Where Ireland can beat the Kiwis

Pretty much every commentator backing the kiwis for a 15+ win... and agree... that could well evenutate...

But..... as for this rugby supporter I think Ireland are even chance to win this... provided refs dont interfere in the wrong places...

Ireland's best chance of upsetting this kiwi team is similar to boks game style in the past 2+ years...

Bascially, bully and bash their forward pack... a lot of the big kiwis like to pick on the smaller guys but go missing when met with players who match or dominate them physically... Savea & Dane Coles appear to be an example of these types...  

Kiwis biggest weakpoint is undoubtedly Mounga at 10... he reflects the frailty of many a cousy bro over the years that play well when team is dominant (and lets face it usually his team is)... but put him under a bit of pressure with big loose forwards running at him and he will crumble.

Anyway go Ireland grind out the win!!

Ideally wobs win for a SF next week...

Pressure, as we know, does strange things......has the knack of wobbling the best

I'm putting money on Ireland.

Tomorrow's match will be two things. 1) surprising and 2) the most controversial we've seen at this WC.

The ABs will claim a few penalties in the first ten mins but the whistle will go against them for the rest of the game. 

Owens is going to blow them up for things they usually get away with and if that's not enough we are going to see some strange calls for offside, off the ball incidents and 50/50s going Ireland's way.

Post match talks will be dominated by discussions about Owens the "normally very good ref that had a shocking day today".

Here's hoping it doesn't turn out that way and we can just have a great match to watch many times over.

It might be a lot simpler than that, I personally think the game is going to be won in the first 30 minutes because the ABs have shown themselves to be slow starters. The Irish would need to lift though knowing that the ABs won't lie down until the final whistle.

You lot would not the first thing about NZ Rugby.............

Redsman - YOU ARE A HORRIBLE HORRIBLE CREATURE - HIDE BEHIND YOUR COMPUTER AND USE THOSE WORDS - Totally insulting and totally mis-informed.

Remember 3 weeks ago - The Boks went full on to win the first game - What happened - They finished a very poor second.

The Kiwi's know what is hanging on this game.

Plum would not know the bottom end of a rugby ball I am afraid.

Go Ireland ...

Linda, shave your beard please. 

It's unbecoming.

Last I heard it was supposed to rain for this game and that will favor the Irish. I think the ABs will win it but this will be no pushover. ABs by 7.

hows Rugby L's form..? 

You claim Im hiding behind a computer.... lol.... you idiotic moron....

How are you not hiding when you dont even post from your normal login...?

In nearly 9yrs on this site I've never pretended to be anyone other than my imperfect self...? (starting posting prior to the 2011 RWC... use to be a sa rugby site... where I often traded barbs with numerous kiwis but we kept it real by at least sticking to our normal logins.)

You however, are a total and complete and utter fraud and failure in life clearly as you you don't even have enough balls / ovaries to post from your normal login......

Anyway seems a fair bit of anguish coming from you over a very civil post I put forward.... pressure must be on for you....lol .... 

you sad specimen...

GOOOOOO IRELAND!!!!

Looking forward to my donations flowing to charity..!!!

Irish make a very good call re kiwi values... endorsing domestice violence hey...??

Imagine the incidence of the egg cooking dramas tonight if irish do beat the odds.... sad that a fijian winger with ties to ireland with domestice violence charges starts for the ABs.... hopefully bit of justice prevails...  

So amped for this game.

Been watching some I v Nz replays to warm up.

Told a good few Euro pals that never watch rugby, to tune in.

Potentially the game of th e WC so far.

Please rugby gods, let's not talk about the ref after.

Oh dear it seems that as far as rugby nous goes  some "idiot savants " are just idiots I guess .Man theres enough egg dripping off faces to feed all the worlds hungry i reckon.
