Well that didn't last long.

England's active participation in the World Cup is over after tonight's 33-13 loss to Australia made it a horrendous seven days for Stuart Lancaster's side. Needing a win to have any chance of making the knock out stages, the home side in Twickenham are the first team in history to exit the competition at the group stage. England played the last ten minutes without their outhalf Owen Farrell after his sinbinning, and with that tackle went their chances of recovering from having trailed by 17-3 at the break. https://twitter.com/SportsJOEdotie/status/650411137662648320 Apart from Bernard Foley's Wwikipedia page trolling Irish fans it seemed too great glee in another depressing defeat for our neighbours in a sporting tournament https://twitter.com/ihearthestia/status/650414638002274304 https://twitter.com/shoegalshell/status/650412647721123840 https://twitter.com/brendanmcveigh1/status/650413764538429440 https://twitter.com/lifestylesports/status/650412820039921665 https://twitter.com/Bernard_Dunne/status/650412799525584896 https://twitter.com/PaddyMcKenna/status/650412829737111552 https://twitter.com/nesspuss/status/650412877770190848 https://twitter.com/Pendred/status/650413122478579712 https://twitter.com/WingNutGalway/status/650412290840350728 https://twitter.com/TommyMartinTV3/status/650412127241551876 https://twitter.com/kenearlys/status/650413845433970690 https://twitter.com/saveciaranmurph/status/650414732843872256 https://twitter.com/RealCFrampton/status/650414104142848000
