[QUOTE="Jakedood, post: 759531, member: 72409"] No I'm saying we had a fantastic bench, and a highly disciplined team that would've made it difficult for the French regardless, though fatigue could be an issue, but the French weren't creating much anyway, and if it was continuing as a forwards based game, given the way ireland performed I still think they COULD have won, not would but could have. And I know I'm not, by we i mean the general rugby community. Inherently, the word "we" signifies I am not just speaking about myself. All I'm expressing is my opinion on it, so no need to get nasty here. Murder no, it would've changed the game, yes, but I still believe we could have won. And no not murder, I think yellow card would be fair because of the provocation. Same thing happened Scotland v Samoa with the stamp, Scottish blindside could've been sent off, in fact it was probably much worse than the punch, but he got yellow! Probably, but if an Irishman provoked it, I'd call him a dumbass. O'Brien was stupid for reacting like that, but I can understand why he's done it, not saying it was right, but walk in his shoes a bit and it becomes less shocking [/QUOTE]
