True.
Poms also won U20 Six Nations, beating France 45-31 in Lyon….

Ireland hold firm to clinch Six Nations, Gatland offers to quit as Wales hit 'rock bottom', France win thriller over England

The Poms, eh?
what a side!

Bazball 1-0 in India! Hartley takes seven on debut as England produce 'greatest triumph' under Stokes in epic comeback

Look.
I’m not going to pontificate, but Pope was infallible.
I certainly give him my blessing to continue playing like that….

I wonder how a rugby union rankings list would look.
Would there be scope for Wallaby bashing.
Say what you like about England rugby problems, but you can’t deny that the Poms have grit, guts, mongrel, in spades…

Cricket World Cup Power Rankings: England are rubbish and so are Pakistan - but here come the Aussies

Excellent World Cup?
Did the Socceroos win the World Cup?
I must have been out of town when that happened.

So near, so far for Socceroos as brave Australia made to pay for missed chances by Watkins and England

Did I get the result wrong?
Did the Socceroos win?
Was it Upton Park all over again?

Alone then!
England carry British Isles banner into latter stages of RWC, following bottling and choking of Irish , Scorch and Welsh…
It was ever thus!

I’m worried about Australian sport.
The Baggy Greens were eviscerated by SA in ODI WC, the Wallabies were crushed by Wales in RWC, and the Socceroos were beaten by a second string England team playing poorly.
To paraphrase a chant heard in East London in 2003″ ‘Does Australia suck at everything’?

Both Baggy Greens and Wallabies set to fail?

Australia’s ageing cricket team about to fall off a cliff even if they can rebound from opening World Cup failure

Angus Fontaine reckons that Wallabies have just shown that they are potential RWC 23 winners…

Wallabies' RWC hopes still alive after wild win over Portugal - but it will take a miracle to avoid historic first flop

An extra whinger?
Crumbs! Australia have got quite a few of those already!

Wallabies' RWC hopes still alive after wild win over Portugal - but it will take a miracle to avoid historic first flop

I thought both sets of players looked sheepish walking off at end of game…

'F--- mate, what didn't go wrong?' 'Raw, devastated' Wallabies 'got bashed' - players react, Foley weighs in, after disaster

Oh look!
Wobblies concede 15 points to Georgia!
Just as well they weren’t playing Mississippi, Louisiana, Kentucky, or either of the Carolinas, eh?
What do you blokes reckon?

'Doing their thing, playing free:' Wallabies smash Georgia to kick-start RWC campaign in style

I seem to remember that AB set a precedent for boorish behaviour in Ashes series in 80s didn’t he?

Flem's Verdict: Stokes’ spirit of cricket goes out the window over catch while ICC needs to sort out ludicrous ball-swap farce

Ascendancy was wrenched from them by England

Every player rated from the fifth Ashes Test: Spinner shines, Davey defies doubters, but is Cummins cooked?

um…err..twenty two years.
Twenty two years…

It cannot be denied that England would have won series had not either intervened at Old Trafford.
They have been the dominant team in the last three test matches.

Nice one Neil.
You should have been promoted from Rookie status by now.

Twenty two years unbeaten in home Ashes series!
England had the better of last three tests and would have won series if not for Old Trafford rain…

Very drôle…

UK View: 'Cricket equivalent of parking the bus' - Poms hail 'death or glory' gamble, condemn 'un-Australian' tourists

How many of those 700 runs will Warner & Labushagne, the South African number three, contribute?

I don’t think that Australia has punched above its weight in sport for sometime.

What is Australia's most popular sport?

No to Travis!
We don’t want to dilute the quality of this special English team.

BazBall strikes again: Waugh says bring on the Ashes as England pull off stunning win over Pakistan

Just imagine if Wales had been playing against Texas or Louisiana, or even the whole of the USA!

Northern View: Smith will regret not completing All Blacks' 'choke', Sexton truth exposed, time to silence Rassie

Actually, England have not lost to All Blacks since 2018
