      Personally I think this is Foster’s final and he will be largely be remembered on the result of this game. If he wins I don’t think it matters whether we win the WRC, a large part of the community will forgive him if we beat the current world number one team. Fail and the fucker will face a tsunami of shit.

      Ireland have power and strength across the park, however genuine speed and skill can still beat them. We certainly have a team that can beat them but we just can’t be sucked into throwing it around from anywhere.

      Territory and accurately aggressive forward play will put us in the best position to exploit this. Make errors in our own half and we’re likely going to be fucked.

      Thanks to previous results and the myriad of learnings surely the players realise this too, the last time the players fed off the hate, they pulled off a big win in SA to save Foster, time to unbottle some of the feelings from the last loss and create the upset

        Reasons I hate the Irish
        O'Mahony and Sexton are whiney mouthy cockheads
        The fucking carry on after every little thing that goes their way
        Zombies is the worst song of the 90s
        BOD and his victimhood
        James Lowe - Chiefs (53 caps)
        Jamison Gibson-Park (Hurricanes 13 caps, Blues 30 caps)
        Bundee Aki - Chiefs (25 caps)
        Mack Hansen - Brumbies (21 caps)

        Obstruction
        Ruck shenanigans
        Farrell is a low breed league player and Owen's dads

        I hope we destroy another set of Irish dreams

        You mean doesn’t go their way right? Curiously does Hawkes Bay have a large Irish heritage?

          Nah I'm talking the fist pumps and crowd gestures for knock ons and bullshit

          Calm down champ

          And it's their poached wingers and English coach who are the worst culprits

            A real rugby fan is someone who knows all the nationalities of the Irish national team and coaching staff

                      Reasons to like the Irish

                      Won a test series in NZ
                      Have won 17 games in a row beating all the top teams.
                      Took average Super Rugby players and made them great international players.
                      Built a team rather than relying on individual talent.
                      Innovative attack that walks the obstruction line but gets away with it.
                      Amazing discipline.
                      Excellent defence.
                      Excellent structure and plan.
                      A coach that knows what he is doing.

                          I actually this has enormous merit. Bringing the super experienced Sam's on to finish when the whips are cracking.

                          But I think Cane will start, and I hope that means Paps comes on absolutely fizzing

                          We simply cannot let them continue to recycle phase after phase no matter who is selected

                                  If we are nervous we are screwed.
                                  Calm, direct and conservative.
                                  Don't get suckered into high risk passing.

                                    Up the guts, earn the right to go wide. Kick intelligently, chase with purpose. Kick your goals. Minimise mistakes. Strong set piece. Play with 15 players. Eat weetbix for breakfast. Make your tackles. Soak up dad's tears.

                                      @Bones said in RWC QF: All Blacks v Ireland:

                                      Up the guts, earn the right to go wide. Kick intelligently, chase with purpose. Kick your goals. Minimise mistakes. Strong set piece. Play with 15 players. Eat weetbix for breakfast. Make your tackles. Soak up dad's tears.

                                      See, is that really so complicated? Get Foster on the hotline!
