    Hansen is a dead cert genius, I never would've even considered these gems...

    Hansen also looked at the technical side of the match and revealed what his plan would be for overcoming the Irishmen.

    “If we want to beat Ireland, we’ve got to be able to take them on up front, contest at lineout time, make our scrum really potent and challenge them there,” he said.

    “We need to go through the breakdown as they’re not putting anybody in the breakdown themselves, so go through it rather than go wide.

    “Once we go through it and start narrowing them up a bit, we can go wide.”

      I am sure Fozzie as HC would have Seniority over the donut pile.

      Someone should tell Ryan then

      Fuck me.

      Looks like one of those fat wannabe whales masquerading as tourists we get Newquay beach in the summer. Needs more tats though.

        The good news is Frizell, All Blacks captain Sam Cane, starting tighthead prop Tyrel Lomax and second five Jordie Barrett appear on-course to return from their respective injuries to play their first matches at this World Cup in the pivotal pool game against Italy in Lyon next week

                Betting dollars to donuts i.e. you are so confident you are right that you bet real money versus (worth less) donuts

                  In other words, play like we did against Sth Africa in July.

                    Our best performance of the year was when Foster took a holiday and Schmidt or the players ran things. Ironically, saving his job.

                      Thought that was Ireland 1.

                      Mind you, I've drunk so much in the last 2-3 years to forget the losses I'm probably getting thngs mixed up.

                                      Yes. Kade Poki is second from the left IIRC.

                                        An indictment of the shitness of the Canes is that only Taylor actually played for them.

                                        Weird seeing Whitelock not look like he's 40, he must have aged like crazy between that pic being taken and first class rugby.

                                          @Nepia you're wrong, Crosswell played for the Canes aswell.
