    That's funny Infinitum.

    Now...not to sound...out grammarically or anything...but what's up with the "England have done it" thing?
    I would have figured countries were in the singular...not plural....you know...

    England has done it.
    the USA has done it
    Australia has done it.
    Mexico has done it.

    (although, preferably, I think "England did it" would work better)

    There was also the <!--QuoteBegin--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->esuana, australia are 'supposedly' the best.<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd--> in Thursday-'s post (which could easily be a typo missing an n...but whatever).

    Johnny are quite definatly the pwn. <!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    Maybe it's just a conicidence 3 people typed stuff wrong in a row? Or maybe all the UKers are drunk? Or is it grammarically different outside the US? [/end grammar naziism]

    oh yea, yay England! (I guess)

    They most likely are drunk.

    If you were Sherlock Holmes, you would have told me my exact address, my age, my car registration and what coloured underwear I'm wearing.

    Dr Watson always makes vague deductions!

    YOU SHALL NEVER BE SHERLOCK HOLMES!

    Silly Brit grammar - it should be 'England <b>has</b> done it'. It's a single country, not plural. I might allow it if you had said UK, but you have again failed.

    Well, I can understand why it's making a comeback. There's nothing like sitting in the stands watching a bunch of guys beat the **** out of each other below you. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    (sorry for the late reply)
    Great game. I have to say that England really deserved their win, although I wished to hell that it wasn't so. Australia were dominant in the first 15 minutes (that first try was win), but after that England picked up the pace and were all over us like a rash. They really dominated in so many areas (possession, lineouts, scrums) - we just barely held on. Such a nailbiting overtime, and great timing for them to score in the last 15 seconds or so.

    I'd just like to see how they'd play without Johnny..
