Tonga Too Good For England...

...but England still won.
Guess who's responsible for this sorry turn of events? Yep. Jonny "will never holiday in Australia" Wilkinson.
I didn't watch the match live. I did set my alarm but...come on...it's Saturday and the match was at 5am! I had set the DVDR to record but don't think I'll be watching it...so will leave it up to the nice people at Stuff NZ to tell you what transpired.

Typhoon Tonga finally blew out of puff in France, the breath of fresh air that was the South Seas Islanders finally meeting their match at this World Cup in the form of a disciplined and predatory England side at the Parc des Princes.
England had just too much firepower in a willing and high-tempo encounter to secure a 36-20, four tries to two victory, that safely secures second spot in pool A and a quarter-final matchup next Saturday against the Wallabies in Marseille.
Once again Jonny Wilkinson's boot played a key role in the victory for the world champions, the No 10 grabbing 16 points via two penalties, two conversions and a couple of snappily taken dropped goals in Paris on Saturday (NZ time).
Though it had to be said England's talisman looked far from convincing with ball in hand or on defence, a fact sure to be noted by the Australians.

Um ... I'm going to stay silent during their next encounter ... as they say "if you can't handle the heat ..." well, I'm getting away from this kitchen well before the s**t hits the fan.
Be well, dear Dusk.
