under 37.5pts market on Betfair is 1.87 > that looks good to me...

could be a blowout and england may get undone and fall apart, but if they keep the intensity they could make it so tight that nerves will take over on both sides and could be a 12-9 game either way perhaps..cant see both getting a lot

Must be congratulations to South Africa on their 2nd World Cup triumph. The English boys did us proud and the improvement has been amazing. I just hope that their progress doesn't mask the size of the task needed to rebuild this side for the next world cup.

Give the boys a big hand. they have been absolutely immense in the last 3 weeks.

I agree KanKeano South Africa deserve this world cup for me they have been the best team,England even reaching the final has impressed me so im not too dissapointed we lost.
I did have a fiver on England to win by 1-5 points so no real loss as won quite abit on the football today

South Africa were deserved winners, the best team throughout the tournament, so congrats to them.

England showed such heart and soul and desire to turn this WC around, but in the end it was one step too far, but they did the country proud.

Unfortunately its inevitable that the papers tomorrow will concentrate on the disallowed try, rather than how well the players did.

i think it would have been a different game if there wasn't an austrailian on TMO duty to be honest . regardless, the boys did the country proud . however despite that, it will not mask over the fact that the side needed to be rebuilt 3.75 years ago. the worst thing was that england could not construct try scoring opportunities (again), or if they could they had no one ready to run onto the ball to take them or break the boks line in open play. a world class side can't rely on kicking goals to edge games all the time. england had the field position on occasions in that final to go for a try, but instead went for a drop goal or looked clueless. as the scoreboard ticked over they had no answer, nothing to cut the lead or put the panic into the boks. on the other foot, the boks had the depth to score tries if necessary but in the end they didn't even need to go up a gear. we would be one hell of a side if we could use the power and tenacity of the work of the forwards as platforms to score tries. wilkinson is one top top player but i bet even he is sick of his hero status, 'wilko kicks to victory', rather than 'stunning tries destroy whoever'. it needs to be adressed sharpish.

while im at it i hope by 2011 the board cut the penalties and drop goals to 1 point each anyone else fed up of watching some of these matches and shouting 'go for the try, sod the 3 points'
