Don't know why, there are **** all Munster players out there.



Alive aliveooooooo, alive aliveooooooooo.

Why would that matter, it's a Connacht song afterall, and there's plenty of Connachtmen in this squad.

**** Yeah! I thought he was going to allow that scrum.
 
****ing fantastic result. This is some squad of players, beating the French in France, South Africa in South Africa. Quality.
 
Pity it's England next after tham being able to rest some key players. This may be what keeps us level with the senior side unlikely to do much.

In other news Argentina beat France.

While that was a fantastic Irish performance that I enjoyed watching immensely, if you make that many boneheaded errors, we will punish you, for unlike the Boks we actually have a backline worth shat.

Credit to Hanrahan, just grew and grew after a shaky start.

I know I still have nightmares of Watson. In fairness that wasn't that bad a backline for South African I think Draggs and Eze would be quiet happy for Jordaan to start for the Sharks, Jantjies isn't half bad and Mbovane scored a hatrick vs us last year and has from what I've heard been good on the 7's circuit.
 
Just saw the result, actually cannot believe it....what happened?

You remember how Ireland went and beat Australia last year by blasting into every ruck like it was their last before defending like demons? That, basically.

To clarify - the players may have talent, but not with that coach they don't! I'm sure an Irishman is familiar with this scenario... :p #theyseemetrollin
 
Some really, really impressive performances by the Irish players. When I saw three Super Rugby starters in the Baby Bok tight five, and even though Tadhg Furlong and Iain Henderson were well hyped, I thought Ireland would come off a distant second best. Furlong had no trouble dealing with Steven Kitschoff and Henderson was the best second row on the park. Des Merrey and Niall Scannell played above themselves and Tadhg Beirne showed some real class. The backrow did the basics very well and disrupted a ton of ball. Kieran Marmion finally looked a player at scrum half and JJ Hanrahan ran the show at 10. Outside that, the backs didn't do very much.

For the Boks, the two scrum halves were desperately poor as was Paul Jordaan. Pieter Steph du Toit looks destined for greater things. The fullback Dillyn Leyds was dangerous and Jan Serfontein is a very powerful player. Also, there's no way Shaun Adendorff is under the age of 35!
