SA supporters agree that they have rarely seen the All Black's demolished like England did to them in the semis. We were just happy that you guys could not repeat the performance in the final 😁😁. And what an awesome final it was.

Watching that last one, I will never forget how nervous I was during that RWC final as an England fan. I had grown up with England badly underperforming in all our major sports way beyond the point where it was a joke. We were just rubbish at everything. Then, slowly over five or six years, I watched closely as we assembled a rugby team which not only had some decent players, but had several genuinely world class match winners AND a talismanic captain AND an unbelievably driven coach. England got used to winning, often hammered the celtic nations, set an unprecedented winning streak against France and South Africa and beat NZ and Australia in their own backyards in the same week. Suddenly, as an English sports fan I was in completely unchartered territory and waaaay outside my comfort zone. My team were favourites to win RWC 2003, it was ours to lose we were told. The road to the final was not without a few dramas but England were worthy finalists. The final itself for me was torture. I paced up and down our living room, chain smoking for the entire match. I was bleary eyed and on edge (it was a 9am kickoff for the UK) and wracked with nerves to the point of feeling physically sick. I almost, ALMOST couldn't watch the match at all. In extra time I came close to switching off the TV altogether and just going out for a walk somewhere. But I didn't. I was still there when Jonny's drop goal went over and then Mike Tindall booted the ball into the stand to bring an end to it all. I remember, with absolutely clarity, just collapsing into an armchair and saying 'Thank f**k for that!" There were medals and a trophy and interviews and bus tours and news reports afterwards but I knew that few hours were the peak of my sport watching life and that nothing in sport from that point on would mean as much.

Yes, and he was always a scrum half until his talent demanded his inclusion in the Wigan 1st team. He couldn't displace Shaun Edwards, obviously, so they put him on the wing. I think he should have gone back to scrum half as soon as Edwards moved on. He'd have been even better there and might have stayed in League in a 7 shirt. Couldn't see him at scrum half in union, could you? At least he's back with us now - a Hunslet lad was bound to be - contributing a great deal to the game in various ways since his retirement.

Always remember Robinson going up against loti for the first 2003 final try 😂 6'5 going up against 5'8 in the air. Never had a chance bless him. Had the final laugh so all good.

Still the only England player to score a try in a World cup final. Would love to have seen Jason go to 1st receiver more often for set piece moves for England I can only think of 3 times he did so and he scored on 2 of those occasions!

@@2manycarsinbasel155 England rugby union did not see the best of Jason Robinson!!. I'm sure if there wasn't a certain Jonny Wilkinson playing at the same time we might have seen Sir Clive start Jason at 10 a few times. Jason was the sort of player who could become world class whichever position he played on the pitch (as a back that is!!).

The impact he had on England when he crossed over to union was unbelievable. Such a once in a generation talent. Even when we would be getting turned over against the Australians in league games, he'd still manage to get tries. One on one he's up there with the best.
