RWC: All Blacks v Ireland (QF2)
-
they were just talking about games under Owens for NZ/Ire on RS
Apparently Ireland have had him 18 times, 3 times v NZ and not won.
We have had him 10 times, lost 3, all v SA

@reprobate out of interest, what does the RM/BB axis have to do to be proven?

Never Change, Shag. I love the way he responds to some of the more facile and inane questions.

He's unflappable. Definitely wheels out his detective mask to put them in their places, its brilliant

@Bovidae Before the SA game Shag and the boys talked about getting in behind to exploit their wings rushing up. Then we did it. I wonder if Shag plans to 'set Joe up'. At least he might have a think about it for a moment or two

Interesting that he specifically says they don't expect an aerial bombardment, double tripple bluff? They'd have to tie Murray's shoe laces together to stop the box kicks!

@Machpants mind games.
Read something yesterday about him joking about setting a trap (or were they)

Now, I've heard it all! Owens will allow the ABs to cheat more.

Kind of a pathetic story.
Any Irish journalist could go online, find some whinging Kiwis fans somewhere, then headline it-

It just cracks me up when other team’s fans carry on about breakdown ‘cheating’ as if their team is Lilly white.

And that's my point. Ireland wants a ref who allows plenty of leeway at the breakdown but have criticised the likes of Gardner who was stricter with players supporting their own bodyweight.

Weather forecast - warm but rainy.
Will Ireland handle it?

It's cold compared to last week and the start of the tourney. I had to wear a long-sleeved jersey to work today for the first time this year, so I imagine the Irish will be loving it compared to earlier. If it is 22 degrees, then that is warmish, but not hot by any means.
