Yes, a quirk of the draw and ultimately very bad luck to be eliminated on the opening day of the tournament.
Yes itâs been a shite world cup but letâs not forget what Schmidt did in the last couple of years. A grand slam and to go world number 1 for a while was brilliant when it happened.

Some nice talent coming through as well from the 20s

I donât know, something seems iffy.
I think itsâs just that NZ have the right balance between piano pushers and piano players whereas Ireland only have piano pushers.

New Zealandâs piano pushers can also play a bit

Best fans title still up for grabs? Soccer lads usually win it?
