What I meant was that they would rather have lost in the final to SA than the
nowhere team they turned out to be.
Anyway SA didn't win it ,England lost it.

That is exactly where you're wrong Mike. The Australians would see defeat for
what it was - coming second. Coming close is seen as to be celebrated over here
- when I heard that Ashton bloke prattling on about what they'd achieved - f***
all. Morinho had it rigt when he chucked his runners-up medals away (mind you,
didn't he also give one of his winners medals away saying he already had one??).
This mindset never produces winners. I never heard Billy Bremner celebrating
the Runners-Up slot either!
