I do know the Boks haven't a hope of winning. Club rugby is experiencing a downturn and the national side is fractured and full of egos. They're going for a holiday, we're going for silverware.
-
LOL, Boks are solid, always going for gold.
Ireland deserve to win, they do play hard, the world cup has eluded them forever, one thing that can be said is that this is rated as the best Irish squad in a long time, so who knows maybe with enough Blarney stone kissing and leprechaun stroking y'all might even make it to the semi's.
-
We'll have to make it interesting...fancy a bet?

Here are the betting odds:
-
Ireland might be good, but there is always one better
Eat your heart out!

$100 to who goes furthest. If we meet (likely in the QF) add $5 per point difference...
IRL 38 v SA 6
38 - 6 = 32
32 x 5 = 160 + 100
160 + 100 = Total Winnings $260

Wales are strong but Ireland's preparation has been perfect. We lost all our matches

Sounds about fair, how about more folk getting involved and have an accumulated pot?
So if SA and Ireland face each other I predict SA 12 : Ireland 9 (I'm not as crazy as you)

Well, the Aussies couldn't handle our pack. Great scrums, solid defence and forced a lot of penalties. It was a great match.
-
Gotta say they are a good squad this year.
I see the Boks dismantled Fuji 49-3

You should have seen Auckland city after that game. IT HAD TURNED GREEN. Loads of your country men out onthe town.
-
I say All blacks and Boks look good so far, we will see if Ireland can last the distance.
I'm waiting for the Aussie vs boks game.
did ya see what we did to Namibia? Cricket score!
-
England v France
South Africa v Australia
Ireland v Wales
New Zealand v Argentina
Interesting that both the northern and southern hemispheres are represented equally. And will have teams in the final. But who?
-
Yeah, that match up does look rather sinister and planned, equally represented yet seperate, forcing a north vs south final.
I'm very concerned that my boks are not gonna defend their title, Australia may be more than they can handle right now.
I believe Ireland should progress into Semi's and the All blacks are a no brainer.
England vs France is gonna be a great game, as well as SA vs Australia too difficult to call.
-
Not sure about beating the Welsh. They're a quality side with a lot of talented youths.
Injuries are key from here on in too. Aussie backline are missing some experienced heads.
Commentators here say it'll be England v New Zealand final. I want Ireland v South Africa
-
Ireland go out
So do England. As Phil Vickery said 'Let the autopsy begin'
Actually the Ireland Wales match was very deflating. Wales just too energetic and had skilled player in every position. Ireland couldn't keep with the pace of the Welsh. Well done Wales a deserved victory
As for England, they looked like they might make a comeback in the second half but a late surge from the French kept them quiet.
-
Sorry about that mate, really. I expected Ireland to cruise this encounter.
I expected England to choke, especially against France...history is a bitch.
So now it's South Africa's chance, personally I have my doubts, I believe we will lose but hope for a win, even if we do win we get to face the in-form All blacks afterwards.
-
Gee, Wales were impressive.... sorry Rich.
Bring it on Pete!!!!!
