The run from Robinson. Got to be one of the most iconic world cup moments
My favourite try of all time
Best ever?
@@popcornboxing369 Because he didn't score himself it makes way less highlight clips than it should. Proper jaw dropping moment
@@kennethfisher7861 yes
@@kennethfisher7861 I think he could probably have rounded the last defender and scored himself, but the whole team that year were the same, not about personal glory, about winning as a team. IF he had scored himself, it would have been the greatest solo try ever.
Boy, never in the World Cup history one kicking boot has been so memorable.
I assume you meant Mike Catt?
Shane and Jason on the same pitch… those were the days!
Great game but this England team were special & went on to win the WC deservedly in my Welsh opinion & I did shout for them in the final but well played Wales you done yourselves proud .
You guys could win it this year, and that's from an Englishman. Always a great contest between us.
@Firsthgyhgyhuy Lastujhujhuj Yep.
Lee Morgan some pretty special players on that pitch!!
I still remember my Welsh brother-in-law laughing his head off when Wales went ahead really rubbing it in. That was the moment I knew that beating Wales was just as important as winning any competition.
Just shows how versatile this England team was. In the first half played an expansive game that played into the Welsh hands. In the 2nd half they played a tight, forward dominant game going through huge amounts of phases (with brilliant tactical kicking by Catt and Wilkinson to the corners) and frustrating the Welsh into silly errors/penalties. (offside,hands in ruck etc). I wonder how many other sides (The All Blacks included) could completely change their game plan from one half to the next like this England side could?
Depends. Are you talking about 2005-2015 All Blacks or the All Blacks in this world cup?
Kicked to death by Wilkinson again. Amazing we outscored England three tries to two. We played well that day, but they were a special team.
To be fair try 2 should have been an England penalty for playing the ballon the floor and tge kicks came from Wales infringing to stop tries.
@@soddof7972 Oh yes, don't deny your second point. And England were the best team. On your first point about the try, laws re ball in ruck etc were slightly different in 2003.
3 tries to 1
Wales we're a good side as well, but to win a grand slam and World Cup in the same year is something special
That kicker guy, Wilkinson, looks promising, he could go on to achieve greatness....
That run by Robinson.
This was a great england side rugbymadfan
1:01 - Wilko's classic do or die attitude. I really miss this guy's presence in England games.
same against Italy in 2011 eventhough England woulda win by far hammered him in to touch injuring himself
That was Cohen
The chemistry on both sides, but obviously with England was sublime.
The referee plays a staring performance. Skillfully blowing his whistle at every opportunity.
Welsh bitterness after 17 years? Surely not!
You know these are highlights right?
Brilliant quality
1:26 - In no way was there a player playing the ball whilst on the floor...
Yeah number 13..not sure how he missed that tbh the ref was very eagle eyes the rest of the game
I’d love to hear the commentary from robinsons run.
What a game
Mike Tindall for the first Welsh try:
“Let’s kick the ball to opposite wing - Ben Kay will definitely skin Shane Williams and score an amazing try”
What a first try by Wales - they looked like the All Blacks
And wilkinson ofcourse
Wilkinson 0:20 saved england there
What made him a great player. He dragged us through the world cup, grinding out gritty performances.
Lol was that alain rolland
None of those jackals would be legal under current interpretation. Maybe one day they'll stop tweaking the laws of the game! :)
They'll stop tweaking the laws when NH teams start playing rugby!
@@australianhistory6908 I like the fact that there are so many different ways to play the game! If every side played the same way that too would become very tiresome. The World Champions must be able to defend against any tactic thrown at them. If you want to see a game where all sides play the same way look at Rugby League.
wilkinson e robinson...
Devasting England,as his fan from 33 years, that's I wanna see for next World Cup,they are the players,fails only the right mentality!
A good video would have been better with commentary though?
After a year or so thinking they're something special the welsh are back in their place, last in the six nations (Come on, Italy dont count at this point). Lost to everyone and playing some shit rugby
Waleswould have won if they didnt give all thosepenalties away
Don't give away penalties when Sir Jonny is on the pitch...
But they did, it's like saying Wales would of won if they scored 10 tries
And if my granny was a bloke she'd be my grandpa.
I'd be a millionaire if I won the Euro Millions jackpot.
And if they hadn't given those penalties away and play had continued, how many of those three points would have been five or seven instead. There is a reason teams give away penalties at times and that is because it is better to concede the three than risk the five or seven.
Wales by far the more entertaining team .
its rugby not ice skating, only one statistic that counts at the end of the day!
I'd rather be boring and win than be entertaining and lose.
Shaun Mclaren wow, a moron with a real inferiority complex, how sad
@FOMO FUD your mates don't care if their team lose as long as they play entertaining rugby? Your mates are liars or idiots. Maybe both.
@FOMO FUD the Springboks played exciting rugby AND won. Fair play to them. England looked all out of ideas by the end of the first 20 minutes. Anyone that denies it is deluded. I stand by my statement of boring win over exciting loss though.
Wales .... owned
Yeah can't believe Australia knocked us out. Oh well revenge for all the times we knocked them out I guess. Not sure what that's got to do with Wales though.
One man team England kicks to victory
Does that type of victory not count in your opinion?
The key word there is "victory"
only took one man to beat that shite Wales team
If you don't want to lose to penalties kicked don't infringe over and over in kicking range.
i can see pre-gay gareth thomas
Pretty sure he was gay here, though I'm not sure why that's relevant?
Bloody stupid comment..
Probably wasn't diagnosed back then...
I was told by people from bridgend in 1999 that he was batting for the other side...
@@richardprice7763 diagnosed?
If ever there was an example of a game where the better team lost, this was it. The rest as they say is history
You can be the better team all you like, but if you give a team with a good kicker that many kickable penalties, you'll lose every single time.
That England team won a grand slam, a world cup, beat Australia (the previous world champions) 4 times in a row, and beat New Zealand in their own backyard. Wales weren't even in the same league.
England played their worst game and Wales played their best and still lost.
England were run ragged by Wales and had no answer to Wales ball in hand attacking rugby .. England ad no choice but to kick to corners second half pressure Welsh lineout win penalties for Wilkinson to kick them to victory
People outside of Wales remember 2 things from this game.
1. Jason Robinson cutting Wales to shreds.
2. England winning.
You don;t get points for fancy play.
@@Nightstalker321 people outside of eng remember Wales cutting eng to shreds playing ball in hand attacking rugby outscoring eng 3 tries to 1.. eng and Johnson realised at half time they'll get battered if they continue to attempt to play like Wales.. second half eng revert to 10 man rugby kicking to the corners pressure Wales poor lineout resulting in penalties and Wilkinson kicking the goals... that's what happened .
@@isitwasit8756 Remind me who won.....*mic drop*
@@Nightstalker321 😂😂😂😂😂
Play to your strengths. England kicked tactically and for points because they could do it well. Wales were the better team with ball in hand but England forced penalties from them and racked up the points.
This is not as good as 2015 where we beat England in they're own back yard and knocked them out of their own world cup, first host team to ever go out of their own world cup at the group stages, haha brilliant, come on the boys, WAAAAAAAAALEEEES!!
That's the same year Wales went on and won the competition, oh wait....
Haha you Welsh will try anything to try to one up England but at the end of the day we're about to play our third final and you've never got past the semis.
Another deluded Welshman. Wales did NOT knock England out of the world cup, it was Australia you dickhead.
And now Wales are back eating from the five nations' wooden spoon. No point including Italy, they aren't even making up the numbers these days.
And now you're back in your place. Last in the six nations (Italy dont count at this point), lost to everyone and playing shit rugby. Hope you enjoyed five minutes being better than us, enjoy Pivac
