Expect a much bigger win than France achieved, anything less will be poor.

Earls has done more so far in this game than Lukewarm has done since July.

If Zebo's defence was as good as his ball in hand game, he would be world class. The guy is a prodigious talent.

Indeed - probably a closer link between Russ and the Irish traveller community, than between the average rugby supporting Romanian and the Romany gypsies.Rooster wrote:They really don't like the gyppos tag, totally different race of people.Spiffsson wrote:Even if we do get humped in the scrum, Ireland should be able to run the poor old gyppos off their feet in loose play, especially after the short turn around time.

Highly amusing to think of Russ, UAFC's third most English loving poster, descended from Traaaaaaaaaavlers.
NEVER MOVE ON. Years on, I cannot ever watch Ireland with anything but indifference, I continue to wish for the imminent death of Donal Spring, the FIRFUC's executioner of Wee Paddy & Wee Stu, and I hate the FIRFUCs with undiminished passion.
Re: Team for Romania
I must be one of those. Hugely surprised if I'm not in first place. Unlike Russ though there's no travellers in my ancestry. More like Brian Boru for me. Another great man of County Clare agus an Árd Rí na hEireann.Once a Knight wrote:

Re: Team for Romania
Was the attendance close to 90k? That's phenomenal numbers for such a game. From what I've seen, all the stadia have looked pretty much full so hats off to the organisers.

It won't be beaten for a while. None of the stadiums in Japan hold that many people and of the bidders for 2023 (France, Ireland, Italy, South Africa), I think only South Africa has a 90k+ stadium.Cap'n Grumpy wrote:89,267againstthehead wrote:Was the attendance close to 90k?

Re: Team for Romania
Can someone tell that Noel from One Direction or his Kn0bhead mates that no one in the Hilton hotel bar at Wembley actually gave a flying feck who he is.
Just as tip- if you don`t want to be recognised in public don`t go in a post match packed hotel bar wearing a baseball cap and dark sunglasses and surround your self with an entourage.

Re: Team for Romania
Indeed a chara. Dear old Brian declared Armagh as the religious capital of Ireland which of course meant a lot more then that it would now. If he could see the sort of right langers that inhabit that fine county these days I'd say he'd shed a few tears.Once a Knight wrote:

Re: Team for Romania
I'm glad to say I wouldn't know one of these guys if he was sitting beside me. Pop stars in general are such bores. Indeed all people full of their importance are bores. It is amusing in some ways to see folk who think we care about them. Like children they crave attention.
