hadn't seen this. Just look at this Irishman speak with sheer arrogance like he's English. Hey uh,
Ulsterdude, buddy...uhmm...do you think it's ever, ever a good idea to talk about Ireland VS France's record ?? In any circumstances whatsoever ?? And especially with that sarcastic tone there like Ireland's unbeatable or smt ?!
You've asked for this, not my initiative:

So how about a bit of humility here. Ireland may have a new all Oceanic coaching team now that's teaching them how to play the sport of Rugby and all, and the province system is working fine, but easy on the edgy tone there. Ireland has only started its fine Joe Schmidt era and one 6N ***le alone is a little thin to start bragging about Ireland's invincibility there, yeah ?? Yeah.
I didn't want to say this, but considering Ireland's woeful record at the RWC, nothing's been done yet and they have absolutely everything to prove yet. They were looking great in 2006-2007 beating Australia and South Africa comprehensively and SMASHING England, and then proceeded to getting smashed by France at the RWC and beaten big by Argentina failing to make the 1/4F even.
