    Not now. The saffers look favourites, although I think they'll find England a vastly different proposition to the 36-0 team.

      Not sure I can listen to another commentary like that for the final

        Praise where it's due I think.
        The England team have shown spirit and determination well beyond what anybody outside the team expected.
        They have got their heads down and put in a superb performance.
        Considering their form since the last world cup and in the first game against SA I do not think anybody expected them to get past (at best) the quarter finals.

        It may not be pretty, but this is the world cup and winning is everything.

        Well done to England.

        Just one more game guys, just one more.
        I am not qualified to give the above advice!

        Step back, have a think and adjust my own own attitude from time to time

          England

          My divided loyalties aside, based on performance and admiration for determination(After all that is what rugby is about), I will have to admit I am hoping for England to win. They deserve it.

              Or did Tone offer them seats in the House of Lords to stop them making fun of him?

                I think they got fed up with it once Major took over. Not nearly as much material to work with, and what there was showed signs of strain on the creative side. They heyday was definately the last year of Thatcher.

                    Didn't they do a one off special last year or something? Missed it, though.

                      I thought that you'd have known that off the top of your head.

                      Yes, then - I do have it at home.

                      There's something to be proud about.
