RWC Week 5: Ireland v Scotland
-
AS much as I think we will struggle against Ireland - mainly with structure and discipline - I believe our defense has a lot more starch than the Scots are showing ....
Unfortunately - I sincerely believe a massive factor on the outcome of the IRE V AB quarter final will be the appointment of the officials ..... if they are permitted to slow the game to this sort of degree then the ABs simply don't have the game plan to compete -

I don't see how any team is going to stop Ireland from romping to the title.
Agree - unbackable favourites, should be $1.05 at the TAB

I think South Africa is best equiped with their full front on brutality
-

The irony is, Ireland can the game well at pace, yet are awful time wasters.
Yes cos they are there ultimate team ATM. Against teams that want speed, they slow it down, against those that want slow, they'll speed it up. I've said from the beginning RWC favourites by a large margin

Another Foster first - we boycott the QF because we have absolutely no chance against the greatest 1st 5 ever. He’s better than Carter, Ella, Larkham
-
tough penalty there, felt he came through nicely ....
this game is over already...
-
@ACT-Crusader His control skills are the best but to say he is Better than Carter on attack is a stretch.
-
Lol I don’t know who the commentator is but far out he’s fluffing Ireland. Sounds like they are the best team to ever play the game, the games already over etc.

I wouldn't put him ahead of Larkham either tbh - .. still one of the greats - but a very different player to peak Carter or Larkham ... more of a Wilkinson type of player -- but that may be my SH biases showing
-
@Canes4life the game is already over.
-
No doubt they are a more complex side now under Farrell than they were under Schmidt
-
@KiwiMurph man I hope we beat them next week. They need humbling.
To be fair though they look booody good.
-
Scotland backs showing NZ how not to defend. Plus they just can’t create anything to save themselves.

Well if they win the WC and take the unbeaten record in this competitive era I suggest they could be considered one of the best ever.
-
Just in case you didn’t hear it, this game is over.
Not sure why the Scotland players even put on the jersey today.
