Don't run shite ball, it doesn't work
Pick n go
Big fan of long or wipers
Roll the dice bring on Roigard at 50 min
Will sulk if BB does own half cross kick or dink -

We're probably on the 3rd line of betting at the moment. If this was a horse race Ireland would be at around the $2.50 mark, Friance and South Africa at $3s, and us probably at 4s. England at about 7s or 8s, and everyone else in double figures.
And i am happy with that. But the pretty lady in the mounting yard is probably not picking us off the parade.
You’d have to think that England would be odds on to make the final

Reiko also makes most of his tackles, as well as using his speed to cover for others.
He's got pretty much the best attacking stats in the comp so far

their draw is the only reason they aren't at double figures, they are a knock out chance in a semi against a team coming off a war

not tomorrow, you could turn up half cut and beat Italy
Yes there some strange shit on this forum right now. Don't criticise a ten that has underperformed for years but talk up the chances of losing to fucking Italy??
There's actually been comments on the Fern from people saying they hope the ABs crash out as they can't stand the thought of Foster doing well.
And I'm sure it wasn't the Walrus being ironic.

Carley is not a ref I enjoy watching, just seems overly pedantic and often leads to a stop start game.
He's shit IMHO. The only Ref I've ever suspected of deliberate bias

Its interesting Aus betting markets suggest they have no idea.. Ire and SA on $4, France on 4.5 and we have slid to $5.. Ireland unbelievably started at $6 in Aus
not bad odds the QFs will obviously see all these shorten or blow out
novelty bets
Eng who? $13 not bad given their draw

I give up. I'm 8 pages behind. Have no idea what you fluffybunnies are thinking or whinging about. Makes no fucking difference.
I'm going into this game, and any other game we're lucky enough to play thereafter, as if it's a knockout because it is.
This XXIII looks pretty damned good.
I'll see all you fluffybunnies in the morning, hoping we come out on the best side of the game, and that the best side wins, and that's us.

Right. Here in Lyon. Going to the game. Can see why Kiwis like it here. More of a laid-back feel to it than Paris. Weather is good, very warm, clear, cloudless blue skies. Food is tasty, beer is cold, and everthing in good walking distance, although the Rugby Village is a bit shit, it is made up for by the charm of the old city which is slow to wake up but comes to life at night....or is that just me...lol. Certainly a lot more bonhomie here. Plenty of Kiwis and AB supporters thronging in the streets, all doing the same touristy things just waiting on the match to start. Cant wait. C'mon Black!

@Jailbreak7 I don’t know what “thronging in the streets” is, but I sure as fck wish I was there doing it with y’all!
-
If we mess this up will be looking forward to Frank's post game analysis.

Fan Zone was a joke, not a screen in sight
Far better to watch matches in barsGetting to and from the stadium is laborious
Get there early, be prepared to take forever to come home
At least that was my experience last Sunday
JokeCouple of bars/vans outside the stadium before going in
They're easier to get served and have food tooInside the ground only Asahi is served
So if you're not a lager drinker you're fucked
CrazyEnjoy the match, cracking stadium

Cheers for that mate, will do!

This is the key. It's that simple.
