[COLOR="Purple"]The results were a bit of a shock to their system - even Johnny Wilkinson went out and had one to much to drink.

I'm sorry to say seasider, whereas u have mentioned that rugby has been hijacked by the 'wrong supporters', the garbage written by the journalists is also appalling
the ridicule directed at the country and its supporters is pitiful
it is a disgrace
South Africa has won the WC, a victory the nation should be proud of and journalists representing the UK have been shameful
disrespectful and a show of general callous behaviour

Seasider, like you say, all of the people I have met who know anything about rugby have been extremely gracious. The yob element are best just ignored as it would otherwise just spoil the win.
The tabloid press are just that, tabloid and best left alone and people like Brian Moore are the exeption. They could all do with taking a leaf from Vickery's book, whilst you could see he was hurting badly, he remained ever gracious.

seasider please do note that this thread is in the sports banter forum, so hopefully it doesn't bite too deep
some of the reporting has been terrible, in the build up and after the match

yes...including all that rubbish about a win for SA will be a win for rugby etc etc...
