Swing low sweet chariot. Well done England.😃 Great game and I don't really understand it - looks brutal to me. Sorry daughter (not questioned her allegiance might not like the answer 😉) and your family but we've clobbered you twice this year 😂😂.

Fantastic performance! Totally outplayed the All Blacks from the word go, forcing them into handling errors and giving away penalties. Tactically superb and what a player that Maro Itoje is - now can we dream of a similar performance from Wales tomorrow?

?? Has there been a game somewhere ??
OK, OK, I was watching as well
Cracking good game, Superb performance by England, now I can do the preparations for the 'extra hour' tonight so I don't miss the second strings trying to avoid playing us in a little while !!

I am in total awe at that performance, you called it too J57👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻. I did play a small part in the win-everytime I’m convinced they’d win(& have said so) England have lost, this time I was convinced they’d lose but they won so, England-you are most welcome😊. That score line flatters the All Blacks tbh, they were out thought & outplayed by a superior team👍🏻

Yay 🏉🎉😀 we ended up watching the second half in a pub in town due to OH dental appointment. What an atmosphere! The place erupted as the final whistle went. There was one All Blacks supporter in the room, being very vocal whenever he could' which wasn’t very often! 😊

Rocky, I had the same belief in 2003 (the rest is history) and this side has similar beliefs and qualities but is ultimately, much more powerful. England did a real number on the Blacks today and showed the World how good we really are.
So, Rocky, to ensure the Webb Ellis trophy comes to Twickenham, you back whoever we play in the final and I'll just repeat again that it doesn't matter who we play - England will win! (Still prefer to play SA though!)
Wouldn't it be great for the northern hemisphere if Wales were victorious tomorrow?? 👍

Brave All Black supporter 😯
Actually had BBC sport on and caught the end of Tonga v The Lions, watched really because it was played in our daughters home town. Have to check out the weather, if nothing else😀. I believe I heard them say Kiwis had lost to Oz yesterday. 😟

I was in Swansea this week and asked the guy I was meeting, he is Welsh, how he thought the game would go with South Africa.
His opinion was that SA would probably be too strong but that he was looking forward most to the England game!
Not a rugby aficionado, just 6 Nations & Internationals really, but what a game and after the press seeming to write England off all week which, on my very limited knowledge, seemed a reasonable call.
Waiting for my British born, New Zealand raised and now back here mate to get in touch now for a chat!!

👍🏻, copy that😊

A very valid point Micky. When Japan beat SA, the rugby world sat up in somewhat disbelief. How could this happen? Was it a poor performance by SA or an incredible one by Japan? In my view, it was a mixture of both and the coach has to take some credit for the result. I think it's unquestionably the reason he got the job at England.
Roll on four years and, yes, I would agree there's a similarity to England's performance yesterday. Lawrence Dallaglio mentioned in commentary before the game, how entertaining and refreshing it had been to see the Japanese play rugby and how the rest of the world should take note.
Let's see how Wales get on this morning 🤞

Read, as I usually do, NZ paper online - daughter lives there, the Silver Ferns, ladies netball, got beaten by Oz.
Certainly a weekend sport that will go down in history for loss rather than prowess 😉😉

Sorry if you're a Welsh supporter but that was a poor performance and tactically inept too. Boks were not much better in a very one dimensional and boring game to watch. (apart from last 15 minutes)
If SA play like that next week England will put 30 points past them

I like your predictions, JR57👍🏻

Did the RC submariner enjoy the RWC OP😂😂😂. Wrong place I’m guessing👍🏻

Very sad Wales didn't overcome the Boks today to make it a northern hemisphere final. I too am disappointed, particularly for Alun Wyn Jones, who is probably the best player Wales have ever fielded. A man who always gives 110%, he is respected throughout the world.
