<p>I agree with this, but I'm the first to admit it's due to my own experiences, which many others won't have experienced. That being an Irish Mafia in HK who were on the whole, a bunch of idiots, and the reaction from many of them after being knocked out in 2007.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Just about all Irish I've met since then though, have been bloody lovely. So I've had to rescind that view somewhat. They are still a mafia though.</p>

<p>Someone here had the misfortune to be seated with them at the 2007 q final and they apparently behaved like utter piston wristed gibbons even though the game didn't involve their team. A dribbling arseclown posted here last year and said we deserved it because of what happened to BOD, that was news to me and I guess everyone else here.</p> -

Sickening arrogance from Jones<br>

Good to see him given credit for 2007 there too. -
I found it a bit odd that all of the questions were about the All Blacks when their 3 match tour is against the Wallabies, who knocked England out of the RWC on their way to the final. Beating the Wallabies at home is going to be a fucking huge test for them.

<p>well the ABs are Everest for England right now, and they aint got enough Sherpas :)</p>

<p>"Sickening arrogance"? Bit much jeg<br><br>
But i tend to think he's setting himself up to fail a bit.<br><br>

<p>Twas a joke, he said "can we beat the all blacks? We can't now ,but we will". Not often you see a coach that honest, good on him.</p> -

Oh ok. Sorry dude.<br><br>
Get it now.<br><br>
Still think he's setting the bar high ... under promise over deliver and all that (going the other way can set expectation a little high) -
<p>Au Contraire Blackadder, those scars from 03 run deep
Singapore and Hong Kong were unpleasant colonial outposts to be in those days</p>

<p>Just joshing mate ;)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Having a nasty little Aussie coach has provided us with an easy comeback if the days become dark and confused again...</p> -

<p>The question was from TV3's Tova O'Brien. It was cringe-fucking-worthy.</p> -

<p>I recognised her voice on the press conference footage. No fucking clue about sport obviously. A more pertinent question would have been to ask Jones how he thinks England will go on their upcoming tour of Aust. </p> -
<p>I would try and give her an out by pointing out that often TV reporters in one town are sent questions by another reporter at the other end of the country/world to ask on their behalf. But seeing as she presented the whole piece, I'd suggest it was all her own work - perhaps with some editorial guidance from Auckland. Or perhaps not.</p>

- Yeah, yeah Eddie, Australia tour, win, whatever, but what about the All Blacks, will you beat them?<br><br>
- Well not now, but maybe in the future. <br><br>
So England are now going to Slam the All Blacks?!! Thanks Eddie.

Forget the All Blacks and forget the rugby, will Eddie sing the national anthem vs OZ?
