Ireland v NZ - Chicago Showdown & Dublin Duel

[pakman]

@cgrant Best scrummagers are Moody and Hames on LH, Franks and Laulala TH.
Crockett is superb bench LH, as Charlie is TH, but developing replacements for both pressing. Moli great promise and will benefit from being in Chiefs squad with Crafty Hoeft. But do need a punchy ball carrier for bench and Ofa certainly is that.

the hoopla just gets better and funnier.

The Irish and New Zealand national airlines have now got in on the act - on Twitter of course.

@Pot-Hale I think Ireland won the wit competition.
"Green is the new black! 😉" Classic.
And I am downmarking AirNZ for shamrock cliche..

"If you lose, we’d be happy to cut the grass at @AKL_Airport"
Can I wager with Aer Lingus too? My lawn needs some work..

Sorry - Aer Lingus are obviously derivative plagiarizing gits ...

@booboo said in Ireland II:

Well ... watching BeIN Sport's round up of the Test matches from overnight it seems green is the new black.

@booboo if it makes you feel any happier, I don't really mind who does my lawn..

You know the marketing is good when you start sharing ads good banter.

IRFU and NZRU could develop this whole event further into a regular Series each year or second year depending on schedule. As two of the smaller unions, cooperation on a number of fronts could be very beneficial to both.
