[QUOTE="InsaneAsylum, post: 755459, member: 13203"] The whole world was hoping England lost on the weekend, surprisingly even kiwis who usually despise us. We were just hoping that the Wallabies won as everyone was telling us about how we were going to be the ones knocked out of the pool of death. To call us cocky is a bit game, we are constantly being told our scrum is weak, our lineout is a failure and our backs couldn't string more than a few phases together, instead we comprehensively outplay the hosts in their own backyard. I don't forget Rob Andrew in 1995, Wilkinson in 2003 and beating us in 2007 by 1 or 2 points after Mortlock missed that penalty, England have been reminding us about this for a long time, good to get one back. not to mention the English constantly calling us 'convicts'. There is zero 'convict' in my ancestry as with a lot of other Australians, we are a multicultural country, no longer derived from English blood so give it a rest. [/QUOTE]
