    @Machpants Nope. And there is a mightily good chance that they won't.

    "or Ireland, it would be not winning a quarterfinal again despite having a pretty good team this time round. But then again, they said that in 2007 too. "

    Precisely. Ireland haven't even won an RWC knock-out match yet. It's their quadrennial nemesis. If they fail again on Saturday, it's just more of the same - hopeless at knockout matches. No one has them as favourites to win the RWC - SA, NZ and Fra have been ahead of them with the bookies.

    @Derm-McCrum But if they do win, they've never lost a semi or final. Unlike the rest 🙂

    Very good. Very true. They haven't.

    @Derm-McCrum Paddy Power would disagree with you about Ireland being the favourites 🙂

    @Derm-McCrum In fact, pretty much all the bookies are calling you out on the claim that ireland aren't favourites 😃

    You've been on the Fern for so long and still find us less insufferable than Irish rugby fans?

    Are we speaking in context of the entire group? 🤔

    Well that's changed. So joint favourites with France now. Hmmm.
