[QUOTE="Nubiwan, post: 922842, member: 43441"] Well, not quite. If you are going to quote me, then do it right. What I did say was. [B][U]"The Irish have the unfortunate task of taking the perfect game they played yesterday, and reproducing it consistently,in other matches."[/U][/B] as New Zealand have shown they can do for half the century, that I have been watching them. I would say those players that stood in for the missing Lions were hardly missed on yesterday's evidence. Honestly thought you would struggle without Murray, but the young lad at 9 had a great game. To say Ireland were not close to perfect yesterday, in all positions, is to discredit them. I remember back in the mid 70's thinking the Welsh the best side in World rugby with the players at their disposal. And in Britain they were, but the ABs have dominated World Rugby for near on a century. The best Welsh teams of the mid 70s, could not be replicated by that nation. These were the points i was making in the above post. The fact I thought Ireland put on a perfect performance rather reflected their overall dominance of the worlds best rugby side. I could have easily said they played great, or above themselves. Ergo, "symantIcs". Out of curiosity, how many of us had a large slice of money on an Irish win yesterday, regardless of whether or not you thought they could or would win. I say very few. [/QUOTE]
