O'Driscoll is going to be ready for the first game because he's hard as fuck. Broken skull won't stop him.

Yeah, poor italy
Gonna be a whooping. Then again, our guys haven't played in a few months so they are going to be rusty. Unlike alot of the NH teams that were playing friendlies up until last week. But hopefully we shake the rust quickly.

Yeah, I ate frogs, they were awesome. Wouldn't put cheating past the frenchies, but probably more eye gouging and less food poisoning.

The French are playing shit. I hope they win this one narrowly, then the crowd will get on their backs and they'll probably be crap against Ireland too. If they lose, they'll probably get really fucking angry and start twatting everyone in sight.

Holy shit, Argentina won! Good stuff to them, the French look shocked. This could lead to a quarter final vs NZ for the French. But they've gotta beat Ireland to get there

Ireland could and should win this pool now and avoid the All-Blacks. We're better than Argentina and we're better than France on our day. We could give them a hiding if tonight's France shows up.
I reckon with a bit of momentum we could take the All-Blacks later on in the cup too and make them cry bitter tears of defeat. |

I'm soberer than I've ever been in my entire life. No, it would be a dream come true to face the All-Blacks in the final. Quarters is too early.

I too was with you right up to All Blacks.
Ireland do have a good team this year, but you are 50 years from beating the All Blacks. |

It would be just like the French to come back from last night's game and go on to win the group. They've lost the first game in the 6 Nations a number of times but somehow managed to scrape it back up there and win the whole thing.
France are sort of like Ireland's bogey team. No matter how well Ireland play against them they just seem to never be able to get the job done when the 80 minutes are up. Last night's result was pretty crazy though! Missed it as I was wasting my time down at Rodney Parade watching The Gwent Dragons vs Cardiff Blues.

I honestly thought the Italians would put up a tougher match.
Grown men playing little kids was Australia v Japan, although I thought the Japs started well, and the early penalty goals from Australia was cynical rugby considering who the opponent was. I’m watching the Pom v USA replay – bugger me the Poms look terrible, and the Yanks look quite good. |

The Aussies took a while to warm into it, Japan started well, as you said.
England are shit, USA played well, probably could of got a few tries if some of their support was a bit quicker. Made some good breaks. Can't really tell with Italy and NZ, good start for us, but Italy was out of it after 10 mins. |

The Yanks could be the dark horse this year..... but the Poms were pretty shitt, really shit. the tv camera kept going to Johnny in the stands, like a cry for help. ROFL he can't help you fronm there.
The US could win the whole bloody thing and it wouldn't matter, no one in Yankland would give a shit because they don't wear crash helmets. |

England are just so fucking slow
You look at New Zealand and Australia, they pass quickly, they get the game moving as much as possible and they play smart kicks into space, Do England do any of these things? Do they fuck. They think they can drag themselves to victories like they did 4 years ago, and its just not gonna happen. South Africa are going to turn them over on Friday and the Aussies will embarrass them in the Quarter Finals. |
