Cruzy P, ordinarily I'd agree with that statement, buy the point of this game was that we needed 4 tries, and a 7 point clear lead.

  1. no comment.


  2. rubbish irish rugby players

    "swing looooooooo, sweet chaaaaaaariot..."

  3. what people dont realise is that whoever won the "pool of death" was always going 2 make it 2 the semis having to only play either italy or scotland in the quarters i think ireland ddnt have the right gameplan went for tries 2 early on insted of just establishing a lead nd then the gaps in the defense would have opend up 3 minets into the game you get a penalty infrnt of the posts and you kick to touch thats stupid them game today just showed how dominant southern hemisphere rugby is over the nothern will be an all southern semi finals pool B is the pool of death because the winne of that has two hard games in the quarters than vs the all blacks in the semis but winner of pool d goes on the opposite side of the draw to the abs GOO THE ALL BLACKS!!!

  4. i have been a lifelong supporter of the ireland team, however none of this tournaments team should ever be allowed to wear the hallowed green shirt again.

    not only were they an embarassment to every supporter who paid good money to travel and watch them but they were an embarassment to the nation and also to the game itself.

    i for one have said for a long time that ogara is not fit for the squad, he has squandered to many points to be team kicker, the rest of the team need a massive wake up call.

    in all the only people i feel any sympathy for is the coach osullivan and odriscoll the only two men who actually, passionatley wanted to advance in the tournament.

  5. Headless chickens was the phrase that came to mind. There was plan A for the tournament and when that did not work they realised they had forgotten to make a plan B.

      Who said Fail to prepare...... Prepare to Fail

  6. Not just today........they have played poor throughout the tournament!

    Too much upset and animosity in the Irish camp caused this display..............they need to get it sorted!

  7. Bungling Circus Clowns

  8. clumsy schoolboys

  9. neither, they done their best and were beaten by a better team.  theres no shame in defeat (its obvious i'm a footie fan i hate ireland being beat in football).  my biggest gripe is the english commentator on utv(an itv channel) refered to the irish team as a british team, realized his mistake then called the irish a home nations team.  yeah! is that right were british now.  ****** wouldnt be saying that if o'drisscol was drop kicking them in from all angles against england scotland or wales

  10. I dare you to go up to one and brand them either of the above.

  11. Steady on there, I think Ireland played well. They held their heads up, they knew they probably would`nt beat Argentina but they were`nt thrashed either. IRELAND 15 ARGENTINA 30 Well done boys.

  12. If you think they were just beaten today, see how they'll get thrashed in their next game!

  13. No ,just useless as usual.

  14. bungling circus clowns. it will all come out now hopefully exactly what was going on in the camp. what an anti climax man!!!

  15. Didnt see.Were they that bad?

  16. Hope they are better at gambling than playing rugby.

  17. A lot of credit goes to Argentina,they are the dark horse.They are the form team , they  beat France  and after beating a gallant but sometimes clueless Irish team Argentina finish top of the table.Dnt be too hard on your team Irish supporters it was the pool of death, at least you not sacking your captain...GO ALLBLACKS!!!!!!!!!!! KIA KAHA

  18. Sometimes they were so scared that the began passing the ball backwards and never advancing it, like playing "pass the bomb".
