Malinga the Swinga Posted October 8, 2023 Author Share Posted October 8, 2023 Ref spots 10 & 12 offside at line out. Where's this guy been all the tournament, particularly when Ireland playing? Oh wait, he's penalising Portugal so different rules apply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be Barnes that gets the game I wish it was as easy to pick lottery numbers. Refa announced and Wayne, I'm part of the entertainment, Barnes get Ireland game. I'll go for him listening to Sexton throughout game and spoiling the 80 minutes with his pish talk and style. Games goosed if him and O'Keeffe considered worthy of this stage, although Peyper getting game to ruin is laughable. Wales v Argentina will be reffed with a shrug of shoulders and toss of a coin as Jacko struggles to keep up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malinga the Swinga Posted October 13, 2023 Author Share Posted October 13, 2023 Also nice to see those friendly Irish fans falling out over singing of Zombie. It appears our friends from the South and those of republican feelings in North are not particularly happy at the sing being sung and have called it out as pro Brit and anti nationalist. Strange as our resident Irish contributor likes to portray all sweetness and light about the Irish when the reality is far darker and more unpalatable. Come on New Zealand.

I P Knightley Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 2 hours ago, Mikey1874 said: Dupont (and Farrell) both start. Great selection by England. Motoring on nicely with Ford at 10 (a better all round 10 than Farrell in my opinion) and big Freddie Steward at 15. Get to their first crunch game, against team that handed them their arses at home not so long ago, so what do they do? Bring in 'Shoulders' at 10 and put their third fly-half (should be second) at full-back whilst dropping Steward (England player of the year for the last 2 years) entirely. I don't know whether that's incompetence or arrogance but I really hope it blows up in their faces. Matt Dawson predicted a northern hemisphere clean sweep for the QFs. My head (unfortunately) agrees with him but you just know that England and Wales have the capacity to feck it up whilst FRA v RSA and IRE v NZL (the matches that should be semi-finals) are way too close to call.

JWL Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 It really is a complete feck up by World Rugby. Scotland, at this moment, are better than Wales, Argentina, Fiji and England but we aren't involved in the quarters. Either France or SA aren't going to be involved in the semi's but Wales or Argentina and either England or Fiji are!!!??? Absolute shambles. Anyway, I'll be full on Kilted Kiwi tomorrow evening.

New Town Loafer Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 This Ireland team, incidentally, is the best drilled side I’ve ever seen in my life. It doesn’t necessarily have the world class operators that other great teams in the past have had - albeit they have some superb individuals - but by jove do they play their system impeccably.

I agree but, despite this, my neighbour, Bob the Gob from (Oh My God, they) Kilkenny is as twitchy as could be about this match as could be. And, boy, does Bob know (and talk) a lot about his rugby. Bob's the guy who interrupted Serge Betsen who was busy giving a group of young lads (under 9 or so) some insights to the game so that Bob, himself, could give his thoughts OK, that was overstepping the mark but I do respect Bob's insight to the game and, if he's nervous, there's hope for the ABs.
