"Australia look to secure their place in the QFs"
Yes dear.
Pretty sure England are unlikely to score, and covert 5 tries in the final 90 seconds

Took control and ran out comfortable winners after a very poor opening half an hour.
Matthews should really be playing 6 and Feanati at 8. And Rowland is far too good a player to be left on the bench.

Just back from the game. Very weird one really. The England players did not look particularly happy at the end. I expect that they will get a rollicking. Some bad restarts still...
Great to see Dow, Breach and Kildunne in flight periodically.

That bloke is Dave - who used to post here, hyperbolic kiwi kid at the time.
A few of us helped his with his research to trace the history

I’ve still got the original spreadsheet somewhere!
Got to hand it to Dave. He’s been like a dog with a bone on this.

He really has - got an actual oak and brass shield made up.
The other 2 main things I remember him for are jumping off a bridge and being surprised that it hurt; and his first heartbreak.
From memory, "we" took the piss out of the 1st, and rallied around in support of the 2nd.
