I'm trying to think of better performance by an England team at any major tournament. Unbeleivable.

Don't wanna say I told you so, but..... 😉 The final I called before the tournament was England v South Africa, one game away. I hope we play Wales, that will be such a grudge match.

Fantastic performance despite the TMO!
What odds can you get on England being world champions at Cricket Rugby and Football at the same time?

Absolutely fantastic performance ! We just didn't allow NZ to dominate or play any of their normal game. The TMO did his best to stop us as well. Great performance from every player and Eddie got the tactics spot on ! Really wish I was out there for the final ! Come on England !!!!!!

Fantastic performance despite the TMO! What odds can you get on England being world champions at Cricket Rugby and Football at the same time? Now? About 1.80.

Fantastic, even Stoke can't ruin today now. I’m not so sure....if anyone can, Stoke can. They will have seen the Southampton collapse last night and be thinking.....we can do that too!

I don't see a weakness in our side. As I said before the tournament, in a neutral venue, we'll be hard to beat and that's been proven. I would DIE if we lost the final to Wales so I want South Africa

Absolutely superb
To a man, superb! All of them were pretty much perfect. Relentless in the tackle!

What a magnanimous post match interview by the NZ coach....that’s how to lose with dignity. Imagine the twats Wenger or Ferguson ever coming out with something like that?

Nothing wrong in losing with dignity...NZ know that they will be back. We seem to have lost this trait in many aspects of life

plenty of time to fuck it up Moral of he story is get the possible coach / manager not the one who fits the process but one who is prepared to change the model

Was listening to it on the wireless whilst making tapenade. Don’t know whether that qualifies me to be a rugby fan by being bourgeois Or disqualifies me through homosexuality!

I would DIE if we lost the final to Wales so I want South Africa I never had the impression the All Blacks were going to take over. England controlled every aspect of the game, right from the off.

Slightly odd how Nowell or Cokanisinga isn't on the bench considering May went into this game with an injury. Nowell didn't pass the fitness test in te week but he's definitely one who adds something. Think Slade has played wing before but big Joe might have been an option.

A fit Jack Nowell starts for me, hopefully he'll be available next week.
