I must admit I haven’t watched the final yet due to work commitments. After the NZ vs ENG semi, I hoped ENG would go on to win the Cup, but that was changed during the week by an Eddie Jones press conference where his arrogance and put down of Warren Gatland (enjoy the third-fourth playoff) changed my opinion. I’m glad SA beat them (comprehensively it would appear) and the way the English players refused to wear their silver medals, as if someone was trying to hang a turd around their necks, just reinforced that.
Sports Journalist Stephen Jones loves to poke sticks at the arrogance of the All Blacks, but the true colours of the English players have been exposed. I would like to think that Anton Lienert-Brown’s partial down-trou in the last play of Friday’s game was a special signal to the likes of Stephen Jones.
I love sport. Ideally id prefer my Team/player to succeed but if the other is great, I embrace that. I dont do pre determined bias or media
The people that embraced whatever results are, are the coaches, "most" of the players. And the knowledge of many spectators. ENG was great. They lost. Now we diss them? Congrats to RSA, and ENG and NZ
