England dont have a chance of winning, Austrailla didnt play well, always making mistakes and England dont play the right type of rugby (in my eyes) to win the world cup! but good luck with it England.

I'm fully behind the team, could hardly bare to watch the last 5 mins of the game today.
I'm just being realistic, watching New Zealand play is just something different. But I won't pass judgement until I watch them play France tonight.
I quite like watching international rugby but that English rugby anthem of 'Swing low sweet chariots'......it's gotta be the lamest song ever...kinda embarrassing when I hear that .... and what the hell does 'swing low sweet chariots' mean?
A load of bollocks if you ask me ...
But our guys did good and you gotta respect that.

i was in town (b'am) today then suddenly saw alot (i mean alot) of people running into a bathroom suite shop which had it showing on t.v, (dying 5 minutes of the game) there was so many cheers inand around the shop, then when we finaly won, everyone walking past, even down the road who heard the cheers was cheering!
what a good laugh, it was nice seeing so many fans of both sex's and ages stop shopping/what they were doing and everyone cheering/celebrating together.
also there was alot of "dirty aussie" stuff mentioned,lol

im sure you know what it means but if you dont - it was a slave song when they were in the fields, the chariot was their freedom and they wanted it to carry them away - could have been death or something not entirely sure on that bit - but why we sing i have no idea - and im guessing thats what you meant by what does it mean - cos i have no idea why we sing it considering it was us that enslaved them in the first place.
the song is american in history, but came about when a group toff lad's sung it in honour of a player way back in 1988, its kinda stuck with england since.
amazing what wikipedia can teach you
