Quote ="ChrisH"You only have to listen to the skill and professionalism of Cameron Smith in his post match speech , in front of at least 50,000 people by then , without a script , having just played the best game in the world at the very highest level , to understand why these guys are so far ahead of everyone else. The chances are that most of the rest of that team would have had a similarly professional stab at it as well if asked. Certainly they are big , fit and supremely skilled athletes but most of them seem to be blessed with an intellectual capacity that is just in a different league and clearly makes them a dream to coach.'"
Totally agree. I have made the point before on here that I feel it is an issue with all English sport.
I was there yesterday and although disappointed it wasn't closer and NZ didn't win, you have to congratulate Australia for such a complete team performance. I do think England would have run them closer, just because it would have been a home final for them.
