Re: Ireland
I think they're a bit better than us. Just a bit.

Re: Ireland
There’s nothing like a cocky and arrogant Ireland side when they have the thought at the back of their minds that they are going to kick the shite out of an inexperienced and emerging side like Wales.
Gatland has two weeks to get our mindset right. We could yet upset the Irish and we will do far better than the majority of people believe.
Even top teams have off days and this could be the weekend for Ireland have a few things go wrong.

If we had all our missing players back I would agree but as it is, well . . . troubling the Irish would definitely be an upset.

Re: Ireland
Ireland failed to deliver the goods at the RWC.Since then they have beaten two poor teams, so they have nothing to be cocky or arrogant about, and I don't think they are behaving in that way. Coach Farrell has a decent roster of players and has them very well coached and grounded in the tactical approach so that they all know their roles. They will certainly not be taking Wales lightly and will give them every due respect. Any side can beat any other in this competition on any given day (except perhaps poor old Italy). Looking forward to a good game.normanski wrote: ↑Sun Feb 11, 2024 7:03 pm There’s nothing like a cocky and arrogant Ireland side when they have the thought at the back of their minds that they are going to kick the shite out of an inexperienced and emerging side like Wales.
