Corcaigh Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Tuned into after the Man City game. I love a good bottling by the Oirland rugger team, did not disappoint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 great performance from Ireland but New Zealand showed their class in the end. that Sexton miss was always going to be key Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 If we play with that intensity and skill level we'll have a good 6 nations. I don't think it's much about choking or bottle. They did the same to Engerland, and countless other teams over the years. They're like Manure (under Fergie), they keep going for the win until the very last minute and have the quality to do so. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CVByrne Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 I don't think I'll ever get over that. Worst I've ever felt after a match in my life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villaajax Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 I don't think I'll ever get over that. Worst I've ever felt after a match in my life. Cheer up, it's Ireland, there will be worse losses. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fun Factory Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Anyone see the rugby union world cup tickets prices? Some of them are ridiculous! The cheapest ticket for samoa-scotland in 52,000 st james' park is £50, while any England game you have to put down a downpayment for. Some of the early games are not too bad, but I think the RFU are being optmistic at best in the prices and filling these football stadiums in non home nation group matches.

villaajax Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Does anyone else think that the version of the Haka that ends with them putting their hands on their hips is just a bit less threatening than the old one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep it's absolutely disgraceful. Sadly all too predictable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derryvillan Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 Does anyone else think that the version of the Haka that ends with them putting their hands on their hips is just a bit less threatening than the old one? Originally Kapa o pango featured a throat slitting motion at the end which was decided to be a bit 'controversial'.Some players still do it on occasion,prefer good old Ka Mate myself.

JB Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 It was indeed. There is not a player in the world I enjoy watching anywhere near as much as an on his game Quade Cooper. I wish there were more players like him (only with less burglary). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
