    It was men v boys.

    New Zealand were just a joy to watch. What a team. The Tournament starts now with all good teams left

    The moaning and hoping we would be beaten started at nine this morning. Before the match

    Outrageous. Seems some people just don’t want england to stroll into the final.

    The downside is that there will at least a mimimum three day post mortem into what happened. I expect that the band wagon jumpers like Marian Finucane and Ivan Yates will ensure that this is discussed every 5 minutes until at least Tuesday evening.

    The upside is that once the pretend rugger bugger idiots stop talking through their gickbag we will be able to go back to ignoring the most boring sport ever invented.

    May be some unrealistic expectations (like beating Georgia) but I don’t think they’re overrated. The real similarities are in defensive focus / lack of passing ability

    Good time for Irish people to stop pretending to like and understand rugby, tbh.

    Plenty of us play it as well as follow it so like and understand it just fine.

    Rugby team ranked 4/30, soccer team ranked 28/210, funnily both exactly in the same position percentage wise as being in the top 13.33%, so maybe the media might start being a bit more positive about the soccer team and being a bit(alot)less positive about the rugby team, had enough of joe molloy and off the ball crew every night talking about rugby for an hour with the past 4 years, they might change up the programme a bit now, only so much of keith wood and brian o driscoll a man can listen to.

    There was a photo of lots of Irish fans in the stadium during the Scotland or Japan game and someone captioned it:




    'spot your landlord'.

    That is funny but to the OP a landlord and property developer aren't the same thing.

    In Gaelic football, really? I think an international tournament would be a good idea, would help the GAA grow to a global audience. Australia, GB and USA wouldn't disgrace themselves Id imagine

    The last time I saw a beating like that it sparked major riots in LA.

    Ironically they were All Blacks too.

    Yes they are awful but they do manage to punch above our weight on occasion, they beat the world champions only a few years ago and we barely have our own league ffs

    Gaelic football and not hurling. Established and run by basques that have a bit of a grá for irish culture

    Somebody had to lose, why not Ireland. Well done New Zealand.
    What is a joke is having to fly in a lawyer for Aki's hearing, only for him to get suspended anyway. And fly in another rugby player when one of the other players hurt their neck, I thought they would've brought some subs with them to Japan? A pure waste of money spent by IRFU

    We 'should' hand out a few remote controls. :)

    That's all you need folks...switch it off* if it is making you so miserable...:)

    *might not cure the complaint though.

    There's a peculiar type of vindictive glee some angry blokes seem to reserve for losses suffered by the Irish rugby team.

    Real neurotic type of stuff.
