England 20, Australia 13: A Review in Verse


With the World Cup Group of Death two years away
England improved their chances today.
Standout performances by Robshaw, Vunipola and Brown
Led a famous return from seven points down,
Even though Lancaster’s still not sure how
To contain Israel Folau.

  1. How about:
    Two teams of boys both played like crud
    and an Irish referee who was a dud;
    Who (at best) was guessing at the scrum
    And not much better on the run.

    At least he made some correct guesses,
    Unlike the two game changing misses
    A touch judge poorly positioned
    And an awful TMO decision.

    1. The ref's performance, you've incorrectly assessed.
      In the scrums the Wallabies repeatedly transgressed
      With a front row with spines permanently compressed.
      Still, your rhyme skills have left me seriously impressed.
