    Their team is mostly saffers and south Sea islanders. They're worse than an English cricket team.

    Tackler doesn’t roll - not a chance Gardner does a thing about it

    Is there any Japanese players on the pitch? Looks like a South African and Pacific Islands XI. Farcical.

    Only seems to have become an issue since we went behind

    I thought you Irish boys loved the importing players system ? It’s a problem now is it ?

    Nah. Japan are just a ball of cramp now, a couple of power plays and we're golden.

    My concern is putting together a 23 for 5 days time.

    How could Gardner know he didn't release it. There were at least two Japanese not rolling away to let him see the Irish lad.

    True that and if we have notions of winning the cup we need to be able to play any group of players.

    Line out not straight

    We should defend our way of life to an extent that any attempt on it is crushed, so that any adversary will never make such an attempt in the future.

    We're the number 1 team in the world. If we cant beat the rejects from South Africa and the Pacific Islands that couldnt get into their own home nations.....

    They're 4 points ahead on the verge of another massive upset. They won't run out steam. We need to show why we're ranked 1st in these last 15

    This is all very 2002 world cup. Home nation getting a lot of leeway and warnings at most. Opposition pinged immediately.

    It compounds how poor we've been
