Rugby World Cup - Go Australia

OK, now I definitely commented on this when you first posted it. It must be floating somewhere in space?

I watched and enjoyed the game. At 10:00 pm, straight after the final whistle, I came in to my blog to post the result. Now I see we will be playing England in the final.

Couldn't believe the difference in the weather for the two games. Cold, stormy and a gale last night. Hot and dry the evening before. It reached 36 at my house on Saturday, a few minutes from the Stadium, although it was cooler by night.

Wonder what next Saturday will bring?
Shalom,

It will bring the most boring game of rugby, EVER! Jonny Wilkinson will win but wont score a try.

The Wallabies simply took the field with a tsunami of motivation behind them and were unstoppable. For two whole weeks their backs had been whipped raw by the scorn and criticism of their own people. They had lost the Bledisloe Cup to New Zealand earlier in the season, and had under-performed in the Tri-Nations. Nobody gave them a hope in hell of winning this semi-final.

The perfect spot to be in, from Eddie Jones' perspective. Out from the corner they came, with nothing to lose and everything to win. Add in that usual Australian technique and teamwork and they played like they had seventeen men on the field last night.
