That's Hartley the NZ born captain.

Still time to bite someone

[Unite]

Well he is off so no there isn't.

[Hooroo]

This really is one of the best games of rugby. <br><br>
England have been immense! Mostly on defence but taken chances too!<br><br>
Congrats

<p>Straya not looking sharp</p>

Great defence by England. Australia have had how much ball to score the one try?

[SynicBast]

<p>Gawd that was some of the most turgid laboured attacking play I've ever seen from australia</p>

[dingo]

<p>That try must be the killer. Its 13 points!</p>

[No Quarter]

Crazy 2nd 40. England just hanging on for dear life with body on the line defense. Aus refusing to take the points, they almost became obsessed with scoring the try when multiples of 3 would have sufficed. The stats are insanely one sided in Aus favour except for where it counts.

[Siam]

Bloody Aussies. The rugby world gives you one job..... Don't lose to bloody England....

[Billy Tell]

<p>So...the world's best coach*, has just lost the first ever series at home to England in history. So much possession...only 7 points.<br><br>
I think England can lay rightful claim to being the world's 2nd best side, and I suspect the world rankings will soon reflect that.  NZ has a definite new arch-rival.<br><br>

<p>Aussies a team of individuals and deserving losers</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Well done England</p>

[Unco]

<p>What happened to Coach of the Year?</p>

[dingo]

<p>Well done England.  They defended well and really took their chances when on offer. 2 Nil and still on for the whitewash.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>That really was some shit attack from the convicts. Good sides figure out how to unlock good defenses.</p>

<br>
Well maybe not.<br><br>
Well done England.

[Billy Tell]

<p>Australia remind me of Ali "we don't do DGs" Williams.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>2 weeks in a row when kicking penalties was the right answer to the Q.</p>

[Derm McCrum]

Congratulations England. Fully deserved win after that defensive shift. <br><br>
England now join Ireland and France in securing a tour series win in Australia. <br><br>
Roll on next week.

<p>If you're an Australian, that's one of those games where you sit there with your head in your hands thinking, "how the fuck did we not win that and - in fact - end up quite comprehensively beaten on the scoreboard?"</p>
