Default What do you think of the Siege of Tobruk

The siege of Trobuk 'the longest sige in british history' well bing australian I follow the anzac's where ever they went, and I was wondering what anyone else thought of either the anzac, british or the german troops at trobuk. Do you think it was a thorn in rommels side, or should the brisith have evacuated it before hand, but would that have lost the north african war for the british? i have read many stories and first hand accounts of the relationship between the british and the aussie troops at this time and if rommel knew of the friction between the two would he have been more likely to try and push harder for tobruk?
