Pakman was at Dublin 1991, Ellis Park 1995, Twickenham 1999, Sydney 2003 and Cardiff 2007. He's watching on Sky.
Irish have no chance.
Just in case, I hope you will be sitting in an appropriate spot to enjoy the match

@Snowy's house? Don't go to Snowy's house.

This is quality.
Side that has no knockout wins thinks NZ are mentally weak. Lads, you're 12 years too late.

That was such a painful read. They even pulled out the whole Beaver-penalty-not-really-going-over-in-2011 thing.

@voodoo said in RWC: All Blacks v Ireland (QF2):
Jeez boys, a lot of WE did this, WE didn't do that, the ref blah blah. Not much credit for anything the oppo did.
The thing is, that wasn't a very good French team. It didn't play particularly well before that game, nor after.
That's why it hurts so much more than other losses, where the opponents we lost to were actually better than us.

Yeah. Generally don't mind when we're beaten by a better team on the day - they deserve to win and be congratulated.
It's when we play like pistonwristedgibbons and lose that I want to start kicking things.

I know, right! Like we've got World Rugby and the refs in our pocket.
So that's why we win; financial and political clout.

Ah, OK. Blame the 4th glass of Romanian Pinot

Have you taken up @Snowy's pastime? Sounds like England vs Australia will be short one official.

Yeah, thinking England 2012 - I was at the club and didn't take that one bad at all, we got outplayed well and truly. Plus when I said we're gonna lose a pom piped up with a bet that he'd get a silver fern tattooed next to the wallaby on his arm (from another bet). I must follow up on that...

Nah, @Snowy is sweet. I've been in his basement since 2007. The food is pretty crap but the Wi-Fi is all-time.

My only fond memory of 2007 was walking back to the car thru Cardiff and seeing a drunk twat in an England shirt, taunting any Kiwi he could find, getting decked by a Saffa fan.

What do you mean? We got the hurricane in so we could have an extra weeks break in the build up to the knock out stages.
Just how far do we need to go to make some of you lot believe?

So did I . It’s Ireland based isn’t it? I guess in all the excitement they reverted to type. Tomorrow’s article will either be about the haka or poaching
