[QUOTE="Mr Ruggleby, post: 895268, member: 41553"] "Literally no luck at all" is something that can never be said about any rugby victory ever. Even the bloody ball is designed to bounce erratically! The kick-off is determined by a coin-toss. The contest for an up-and-under is a least partially down to chance. Not to mention the inconsistency in referee interpretation of multiple aspects of the game. Even Sir Lord Highness J Wilkinson The Brave's sweet right-footed deliverance of '03 was the beneficiary of a few droplets. Was the Ireland victory a masterclass in composure and execution under pressure by an excellent team? Absolutely. Was it totally devoid of luck in any form? Absolutely not. What we should really be talking about is how much your win percentage would increase if you added a fourth leaf to that shamrock... [/QUOTE]
