Yep. England played really well and the AB's didnt. Now we know how the poms can really play. Richie has a long time too stew about this. 'sigh' work's gonna suck tomorrow............

Looking for any possible positive from Australia's perspective - the All Blacks will be coming off a loss for the next 6 months
Which would be great if they played the Lions before us to soften them up a bit!
As it is, they'll probably still be cranky when they get a shot at us next year.

As much as it pleases me to see that the All Blacks aren't invincible, god I wish it wasn't the Poms that beat them. Worst thing about the whole thing was that Ashton scored with his trademark vanity and showmanship.
Only two teams: The Men in Gold and ABE.

^^^ A performance like that makes you dislike The Darkness even more. ABE.

I'd take an AB loss any day over an England win!

I hope he does this at the next World Cup in a important game and knocks the ball on, he would become the most hated man in England and there is no room in Rugby for this type of thing.revised entry for Macquarie Dictionary

Not much worse than staying up late to watch a poor quality stream of a terrible AB performance. lol
England played well, got there noses out ahead and built on the confidence. Thought once it came back to 15-14 we were all good but then Conrad made an absolute rookie error and the Poms were back on top. Then Carter missed Tuilagi and it was all over after that. Disappointing stuff from two normally reliable players. Have to say, spewing your guts out from both ends on a Wednesday is not ideal preparation despite what management and McCaw said prior. Also George Clancy's refereeing of the ruck was 'different', AB's didn't do their trademark adapt. No excuses, AB's were poor and England played well. Sad way to end a terrific year. Perhaps the wake up call they needed.
Can't wait for S15.

Lol ACR, you only watched a poor quality stream, I signed up to Setanta for 2 months to watch it. But credit where credit is due, geez Poms played bloody well, apparently Richie reckons after game he can't remember ABs getting beaten up at breakdown like that. I actually not to sad, like I said Poms played bloody well, scored tries to win test, and actually will probably make it more exciting in next years tests, it gets a smidgeon boring when they win too much, and I mean that seriously ,you have to be nervous to really enjoy tests. Also proved a point I think that you have a young team that plays well, and starts to believe what they are doing, they bloody hard to beat.
