Tucking in

Nothing like a good Chinese meal to absorb all the beer consumed before and after the match. The after-match analysis did not dig too deep beyond a general feeling that the ref was a bit confused at times. England 21-24 New Zealand. Too many TV replays and too much booing that's becoming all too typical among the autumn international crowds. Well done Ireland.

How is it that football crowds seem to be learning manners while rugby crowds are losing theirs? You don't applaud the Last Post, you stand there in respectful silence. They got there with seconds to spare. I guess it was always thus.
