rimfire4969 Posted June 18, 2016 Report Share Posted June 18, 2016 England beat Australia 23-7 in the second test in Melbourne this morning this means England win the three-match series 2-0. The victory at the Melbourne Rectangular Stadium has given England their first series win on Australian soil ever. Incredible defence by England and they took their chances well and some fantastic performances I am completely chuffed to bits, only thing that will make it even better will be a another win next weekend and a whitewash.

CaptainBeaky Posted June 18, 2016 Report Share Posted June 18, 2016 Was following this on the text updates on a combination of BBC Sport, Telegraph Sport and (would you believe it) Wales on line. Very tense! Excellent job by the team - now on to Sydney Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vole Posted June 18, 2016 Report Share Posted June 18, 2016 Made my day . Had 5 hours to kill while my girl on a uni open day . Just happened to have my superb Roberts am/lw pocket radio as I walked my dog around the campus . Sounded a tough game . The Aussies never give up .

JDog Posted June 18, 2016 Report Share Posted June 18, 2016 Possibly the best game of rugby I have seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fredwalton Posted June 18, 2016 Report Share Posted June 18, 2016 Absolutely loved watching it this morning. Made up for the awful World Cup!!!! England ranked 2nd in the world. Also so great to see Aussie and England fans sat together shaking hands not beating the **** out of each other like those thugs in France at the euros!!!!!

chrisjpainter Posted June 18, 2016 Report Share Posted June 18, 2016 Farrell's try actually prompted a full on knee slide into the 'Platoon' position! Totally worth the carpet burns to both knees Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitebridges Posted June 18, 2016 Report Share Posted June 18, 2016 So many great individual performances. Eddie has done a superb job. With this and the Queen getting a winner at Ascot today it's been a day to remember. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitebridges Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 Farrell was superb. Kicked 23 out of 26 for the three tests. The 2nd and 3rd tests will go down in history. We look forward to doing more and more business with our brethren in Australia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
