It's very different to Johnny Wilkinson, you know what I mean?

You can't let it down like that.

It was a good story.

But come here and beat Australia.

I know.

We were lucky at that time.

I always say that I had never lost to Australia going into that game.

So it was a weird sort of time of...

In 1999, obviously, we got drop-kicked out by Yanni De Beer in South Africa in the quarter-finals for our worst result ever in a World Cup.

And then, like anything after a World Cup, there was a separation.

You know, you have Ben Clarks, you have Victor Abogus, you have Gerry Guskerts, you have Fielder Glanvold.

all these guys sort of retired and we brought in this young group and we went on that run from 2000 where I'd only lost four times.

I think the final was my 35th test and I only lost four times.

Right, so real confidence.

Which was quite strange for that time and we were playing Australia, we'd never lost them.

So from my point of view, Ian Bolshaw, Josh Lucy, Jason Robinson, Ben Cohen, Steve Thompson,

Ben Kay, from their point of view, half the team, that was the norm, was winning.

We didn't play well in that World Cup, but to get it done in the end and have it done in the way that it happened was amazing.

People will never forget it.

That's what's so lovely about sport, isn't it?
