Despite Owens stopping us surrounding them. It was a glorious victory for the eventual World Champions.

You are not allowed in the opponents half was a rule bought in after a samoan tongan game and is why NZ set up back behind their own 40 metre mark

Hope it's South Africa.

To beat the big 3 Southern Hemisphere sides to win the trophy is what it's all about.



True. The Sheep-shaggers personally hate us so they are going to have that going for them but the Half-Whites are the slightly stronger team but are not that personally against us. It will be something for the record books, the first team to beat all the Southern Hemisphere teams to be the World Champions

You may have played your final, this is a good south African team and they will be a tougher forward pack than the NZ geriatrics

Which is a load of nonsense. If they want to do the ballet dance, let them but you have to let other teams be free to respond in any way they wish. That includes getting close to them. Cockerill did it back in the day, why not let the players of today do it?

You want to pray the ref is on South Africa's side if you meet Wales in the final they will destroy England. :arse fan: :1990_dancing.gif:

You win some you lose some. Congrats to South Africa, looks like they will just have to turn up the heat otherwise South Africa will be world champions then.

Good stuff from England really enjoyed that game. Didn't look like NZ played their best, but England were pretty thorough. Going to be a tough final, they'll probably have to play even better. Rooting for you English folks!
