This was the match that really got things moving for Woodward's England and gave them belief that they might build towards something in the 2003 World Cup.
Balshaw was outstanding in that England side for a period of time. He really could change games singlehandedly as his pace, footwork and timing onto the ball was exceptional. He had shades of Cullen in the way he moved and hit the line. Injuries and loss of form under different coaches did for him, but Woodward got the best out of him
Josh Lewsey was so strong in the tackle and Ben Cohen kept on scoring tries, so as soon as Robinson went to 15 it meant Balshaw had to be a bench player, which was a shame as he was a natural 15 and such a good player.
