Rugby World Cup 2023/ Crochet & Knitting chit chat

262

We were down Payne, O’Connell, Sexton, POM and O’Brien. I can live with 2015.

The last real annoying feeling watching Ireland was that year. I could live with 2019 too, we were past a cycle. 2011 reminds me of this year’s Champions Cup final for Leinster, such a waste.

All the top lads probably have that

In fairness, Sarries era nearly won them the world cup. If it was my money, Billy, Mako, Maro, Owen were elite; probably aren’t really now. Saracens were
oooft, did Leinster hard on the way down when fined. England probably shouldve won the last world cup, they were 4/6 for the final.

Wales in 2011 still somehow stands out as one of the most disappointing defeats in Irish rugby history.

With the personnel there. It was such an opportunity lost.

No , they honestly don’t. Most of them are really pleasant. Cipriani was nice too, but just exuded an aura of menace. He’s bigger that you’d imagine. Bright lad also, but just something ever so slightly off. Genuinely the best I’ve ever seen though.

He seemed to have bother everywhere he went for sure

He didn’t have much trouble at Sale (for him), but one of the coaching staff said “I’d love to give him a slap sometimes”

We put the boot into Farrell’s family (whilst defending our own playmaker’s right to call the referee a cheat).

Who defended sexton abusing the ref?

As bad an ad as I’ve seen since that one of Sexton parading a vacant grin around Mace.

Aussies will do fuck all if this lad doesn’t sort out his kicking

Faz had only picked 18 Leinster guys in his World Cup squad. Could regret that.

Big Stu lucky to make it.

You’d have to say Gatty will have it all to do to handle the shitshow he’s inherited in Wales. An honourable man, you’d wonder has he taken on too much on this occasion though.

Didn’t 15 Greco Roman wrestlers aka the Georgian rugby team beat the principality last year in Cardiff?
