I’ve no interest in the championship next week now. Even if we do win it, it’s tarnished by the fact we lost to England, who will take huge confidence from beating the supposedly “best team in the world”. What a spoilt brat I’m guessing you are mid 30s and have no recollection of the 90s Because if...

Also, we’ve a huge issue at Loose Head. Porter is a liability in the scrum and we don’t seem to have anyone coming through. Furlong also a liability in the scrum. This loss hopefully will bring everybody back down to reality that we are an average team when our attack is shut down, which all teams w...

I just can’t get over how poor some of our players are yet they’re still getting picked. Surely this is Murray’s last 6N. He is so passed it. POM the same. So frustrating.

bw245

Murray, Beirne, Doris, POM, Furlong, Porter so POOR. We were way too cocky. England did their HW and watched how NZ beat us in the 1/4 final.

bw245

POM doesn’t deserve to come back on. Idiotic.

bw245

We all knew England were going to be good…

bw245

Looks like they’ve all been out on the piss. Very poor from this Irish side.

bw245

What’s the issue with the scrum? Is it Porter? It’s the one area where we were awful. I just don’t have a clue what the issue is…

bw245

The performance by Lucu at 9 must come close to the mediocrity of Bergamasco infamous game against the Poms. He was downright pathetic, cost the French any sort of momentum, and kicks poorly It is going to be a tough year without Dupont Surely the forwards have to take some of the blame. Lucu was p...

James Ryan knows he’s now a bench player. McCarthy is unbelievable.

bw245

Pundits going on as if Crowley has never played in green before. He’s been involved in big games before. I’m not worried about him. I still think France will win though.

bw245

I still feel such sadness after Saturday. When will it end? Can’t imagine how the players are feeling. I wonder will it make us hungrier than ever for success in the new year? Hard to even think about that right now.

bw245

This one hurts a lot. Just so hard to fathom that Argentina and very possibly England are going to be in a World Cup semi final and we’re not. The draw is so unfair. Still though, we were not good enough to win and if we didn’t have this curse hanging over us then maybe we could accept the loss bett...

it took me about a week to finally get tickets...it sucked. But I did switch to my IPAD and did not have as many timeouts...and got lucky. WHatever comes up just buy them...if you pause you are doomed Anytime I get in to buy them and click purchase it comes up that someone else is buying them. I’ll...

Has anyone had any success getting resale tickets on the official World Cup site? Trying since last night to get QF tickets but every time I get in someone beats me to the tickets. Am I wasting my time?

Thanks Doc.

Literally just stating my opinion

He seems like the type of guy to bounce back quickly. But I've always wanted to be a doc, so you're welcome

bw245

Calf issue for Hansen... I still give him every chance of playing next week.

bw245

Anyone have any idea how I can get tickets? Will tickets pop up online during the week? https://tickets.rugbyworldcup.com/en Just keep refreshing. There'll be people who can't travel after all and tickets will pop up. Just be sure to be logged in as much as possible. Right now it says there are tic...

HiA, passed it and came back but just said he didn't feel right so came off.

Keet vs NZ

Keet didn’t take part in the warmup. Stockdale vs NZ. Lovely

bw245

Anyone know what happened Hansen?

bw245

Pathetic decision. Poor Italians.

bw245

Did the South Africans not just defend our lineout and read our calls really well? I don’t think Kelleher was as bad as people are making out.

bw245

Anyone else think Bealham is ahead of Furlong now? I mean both are very good but Bealham looks like he has more energy or something. Furlong constantly looks wrecked

don’t blame him.

bw245

Without getting ahead of myself I would be nervous playing the Boks in a final. Hopefully france beat them so if we do get there we avoid them.

bw245

Already biting my tongue at everyone saying we didn’t deserve it, we were outmuscled, physically dominated, Boks left 15points out there etc… so annoying. How many did they actually leave out there? Was it actually 15 points? We still won. We’re not getting ahead of ourselves but we won the match by...

bw245

One good lineout showing in our last 6 games. Got out of jail tonight, we're winning no world cup with that mess and the Scotland outcome is no certainty either. Not true. Lineout was good vs Tonga. We also have 3 different hookers throwing interchangeably. It’s not perfect but SA read our calls ve...

bw245

Boks missed lots of kicks but Ireland went to the corner multiple times with no result when they could’ve gone and successfully kicked 3 points. There is nothing between Ireland and South Africa. They are the two best teams in the world. Ireland won today and as an Irish fan I’m delighted, but could...

bw245

Should’ve gone 7-1 split. I knew it!!

bw245

This has been the longest day ever

bw245

SA beat NZ in Twickenham with Libbok at 10. He’s a great player, just not the best goal kicker. I think what is making me nervous is that we haven’t faced really challenging opposition since France in the 6N so we don’t have a huge idea of where we are. I know the performance against Tonga was good ...

bw245

We lose, the main thing is we don't ship too many injuries and that it's not a blowout. It's not fatal. I really want us to win though, it'd be huge psychologically. I do have this weird feeling SA are just going to come out the blocks and stun us with two quick tries or something. This. Hit the na...

bw245

I felt confident at the start of the week too but now I feel nervous. I am looking forward to seeing what we’ve got up our sleeve. Just hope we’re able to execute it.

bw245

Starting to get nervous now. How’s everyone feeling?

bw245

Watching Nienaber’s press conference. He’s very likeable. Unlike Erasmus.

bw245

I thought they’d go 6-2 so I’m a little surprised even though it was expected. They’re going to maul us to death and attack our breakdown. What is Farrell’s game plan going to be? Do we go with what we did against the French in the 6N? Do we just play super fast for 80 mins, keeping ball in play as ...

bw245

What’s the SA penalty count like? I’m imagining we’ll kick to the corner unless it’s an easy 3 pointer and try and force them into ill discipline while also getting all of their 15 forwards making huge amount of tackles?? Who knows. I’m nervous.
