RWC: All Blacks v Ireland (QF2)
-
Irish Journalistic (or should that be Jingoistic) bingo:
Haka questioned? Check.
All Blacks cynical cheats? Check
Poaching? Not yet
Pick on individual's off field behaviour? Check ...Ireland taking the moral high ground ...
Gutter level IMO.

@booboo shows they are worried about another 1/4 exit...
Someone should ask these muppets about the Cibi, Sipi Tau and Sivi Tsu and why they don't attract similar attention...or why Munster were allowed to do one in that mid week match some years back...

But Ronan has inside knowledge on Richie which would be valuable because he hasn't played enough test footy for teams to fully analyze him yet.
I doubt that Ronan knows much about Richie that they can't see from Crusaders and AB matches. Maybe what he has for breakfast or something? That is probably the real reason why Joe didn't bother calling him, there wasn't much to learn.

"loyalty to a particular team"
Yeah Joe...looked in a mirror recently?
Such a petty comment there snowy. The mans not allowed to coach abroad no?
He surely is - as long as he realises that under The Treason Act (1922) - if he wins, we're going to stick him against a wall and shoot him!
Joe's got away incredibly lightly - compared to when Robbie Deans coached Australia.
To say something nice about him - at least Chieka is lining up on the side of the Loyalist coaches along with Hansen, Erasmus and Brunel.
I'm not averse to seeing them overcome the traitors, Jones, Gatland, Joseph and Schmidt!

If the authorities get to him before I do. Otherwise he is a coat.
I don't really have a problem with Joe, he actually hasn't been a whiney, bitchy type unlike some of the Irish press who get paid to be so. Some other coaches are of that ilk as well.
There also seems to be a question over where is originally from. Herald says Kaiwaka, Wiki says Kawakawa.If we lose tonight and I have to make a coat, Kaiwaka would be more convenient, hence me looking it up.

Really hope that Reece scores the match winning try. That will shut him up.

Just watch Out for him him when he is holding a pen ( or maybe I’ve got the wrong movie )

Me and Jimmy could never be made because we had Irish blood...

He's from Woodville.
Was a few years ahead of me at Tararua College.

I don't think Ireland Rugby are in any position at all to complain about poaching. NZ might pick up one or two players after school age, but most of the world are far worse than us now.

This is the most nervous/excited I've been for a game in around 8 years.
