FULL REPLAY | 2006 Cook Cup G2: Wallabies vs England

[@andrewcarson9981]

Man of the match Andy Goode. The only one who can sport a decent mid section and play flyhalf for an international team. What a talismanic player...

[@twatnosher]

Ah! The flyhalf answer to who ate all the pies, it’s a good job he makes and believes his own press.

[@Nick-vg4tt]

What a match. Thanks for putting it online!

[@flyboy970]

Good god I had forgotten how bloody average this England team was.

[@thadtuiol1717]

Amazing that this dire England team almost went all the way the following year at the RWC and defended their crown.

[@codydwyer]

Next can you upload 2011 world cup quarter-final Wallabies vs Springboks? These are great!

[@Alfonzridesagain]

Tom Varndell was absolutely humiliated by Tuqiri here. Neither fast nor physical enough to get round him in attack or stop him in defence. Shown up as not being up to international standard

[@AAdams456]

England vs Australia 2005 next?

[@EllliotJackRussel1]

Rowntree and Larkham: here opponents, now both in Munster coaching staff.

[@CG-or1re]

love Stephen lark ham

[@EllliotJackRussel1]

Tuqiri had Varndell in his pocket all the game. Too late when he scored.

[@pelekirokovadaa1139]

How good was Latham in this match.

[@darthmong7196]

Steve Walsh? I wonder how this match might go? 🤔

[@etienne2524]

1998 vs England next

[@deanvdm2177]

Mortlock was a good player but why did they let him be the goalkicker for 2 years? Also cost them 2007 WC quarter against england.

[@rbjohmson77]

well that was a trousers down botty spanking!

[@newmanj8690]

I still can't quite get over how s**t that England team was.

[@Kkpb-fh5vt]

J Newman I can. I used to go to pubs or wherever I could find these games shown to watch. It was a tough time for English fans. 10 years later though, we beat them 3-0 in a series in Oz. 🌹

[@Tonishog]

england were shite after woodward left up until the 2010s

[@mrjuckles]

@@Tonishoggood enough to win in the World Cup the following year

[@Tonishog]

Meh, it’s not that hard to reach an RWC final even if you’re not one of the top teams in the world, it only takes winning two games really, you saw that with England in 2023 they fluked their way to the final, France were much better in the semi if you’ve watched too

[@russoswerve7856]

Watching this game reminds me of how much I *HATED* Greg Martin and Phil Kearns commentary

[@Kkpb-fh5vt]

Well Australia you may have won but you can’t even fill the stadium. England could fill Twickenham 5 times for this fixture.

[@Kkpb-fh5vt]

Benjamin Barnard, I would agree. Oz smashed England here. But don’t forget who Australia were knocked out by in the World Cup the following year!!!
