe in?" Lol stands tall and proud, and says "I believe courage, honour and passion are the fundamentals to life and I have spent my whole playing career providing a living embodiment of these traits".

God is moved by the passion of the speech and offers Dallaglio the seat to his right.

Then finally he turns to Wilkinson.

"And you, Jonny? What about you?" "I believe ...." says Wilkinson "....
you're sitting in my seat".



Rugby Players

An Englishman, an Aussie and a South African are in a bar one night, having a beer. All of a sudden the South African downs his beer, throws his glass in the air, pulls out a gun and shoots the glass to pieces and says: "In Sath Efrika our glasses are so cheap that we don't need to drink from the same one twice."

The Aussie, obviously impressed by this , drinks his beer, throws his glass into the air, pulls out his gun and shoots the glass to pieces and says: "Well mate, in 'Straaaaailia we have so much sand to make the glasses that we don't need to drink out of the same glass twice either."

The Englishman, cool as a cucumber, picks up his beer and drinks it, throws his glass into the air, pulls out his gun, shoots the South African and the Australian and then says: "In London we have so many f***ing South Africans and Aussies that we don't need to drink with the same ones twice."

An Englishman wanted to become an Irishman, so he visited a doctor to find out how to go about this. "Well" said the doctor, "this is a very delicate operation and there is a lot that can go wrong. I will have to remove half your brain". "That's OK" said the Englishman. "I've always wanted to be Irish and I'm prepared to take the risk". The operation went ahead but the Englishman woke to find a look of horror on the face of the doctor. "I'm so terribly sorry!!" the doctor said. "Instead of removing half the brain, I've taken the whole brain out". The patient replied, "No worries, mate!!"

I can now amend this to...

England have won, they are the best and most consistent team.

Well done England.
