I’m on that as part of a small triple.
Namibia played on Saturday. Wednesday is a quick turnaround.
It’s Samoa’s first game. They are better than Fiji and Fiji beat Namibia by 25.
Georgia +20 and Tonga -3 are the others
Ha ha, like the look of your Georgia bet Mac. The underdogs are covering most of the handicaps and its the Georgians first game they will be farting fire.
Where did you get Tonga - 3, SJ were -4 for a while. Can only get -6 now myself.
You have to be the biggest creep to ever grace this board. I bet you play tag rugby
+1
he makes my skin crawl
PP alternative handicap
15 Rob Kearney, 14 Tommy Bowe, 13 Brian O’Driscoll, 12, Gordon D’Arcy, 11 Keith Earls, 10 Jonathan Sexton, 9 Eoin Reddan, 1 Cian Healy, 2 Rory Best, 3 Mike Ross, 4 Donncha O’Callaghan, 5 Paul O’Connell, 6 Stephen Ferris, 7 Sean O’Brien, 8 Jamie Heaslip
Replacements: 16 Jerry Flannery, 17 Tom Court, 18 Donnacha Ryan, 19 Denis Leamy, 20 Conor Murray, 21 Ronan O’Gara, 22 Andrew Trimble
Mixed feelings about that selection. Happy Kidney has gone for backrow though I would have gone for Ferris at 7. Pleased too that he has kept Sexton there. This was team I predicted earlier in the week I think. Disappointing thing is though I’d say Kidney could have picked this team a fair time ago. No real consideration for form. Exclusion of Trimble is very hard to take. What more could he have done to get into team I don’t know. What more D’arcy needs to do to be dropped I also don’t know. Here is hoping he proves me wrong on Saturday.
Trimble is robbed. Terrible decision. Cannot see the logic at all. No issue with Leinster halves but they should have started together bit more in build up. Best needs to play well or I’d have him off after 20, played well the last day but no test of his dartsb
Andrew Sheridan out of WC big loss to England
Thanks I taught it was the normal handicap, was just looking for a bit of it.
What are you raving about, i was asking a genuine question, i couldn’t find it anywhere and asked cluaindiuic, who kindly told me where to get it. Do like butting in on everything, some type of internet hobby for you.
I have the same, but i suppose i couldn’t really argue with the pack. Best deserves another chance really. I hope the backrow don’t play to the numbers on their back. Ferris and SOB are out 2 best ball carriers, it should be left to Heaslip to compete on the ground, but i doubt that will happen. Pocock could have a field day. No problem with Reddan at 9 either, Sexton has to up his game and shouldn’t get 60 min to do it. I wouldn’t have gone for Kearney at full back. I hope he is told not to kick the ball as much and play the percentages properly. Trimble can feel very hard done by and Darcy must be riding Kidneys daughter, or son whatever takes his fancy.
Very, very disappointed with Eoin Reddan’s inclusion.
Creep!! I bet your a fan of John Hopoate , you brown fingered freak.
Scotland’s lack of cutting edge ensuring Georgia are always in the game.
Georgia’s flawless handling in wet conditions is quite impressive
Eoin Reddan and Johnny Sexton will drive Ireland to victory this weekend, mark my words.
Boyles handicap double paid nearly 3/1.
Think Samoa might have been the first favourite to beat the handicap in the tournament.
There was ONE linebreak in the entire Scottish Georgia game.
Disappointing selection for me.
I really hoped he’d be brave enough to call time on D’Arcy but leaving Trimble on the bench is unjustifiable. Kev will defend that call with some favourable comments about Earls (who I think is very talented) but it’s galling to see the player who has probably played best over the autumn and has put together a few months of good form not selected.
Think the half backs are the correct call and as unsettling as Kearney has been in the past year or so I don’t think Murphy has done enough to get the place, plus his tackling is always a concern.
Like others I don’t have any issues with the pack - it fairly picks itself.
On the O’Gara points earlier - I don’t have an issue with his “bravery” or the fact he puts himself on the line. But I don’t think he’s an aggressive defender and that leads to him not pushing up the line with his centres as well as Sexton does. Obviously Sexton is better at the actual act of tackling but against an inventive backline like Australia it’s vital that the outhalf can apply pressure to their backs and I don’t think O’Gara is confident enough to do that.
Carter is out of the NZ Japan game on Friday after pulling up in training with back spasms.
You would do well to find an Aussie that gives a fuck. Game is fostered by exclusive private schools.
In saying that, I’ll watch the game at the weekend. The last time I saw the green giants play against NZ last year, they were a disgrace. Thankfully that creep O’Gara isn’t playing. His uncle thought me in school. He was a cunt too.
I think you lot are looking at an embarrassing hiding.
seriously?
