What a game! Ireland showing why they are world No 1. Guinness will be drunk tonight. Well done
Regardless of what happens in the next few weeks, we’ve finally shown up at a World Cup. What a display of guts
im going to own shares in Guinness tonight
Enjoy
I’ve not commented on this thread yet, I’m a rugby fan but I’m not an expert. I’ve just watched probably the best match I’ve ever seen.
Congratulations Ireland you were awesome

That was off the scale. Two great teams competing at the highest level, the occasion, the stadium and the fans creating a fantastic atmosphere. Well done Ireland.
At times it lacked quality but the intensity was unbelievable
The two rugby threads have been merged as it was getting a bit confusing having two threads running concurrently. The RWC thread has been merged into the original 'Rugby' thread. I will change the name into 'The Rugby World Cup Thread' and revert it back to the original when the tournament finishes.

Wow !! What a game, that was brutal. Superb win for Ireland, even with some uncharacteristic lineout errors in the first half. Boks had their chances but missed kicks and lineout errors of their own cost them dearly late on. That was one proper game, and wouldn't be surprised if these two meet again in the final, especially with Dupont out for the French. Well done to the Irish , enjoy the night lads

Looking at the SA try again the final pass goes forward about 4 meters yet it's not a forward pass......
Another rule I don't understand like handball and offside in football....

The ball will always drift in the air
As long as the ball leaves the hand backwards
I have that written on my hand when I’m watching rugby, along with ‘the scrum is a cosmic mystery, don’t question it’ (though I thought the ref handled it very well tonight)
I think there is a lot more to come from Ireland, this wasn’t a England v All Blacks one off like at the last World Cup, more a statement of intent, we will scrap with the toughest.
Get drinking mate.
I did tell you that this Irish team was far superior to your previous World Cup teams, not necessarily in terms of talent but definitely in mentality !
