All Blacks v Ireland II

@bluedex said in Ireland II:
The one thing I am seeing though is that your taking a small group of loons posting BS on social media (some of it a wind-up) and then applying their views to the general population. I have heard nothing about the game all week and I work in a building with a 1000 people.
"you're"

@bluedex there is now whinging about the whinging about the whinging...
If we can get to the 4th tier of whingeing I'll be happy

Seriously though, why do you even care?? You did win the game right? What's the big issue with some idiot journo writing something that's less than complimentary about your team? I actually don't understand it.
For example, Stephen Jones is always writing derogatory stuff about the Irish team, but everyone here just laughs at him!edit: I had to check whether I'd used "your" or "you're" in there. Thankfully not.

@bluedex You haven't heard anything at your workplace so that must obviously mean that we are wrong. Great logic. Out of the 1000, just how many did you speak to? And since rugby is a minority sport in Ireland as you just stated, it's quite likely that the majority of your work colleagues didn't even watch the game. I think my link provides much stronger evidence than your sample size of 1000 of which a vast majority are probably non rugby fans.

You're talking out your ass my friend. You're on the other side of the world maybe? I'm here. There's very little bitching. Get over it.

Haha...I have many friends in Ireland and they all claim the opposite.

Says the Canadian. If you're over it, why continue to post on the topic? Just shutdown your computer and have a lemsip.

@bluedex said in Ireland II:
@akan004 Haha, look I know you're looking for something to be offended about and the thought that the nasty Irish people said something bad about a NZ player must be appealing, but... It's just not happening buddy, sorry!
I'm pretty sure you're an Irish troll. No need to lie about your nationality over here.

@Kiwidom said in Ireland II:
@akan004 Agreed and I think we all know who is the one talking out their arse....
"All" two of you?
I haven't had this much fun on the net in ages, but have to go now, I'm sure you're (??) sorry to hear. Hope your sulks have improved for the next time I'm on!!

And here I was thinking Canadians were laid back easy going alternatives to Americans.
Look the Irish are extremely loyal to their local sides. They are superb at supporting their team they travel en masse around Europe to do so.
The flip side is that objectivity is not a strongpoint as that would negate blind loyalty and as i said if there's one thing you can't accuse the Irish of its disloyalty.
The Irish were aggrieved about what they saw as thuggery and went into bat for their side. It's what they do.

@Billy-Tell Hey, never use the words "Canadians" "Alternatives" and "Americans" in the same sentence!
Yeah you're probably right but honestly, all wind-ups aside, the "whingeing" angle has obviously been massively overstated in NZ. Most people here are perplexed by it.
