Ireland are better than you mate, in Dublin you would have been lucky to escape with the price of your jersey. Keep dreaming mate and perhaps stop being a blind fan and wake up. the WC again for you.. is a distant dream and at this point distant memory.

by a SH team, you mean New Zealand

New Zealand are by miles the favourites and the only other 2 teams i could possibly see winning it at a longshot are SA and England

and possibly France, because as ever they might turn up and be bloody brilliant in a semi final or final

the aussies aren't better than England or Ireland

probably the worst Australian team for years

Wow, you talk about lacking grace and post something like that Ding.

They are still a very good team Mex, just NZ and SA stepped up last year big time. The only other team to beat Australia is England. They gave Ireland a good beating at home remember in the AI.

Because Aristo. you have none. There is always an excuse with you. I have the ride of conviction and alway praise every team where its due. Including if not more with England. But you, you see only negatives with the opposition. only what you might have done only that might have been. It's pathetic to be quite frank. and im tired of it and your BS. you are full of it. Don't use the word Grace. mate. it's not for you.

Vic. England are a brilliant team. Well coached, tho i question his substitution policy, excellent players, playing expansive rugby fast and hard. Definitely the SH teams will be taking notice.

Ok Ding, perhaps you should read what I posted again. The best team doesn't always win.

I also don't ever feel the need to through around insults on a internet forum.

BO'D has been quiet to be fair. Against italy he was good but not much else. Solid against all others. 3 missed tackles in the tournament. He's not in the frame for any awards. Brown is the player of the tournament. hands down.

Aristo. its always the same. you say what suits you to justify your position. I get that. But you have no appreciation for the opposition. you think you should always win. its graceless and ugly and while i sometimes feel the same way (Lienster) i never say it here. Somehow you always say it.

I won't mask what I think just for you. You seem to genuinely get upset over any opinion you don't agree with on any subject. England deserved to win every game this tournament, simple as that. Most people agree, deal with it.

Few flares being thrown around tonight.

To be fair I thought Ireland deserved to win tonight, and although it was close the kicks they missed were poor and should have won by a few more points.

I can't begrudge them the championship. England were always going to struggle to recover in the race after that opening defeat in Paris.
