And like grapes in the cricket.Saw the whole of the England vs Tonga semi-final.
I had no idea these tiny nations were so competetive.
England ground out three tries/conversions to lead 18-0 then got a penalty to make it 20-0.
And it's a good thing we scored that penalty because in the last 10 minutes Tonga ran riot, were all over us, and ran in three tries of their own, so it was that penalty-kick that saved us. We won 20-18.
Tonga were very very unlucky and were within inches of scoring two other tries, but stopped by the very stout England defence.
Australia will crush us like ants in the final.

I am totally the opposite. I think Union is far superior and find League far too one dimensional. A lot less intelligence needed in Rugby League I would say. Just seems a case of pick the ball up, run a couple of yards, get tackled, pick the ball up, run a couple of yards, get tackled. Every time they are tackled the game stops for a couple of seconds, so it doesn't have the same flow as Union. I find it quite dull at times. Kicking is so much more important in Union and so too lineouts and scrums.Rugby League is so much better than Rugby Union. All those scrums and line-outs drive me nuts.
You might be right, I haven't watched a Union game in years so my memory could be playing tricks.I am totally the opposite. I think Union is far superior and find League far too one dimensional.

It can still be really frustrating, but has much more flow about it.
Scrums need a complete rethink. The amount of times they reset in some games is ridiculous.You might be right, I haven't watched a Union game in years so my memory could be playing tricks.
But I still hate line-outs and scrums, especially scrums. I mean who would even invent something like that?
Every time Port Vale fail to even get a single point in a football match.Valiant losers. How often have we said that?
