No such thing as a curse bud, and if players believe in that sort of thing you’d seriously question them. The only common denominator in all the QF defeats is Ireland not turning up

We've played THIS bad, and are only 8 down so far. We really need to get it together and have a good second half. Beating ourselves here.

Final pass on that last angle of the try replay looked quite flat.. I’d like to see it again.

Hopefully it's a yellow card for New Zealand.

How can you kick for the corner with no confidence in the line out now, taking the points is obvious for this one, so limiting though.
edit: changed his mind after the yellow

I still wouldn't bet against us. It might just be that the ABs have had a great first half.

If we had a lineout I'd say go for the corner and take advantage of New Zealand's 14 men.
Big risk that we're actually going for maul.

Going to the line out the way our line out has been is either brave or foolish, we'll find out in afew minutes.

I'll take 1 point down for Ireland if we get a try before this half is over.
