So he wants Owens to ref the breakdown. Does that mean he wants him to stop Ireland trying to slow the ball down on the deck? 🤔
oh, my sides! Ireland are worried about NZ playing Owens??? FFS
I know its posturing but it's a bit disrespectful towards one of the top refs in the world

Really want Aussie to get up for this one Perth-style, think England will be a tough SF opponent (if we beat Ire) if they're high on confidence from winning well.
I just want all our Southern neighbors to beat the UK teams. And of course I think we have a better chance against Aus than England. I'd love to see them pull out a Perth game.
What about Ireland? You didn't mention them.....just the UK teams....🤔
Aren't Ireland part of the Uk?
No. They are the republic of Ireland
You appear to have fallen into a sarchasm
To be fair, the Ireland rugby team also represents Northern Ireland don't they? So double fail.

Yeah they do , on the South Africa for 2023 rwc thread Poulsen kept claiming that Ireland was too small and some of the games would have to be held in the Uk - he meant Northern Ireland.
I think the Scots voted against Ireland getting hosting rights too , before this World Cup I would have thought there was probably a good reason . After the events of the past fortnight I’m going to assume it’s becausd the SRU are fluffybunnies.

Yes they do. I dont know if its official but when I visited Belfast the cabbie I talked rugby with said they do. Are there any northern Irish players in the team?

Fortunately he is also one of the least likely to pay any attention to that sort of bollocks.
Yeah could backfire a little. I don't think the right mind games to be playing with a ref is to criticise him being accurate, friendly and jovial? Not the route I'd go down and I'd hope the ABs wouldn't either.

Maybe he'll pay more attention at the breakdown now? đź‘Ť

Just to clarify Ireland the rugby team represent the island of Ireland. Not like soccer where you have two separate countries, the Republic and NI.
Makes things interesting come Olympic 7s.
Means they have an unfair advantage being able to pick the best from two countries ... therefore clear favourites for this QF ...

@canefan Stockdale (spit) and Best are Ulstermen. Don't know if they were born there, but play there I think. Can't recall any others.
I’m pretty certain Bundee Aki isn’t from Northern Ireland

He's also not in the current Irish team.

Kick off 11.15 pm according to google (I thought it was 11.45pm). Is the team named today?
11.15 according to the app. I frikken hope the team is named! Hopefully there's something like no ALB so m4l loses his shit, or something like that.

That would amuse me as well, but I really do want ALB in the team. Perhaps they could just forget to name him but play him anyway, best of both worlds.

I wish someone would come up with something new. In the same breath they are saying about the ABs “they really push the boundaries at the breakdown and we just want a fair contest” to “they are a great rugby team”
Boring.
By the way, Bring on Ireland.
