Outside of an Olympics (when a bronze medal is up for grabs), what's there to achieve from this match?

Sometimes the Northern Hemisphere rugby just bores us to complacency too.

Not sure that is an entirely accurate comment!?
England were easily the best country in the world for the 2yrs leading up to the world cup, and I'm sure they were deserved favourites for the cup.
You are right, AUS played their final the week previous, but came back from 14-5 down I think at half time to take it to over time, where they were beaten in the 2nd half of extra time by Wilkinson in the dying stages.
FWIW I believe NZ smashed France in the 3rd place play off.. much like they will in the final..

Unbelievable performance after penalising Australia for even the slightest transgression, he lets NZ get away with everything at the breakdown.
Richie McCaw spent so much time on the French side I thought he was playing for them
Bring back rucking - if the refs wont penalising him for blatantly cheating, give the f***ing cheat some scars to remember his games
