It's fine to have digs and banter, but to try and degrade England's fine and remarkable victory regards beating, and how they beat the 'All Blacks' is and was ridiculous. I, like most, realise just how powerful the 'All Blacks' are and have been since 2007. No need to sing their praises, it's all there to be seen.

 

Scotland lasted reach the Semi final in 1990 I believe. Have has some great teams since. Very good late 90's etc.

For Wales it was their first time. Never mind Gatty, Wales being close to England is as near as they may ever be to being a great side lol.

 

By the way, well done Josh Taylor. A fine and good win last Saturday.

England were outrageously brilliant. Definitely the best team in the world at the moment.

Jones has a record of the highest.

2003 Was in charge of Australia in the final when England won. 2007 Next was on coaching side when S. Africa beat England in the final. Like wise 2011 when New Zealand won. 2015. Took Japan the distance nigh... beating S. Africa and bring the best out and to the fore with quick, and exciting Rugby. Speed against the heavier opponents.

Japan have a good foundation now … obviously lack size, but …

So England's Rugby Board brought him in. Constantly replacing the older players for the younger ones and welding a good squad together.

I doubt he will stay after the W/C personally. I feel he will be looking at fresh pastures and challenges. Sadly!

 

Mind to be fair Warren Gatland, after 12 years he transformed the sporadic genius of the national team into a hard-nosed unit of consistent menace. Indeed a very professional outcome.
