walking round town today... kids just carrying rugby balls about under their arms, half the stores having their staff in England shirts.... whatever happens now we should be proud of our boys.
Argentina played out of their skins last night - France were dissappointing, I felt like they were just out-fought (but the sin binning of Ibanez was a bit harsh... if you collapse down like that in a mall you should expect a bit of leather, no one trod on the guys head or anything...)
Les Bleu's still have the core of a good team, but I think they have done a lot despite their coach rather than because of him. They need to sort out the no 10 position. I still dont think they know who their no 10 is, and they dont know exactly what game they want to play.
Had to take your hats off to the Puma's for that defensive stand at the end of the first half though, absolutely massive. Also, they dealt with The Seabass just the right way. The hit on him was late and prolly did deserve a yellow... but thats what you need to do, get into and whallop hard.
