Color me ignorant then. I\'ve never seen any talk about the WC anywhere but here.

Now all we need is for the England soccer team to win Euro2004 and then the World Cup.

After seeing the match, it makes me wonder how different the result would have been had Wilkinson been injured before the match..

Or if Australia had a decent goal-kicker..



Excellent game of Rugby indeed.  Couldn\'t have asked for a better final.

I would just like to congratulate all you poms:D   Your team played excellent on Saturday.  

Our Springbok team is so pathetic at the moment... In Europe the soccer (or football as you guys call it) is under enormous pressure to win in whatever they do as the media\'s eyes are on them at all times... In SA it is like that for our rugby players.  There is currently so many allegations taking place that people actually forget that it is just a sport.

Anyway, well done again.  I supported England since SA was out of contention, as I did not want the Wallabies to win it for the third time.

woooooo hooo, champs!!!
