Swing Low Sweet Chariot

Wow.  This is what I felt when the final whistle blew:


That was one of the most intense, most physical rugby games I've ever watched.  Not live - I couldn't stay up for the 1 am start (it might be different for the final),  But the margin of victory actually should have been higher, such was the domination and missed chances for England.  Perfect tactics - we won the game on territory and line speed.  So, so unexpected - we humbled the All Blacks and made them look like a decidedly mediocre team.  And I didn't see that coming.  I never thought I'd say this, but now my only worry is that we used up all our intensity and reserves on the semi-final and don't have much left for the final.
