Can't find a thread so thought I'd start one nice and early for some pre chat.

Really don't think either England or Wales are going to get out of the pool rounds 🙁

Poor Hansen. At least he was fit enough to start the match. Hope it's just a knock to the older injury and not something worse.

Sexton is 38! Impressive to still be playing at such a high level.

@KnickerlessParsons
If you kick the ball from your own half (50m) line and it bounces inside the opposition 22m before going off the pitch then you keep the line-out.

That's quite a hairstyle on Ireland's 1.

Bo Derek springs to mind.

Oh come on, Codie Taylor. Stupid thing to do. Suspect that will lose us the match.

GrouchyKiwi · 14/10/2023 21:31

What is with all the terrible hair?! ABs new prop has quite the look too..

50/22 is another rule pinched from rugby league, like the goal-line drop-outs. But in league it's 40/20, so a bit harder.

That how we all look. 😀

I’m sitting at home grooming my mullet as we speak.

Great contest.

GrouchyKiwi · 14/10/2023 21:51

That amazing last stretch of play I was hiding behind the sofa. Literally.

Amazing finish to the match. Thanks, Ireland, for being so good.

I can breathe now.

What's a 50 22?

I was wondering that too

Hard luck Ireland. Well played NZ.

I'm heartbroken. If this Irish team can't make it past the QFs will any Irish team?

Theoldwoman · 14/10/2023 22:30

Absolutely stoked!

Two from two for me!

Great games of rugby.

I thought they were amazing, Eng, Fiji, SA and I dare say Argentina were lucky not to meet them in the quarters.

Wakemeuuuup · 14/10/2023 23:05

I agree, such a shame

GrouchyKiwi · 14/10/2023 23:06

Yes, the draw really messed things up. It is a shame indeed.

Weepingwillows12 · 15/10/2023 00:12

I genuinely thought we were looking at a northern hemisphere dominated semi finals with Ireland eventual winners. The one game I thought would go other way possibly was France boks. Now it's just back to southern hemisphere as always. It's a shame.

Weepingwillows12 · 15/10/2023 00:13

Or maybe France and England will do well. Will try not to be so negative sorry

LadyEloise1 · 15/10/2023 00:40

Sadbut a good game, well fought.
