    The problem is neither Paps or Cane are great from the bench. Both are better starters.

      Anyone expecting Paps to start over Cane is absolutely deluded

        Ireland's defence is incredible.

        8 points conceded vs Boks. nothing conceded vs Scotland until the contest was over.

        I'd have Mo'unga and Beauden practicing drop goals all week.

        Let's George Ford them.

        Keep the scoreboard ticking over.

          it's good, but the Bok numbers are misleading, they left heaps of points out there

            See, it’s with cliches like this that we are destined to win.

            We will only keep the scoreboard ticking over if we play what’s in front of us…

              @ACT-Crusader dont want it to be a game of 2 halves, unless Ireland are good in the 1st and we are gooder in the 2nd...

              Also missed full credit, do they still have ladies in the kitchen?

                        Need to play the full 80 minutes, but also important to score first, as well as just before and after half-time

                        I'd also have a good think about winning the collisions and being solid at set-piece

                              ABs have had so many "learnings" you'd expect a 30-point victory! I know I harp on but it is the exits from the 22 that are going to be crucial. Last night in the Japan and Argies game, it was on the edge for both teams until a "BB-like shit kick" by Japan led to an Argie try and swung the momentum of the game. I will die a little on the inside when (not if...it is every game these days) this happens in the QF.

                                  @Old-Samurai-Jack maybe thats the problem, too many learnings and the messages getting confused.

                                      Leave a certain Blues superfan alone!
