Ali Price in for Ben White on Saturday
A big mistake IMO. Hope he proves me wrong but we need someone to keep a quick pace on Saturday - not one of Price's strong points.Quote:

Ireland's winning run has got to end some time. Don't see why it can't be us that does it. You can't be confident but we're not as big an underdog as the bookies and most pundits think.
Battle of the Anthems coming up
The Italy coach is like the dying replicant in Blade Runner.
I fully expect us to lose tonight: but dear Lord im already nervous.
Samoa England game very watchable
Farrell taking too long on an easy pen and missing the shot clock. Incredibly poor. Funny.Quote:

I’m not into rugby but there’s nowt else on so watching. The Knick on that prevented the Samoan try. He did t knock it on did he? Yes there’s no doubt he touched it but it was the England players ( either of them ) that knocked it in wasnt it? Also at the end of the half the clock had ticked over the 40 as the ball was in the air but not over the line yet they played on. Curious game.Quote:

George Horne would have been a better pick at scrum half. Toonie seems to prefer bringing him on as an impact sub but we really could do with his pace from the start tonight.Quote:

or, if not a hammering it will be glorious failure
I've really no idea but the Irish seem to be a tad overconfident so hopefully it will be a case of pride before the almighty fall.Quote:

Need to get a grip of the lineouts, they've been poor so far, such a waste of possession in good territory.
Hopefully we'll get an easier group in 4 years time. Getting gubbed here.
Done.
