How well do you think Irelands rugby team will do?

Question

How well will they do in the RBS 6Nations and this summers World Cup??????????????????????

Answer 1

Probably Grand Slam Champs in 6 nations and it depends where they meet the All Blacks in the World Cup.

Answer 2

They are firing on all cylinders at the moment, if they keep this up they will do very well and good luck to them!

Answer 3

Think the Crooke Park (where Ireland are Playing this year) surface will take heavy casualties and Ireland may have problems adapting if they get injuries.

Answer 4

yeah well south africa and australia are waiting for their revenge.we cant wait to have another go but this time with our FULL strength side.

Answer 5

I think Ireland have a very exciting rugby team at the moment.  They have a formidable pack of forwards with the like of Paul O'Connell and Macolm O'Kelly and I think they have one of the best half back partnerships in the world in Peter Stringer and Ronan O'Gara.  Their centres are also world class, particularly Brian O'Driscoll.  The whole back division is very exciting to watch and it was nice to see some exciting youngsters being blooded in the Autumn internationals, and who could well force their way into the squad for the World Cup.

Yes, I think Ireland can look forward to a bright future with the strength and depth they have in their squad and I would certainly think they are very hot favourites to win the RBS Six Nations.  As far as the World Cup is concerned, I think they could well get to the business end of the tournament.  I saw them against Australia and I thought they were absolutely awesome.  Of course, it could be said that Australia suffered because of the weather, but it was the same weather for both teams and I thought Ireland's patience and ball retention was magnificent.

It might be stretching it too far to say that they will win it or get to the final, but I think they could get third place in the playoff.  The hot favourites for the World Cup have got to be the All Blacks.  They look unbeatable at the moment.

All the best!

Answer 6

they'll conquer the world!!!

Answer 7

FABULOUS!!!!  I hope they win!!!   I think they are a great team and a really nice bunch of lads too!  Ireland hasn't won it in ages - it is their turn!!!  BOD Rocks!!!

p.s.  these comments are from a Scot.  I know I should support my own, but I think the Ireland team are cool!

Answer 8

no there rubbish.

Answer 9

They are looking pretty good at the moment, starting to find some strength in depth which has always been their downfall. I can see them winning the 6 nations with ease and hopefully they'll do well in the WC. As long as they don't beat Scotland I'm happy.

I'd love to see them beat the All Blacks. Well actually I'd love to see anyone beat the all blacks, I live in auckland and it's horrible how much the commentators and supporters are getting over arrogant at their team, believing that they are unbeatable. We'll see. I think they might bottle the world cup - again!!

Answer 10

they are playing well. the question should be will the refs let the win or will the have to play

Answer 11

AS regards the six nations my money will be on them to win. Semi's of the world cup.
