RWC: All Blacks v Ireland (QF2)
-
ROB HERRING IS set to join Ireland’s World Cup squad in Japan to replace the injured Sean Cronin.
The42 understands that Ulster hooker Herring will join Joe Schmidt’s group in Tokyo tomorrow ahead of Saturday’s World Cup quarter-final against the All Blacks.
It’s believed that Leinster man Cronin was injured at Ireland training this week.

Reposting this excellent vid from an outstanding young Irish teen Youtuber/film maker about his experience at and around the 2018 Dublin test and what it meant to him as a passionate fan of the game. Its well worth a look.

Feel like it could be a very busy day for our backrow - Cane needs to get the better of Van der Flop and make sure he can't flop all over our ball. Savea needs to increase his chat and get in Nige's ear before his opposite number, Peter O'Moan-ey. Similarly, Read needs to win the running metres battle over his opposite, CJ Sub-Standard.
What about Sexytoes, Past-his-best, Grindshaw and Ring a Rosey? Surely they get a look in?
I prefer Conor Slurry and Jonny Sexoffender
Sextoy.

Really want Aussie to get up for this one Perth-style, think England will be a tough SF opponent (if we beat Ire) if they're high on confidence from winning well.
I just want all our Southern neighbors to beat the UK teams. And of course I think we have a better chance against Aus than England. I'd love to see them pull out a Perth game.
What about Ireland? You didn't mention them.....just the UK teams....🤔

He may allow the game to flow more ,open running rugby will suit us down to the ground obviously,
They want a stop start borefest, but they can’t say that , it sounds too negative and against what is good for the game
Stop start borefest? Was the game in Dublin last November a borefest? Ignoring the outcome of the result, I think any rugby fan would have thought that was a great game to watch.
The closeness of the score kept it interesting ,
the way you guys play , is different to how we like to see the game played ,holding onto the ball for long peroids without actually doing too much variation wise with it, most kiwis find it boring and frustrating ,and i think the players do too ,
it wins you games , its worked against us in recent times , so good luck to you , we hope to beat you by playing more fast open running rugby, you guys will more than likely try to prevent that happening by bringing the ball back into the trenches , not sure how it will all go , i guess we will find out,
Which is what the comments were based on , different game styles , apologies if you find it offensive

I think it's a given that Ireland will be packing their bags in a few days.

Jeez - you're on a kiwi site, bud. Unless the game was won by 20+ points with NZ pulling away in second gear, it's never a good game, let alone a great one...
Haha very true. How are you feeling about our chances?
I have NZ 13-20 on at the bookies.

So he wants Owens to ref the breakdown. Does that mean he wants him to stop Ireland trying to slow the ball down on the deck? 🤔

oh, my sides! Ireland are worried about NZ playing Owens??? FFS
I know its posturing but it's a bit disrespectful towards one of the top refs in the world

To be fair, the Ireland rugby team also represents Northern Ireland don't they? So double fail.

Yeah they do , on the South Africa for 2023 rwc thread Poulsen kept claiming that Ireland was too small and some of the games would have to be held in the Uk - he meant Northern Ireland.
I think the Scots voted against Ireland getting hosting rights too , before this World Cup I would have thought there was probably a good reason . After the events of the past fortnight I’m going to assume it’s becausd the SRU are fluffybunnies.
