* Due to circumstances - Not least in that the men in my household will be hogging the main TV for the Footy World Cup- I probably will not get to see the Sky Sports televised games :-(


If you manage to watch the above games (or even if you don't) -
Please feel free to post if you would like to! :-) :-) :-) :-)

Good Afternoon Everyone :-D :-D

STUNNING ANTHEM <3

As I am banned to the bedroom for this game - The men are watching the Footy World Cup on the main TV downstairs - I am forced to listen to this game on the Radio

England have given away a penalty for taking out Vermeulen in the air :-0

Jantjies is going for the posts :-0

He pushed it left and so England fans can relax for the moment :-D

England have early discipline problems- they have given away another penalty and Jantjies has kicked clear into the RSA half for a lineout

England's turn for a penalty now

Will Owen Farrell go for the posts?

OWEN FARRELL NAILED IT!

England has the first points on the scoreboard today


RSA 0 ~ ENGLAND 3

Another penalty for England :-D

They find touch for a lineout

Youngs exploited some Blind-side space and played some great rugby but the ball ended up in the RSA hands
