Re: Ireland Pool 2019 RWC
Ireland, what are we like.
Here we are all sh:tting it over a game against Russia in the RWC.
I suppose the clue is in those last three letters.
As Sir Alex Ferguson would say in his pre-match.
"Lads it's Russia"
Enjoy the adrenaline rush.
Oh and C'mon Ireland.
Edit: actually that wouldn't be a bad team talk for Joe to use.
Perhaps the Mirror might have a word.
Don't all groan together, they might hear you in Japan, get the wrong impression and think we're worried.

will be interesting at noon to see if Ross Byrne is named to start tomorrow night v Ospreys or if he's being held back for a possible trip to Japan.neill_m wrote:Carbery out injured (ankle), Murray on bench.
Re: Ireland Pool 2019 RWC
Team already named, probably to avoid the Ireland game. Byrne is starting. Carbery injury not serious apparently.Barry wrote:will be interesting at noon to see if Ross Byrne is named to start tomorrow night v Ospreys or if he's being held back for a possible trip to Japan.neill_m wrote:Carbery out injured (ankle), Murray on bench.

Cooney is the replacement they should call up. Place kicker, scrum-half / out-half and in form.

Jordi ribs busted. Deegan has the flexibility to be next man called up but has never been in Schmidt squad, so Tommy O'Donnell?

Re: Ireland Pool 2019 RWC
Why? Because you think he is better than Deegan? Has he been in Ireland squads? He can also play across the BRmildlyinterested wrote:Jack O'Donoghue

Has been in ireland squads and is more experienced. Told JOD was next in line if another 8 got injured.backrower8 wrote:Why? Because you think he is better than Deegan? Has he been in Ireland squads? He can also play across the BRmildlyinterested wrote:Jack O'Donoghue

Re: Ireland Pool 2019 RWC
We need another openside. Stander, Beirne &Rhyss can cover No 8. TO'D for me, was in initial Squad and will know basic patterns. Can't be anybody who hasn't been in Camp. Jack O'D could also be an option but not enough of a groundhog IMO.backrower8 wrote:Jordi ribs busted.

This has been very uninspiring so far, pressure on to get bonus point now

Re: Ireland Pool 2019 RWC
Garces didnt give much of an advantage there, should have been a yellow for the Russian too

Re: Ireland Pool 2019 RWC
We were pretty atrocious again.
Russia offered nothing and never really looked like doing much but we made so, so many errors.
Ruddock is a man who to me could have a big impact for us. Kilcoyne again showed his excellent form too.
Sexton looked energised when he was on too and thought Luke had a good game.
