DickEmery posted:Has everyone forgotten that New Zealand choked the poo poo out of every World Cup outside of New Zealand? I don't think this NZ side will choke. They might possibly be beaten on the night by a team that finds it within themselves to rise above their level, but it will not be NZ playing badly. This team has a huge amount of experience and have been through the whole cycle of losing and then winning the world cup. They remind me of the Australian cricket team of Warne, McGrath, Gilchrist, etc. (though, admittedly there are fewer cunts in this ABs team than the Aussie cricket team, still, Savea). I suspect (and hope) that once this generation of players retires or cashes in (Carter, Nonu, C Smith, McCaw), there'll be a (relatively) big drop in results, even though at face value, NZ are still churning out the best quality players. There's more to winning this consistently than just playing quality.

Ireland - Jared Payne ruled out of World Cup with foot injury Fuuuuuuck

Woodcock is out of the tournament too, with a hamstring tear that rules him out for at least three weeks. Joe Moody has been called up as his replacement.

This is the time I've seen ITV pay literally any attention to Scotland, and now they've gone all-out, with sob-story video packages and constant references to THIS BRITISH TEAM UP AGAINST THE MIGHTY SAMOA. I think they're now officially 'The Backup Plan' for the English media.

My backup plan certainly. Samoa are contriving to out-Scotland them, which is quite impressive

We've been loving shite but somehow only three points behind. Will two bonus points be enough to get through?

"he did his best" who gives a gently caress he shouldn't have been there. I hate the inconsistency between refs.
