  • what a fucking try. Like to see NZ do that

  • France score tries like this every match they play. Not saying its not a good try, but France run better support lines and have more fluid play

  • Such a wonderful finish from the man. Legendary rugby player, no doubt one of the best

  • Forward Pass?

  • AUSTRALIA STILL WON :D!

  • @BeauMac01 then australia lost to munster :L a club team in ireland :L and im 100% sure we will destroy u in the RWC :D im sure bod will score an even better try than this 1 as u have no centre that can match him in ur team nor on any other team in the world :D

  • @dadubs93 yeah that was 4 years ago... on recent form we hammered england in our last game and i go on recent form

  • @reyjay07 On recent form we barely beat Samoa in November, barely beat Italy, lost to Wales and played poorly throughout the whole tournament.

    However ive watched enough rugby in my time to know that the team were clearly trying to fix a new gameplan and it just wasnt clicking up until the England game. I dont believe it was a one off, just that the England factor helped the team click, and they should progress from that.

    I watch S15 rugby too, and trust me, do not underestimate Australia.

  • @dadubs93 yeah i think ireland has great dept in their squad jona lomu says theere his fav to win it! its good were playing france twice,england and scotland next monet :) yeah australia are good :) didnt they lose to samoa tho? i didnt watch the match

  • @reyjay07 Yep but Samoa have a seriously underestimated team. Not sure what happened there though, looked like a mix of underestimating Samoa and seriously poor communication. It was after all there first game in a while, us irish are seriously rusty in our first games - we barely beat italy thanks to ROG's drop goal a few months back!

    I dont like our warm up games, theyre necessary but if we lose them, knowing Ireland, it will shake our psychology and i fear another 2007.

  • @dadubs93 yea i like samoa they have huge backs..

    i cant see 2007 happening again and if it did i think id be so upset for the likes of bod,poc and rog..

  • Ireland v Australia in NZ in September 2011 is set to be a classic !!! Sweet Jesus may ireland win !!

  • This was actually offside, both the chaser that caught the ball and the right hand winger were way in front of the kicker.

  • @BroomeBlocker4 well spotted

  • this STILL make me throw my fists up in excitment!

  • its good to see that some of us irish and some aussies arent trying to rip eachothers throats out.good luck to the aussies in the future,,,,the only team in the tri nations who arent ignorant about their strength in world rugby

  • o'driscoll is sublime. and why didnt the brits go to aus and leave the shit heads behind to have a prison colony in the uk...we will never know. maybe coz they re dumb?

  • Robbie Deans looks a brilliant coach. Seems to be timing he Aussies run for the WC to perfection. Especially since NZ have some kind of genetic commitment to losing to them at the worst possible time.

  • what was the final score

  • who saw those dudes kissing each other! woooo

  • hes sick u know

  • 2008 irbp try of the year next 2009 player of the year bod rocks

  • haha why's there always big arguements on these videos, Oz are a good team and Ireland are a good team , no use bitching over something like that

  • finally someone reasonable

  • @GaryTss Oz are better !

  • @cadet58085 why because you occasionally get compared to NZ ?

  • roll on november!!

  • why is this video called Brian O'Driscoll vs Australia when he didn't even do nothing special???

  • because he scored the try obviously.

  • even props score trys and you don't see anyone writting John Hayes vs England etc etc...

    IMO if the video is named o'driscoll vs Austraila it should need at least one or two sidestep from the man himself + this is rugby, not football. No one can score tries just one there own ( exept Lomu : ) )

  • what the fuck do you want him to write then

  • I really don't care that much,i was just thinking why the hype for something not even that special.

    You, one the other hand, need to grow up.

  • your the one writing pointless messages

  • The try won an award for IRB international try of the year. Maybe O'Driscoll's contribution in particular wasn't magic, but the whole move was pretty slick. And as the man says, you've got to identify it somehow and the scorer is the natural name to put on it.

    Wouldn't make much sense to call it the "Tommy Bowe made the most individual yards in this move try".

  • Don't get me wrong, its a great move and a great try and O'Driscoll is really good.

    i just don't get why one man gets the hype for a brilliant team effort. i just expected to see same type of try he made against australia in 2001 with Lions.

    "IRB international try of the year 2008" would make a great name for the clip ;)

  • Check out all of this guys videos...they are all of tries and they are all called by the name of the player who scored the try and the team it was against...i.e. D'Arcy v Munster, Fitzgerald v Munster or O'Driscoll v Munster..........don't get so worked up. The reason there's so much hype by the way is that he is the greatest player of all time to play for Ireland bar none and the best centre in the world...possibly ever...so, he gets some hype...

  • @farz3450 Brian O'Driscoll needs credit for grounding the ball at such a bad angle!

  • btw 15/12/53

    What a joke!!

    :)

  • Gud finish by o'driscoll

  • 0:28..what a cheating little twat Giteau is trying to tackle O Driscoll without the ball.

  • What a git

  • Lets be perfectly honest with eachother here. Southern hemisphere rugby is streaks ahead of Northern hemisphere rugby and has been for a long time. The Super 14 is by far the most competitive club tournament in world rugby. 5 out 6 world cups have been won by Southern hemisphere teams. And finally, the Springboks, All Blacks and Wallabies all have winning records against every northern hemisphere team.

    As far as I'm concerned, it is comprehensively one-sided. It shouldnt even be up for debate.

  • The Super 14 is not a club tournament, it is a representative tournament

  • Comment removed

  • Yes it is., because it is representative and not club, it makes the Heineken Cup the most competitive CLUB tournament in the world.

  • Semantics. Dismissed.

  • No, you're ignoring the facts.

  • Ever heard of football, it's the northern hemisphere 1st sport. Whereas southern hemisphere countries can find it easy to make the youth play rugby, it is different in Northern Hemisphere. So yes you are streaks ahead, due to your high population and the fact that rugby is the no1 sport in all countries. However rugby is growing in our lightly populated countries and so very soon we will be at equal levels. But until then enjoy the silverware you have and don't be worried by our increasing skill

  • we wont coz u aint increasing shit!!

  • OH and by the way I'm Irish not english. In Ireland there are 5 million. 2.5 million of them are males. Our main sport is football so 500,000 i would say play that. Our second sport is GAA and i would say 500,000 play that. Also rugby is not popular really in the countryside so that takes away about 1 million. So really we only have a choice of 500,000! Yet we still have the best ever rugby player of all time and the best no.8 today.

  • You just lost all credibility. Clearly making up figures. Why dont you do yourself a favour and google which country has the most registered rugby players. The answer is England. But dont take my word for it, google it. There are more professional rugby players in England than any other country. And South Africa, New Zealand and Australia play Soccer, Cricket, Rugby, Hockey, Athletics, Swimming. So for your own sake, rather do some research before you make statments about other countries!

  • irish rugby player #s is 111000...nz rugby player #s is 139000...irish population 5mil...nz population 4mil...undisputed facts...your *opinion* of having the best ever rugby player...hmm...he mustnt be that great if the Irish win/loss % vs NZ is 0%... thats also an undisputed fact... ive got facts coming out my ears if u want em...another 1 is last 2 losing lions tours...Irish leaders..fact...ireland never made a WC semifinal and struggle to get out of pool stage most tourneys...another fact

  • Ur an idiot if you think one amazing player can win a game for a team.

  • yep...ill give u 3 names...jonah lomu...johnny wilkinson...daniel carter... they win games singlehandedly...wtf does BOD do?...whinge when he gets tackled?

  • Holy crap do you live on YouTube, i just left that comment. I'm sorry but i will never believe that one player can lead his team single handedly to victory against one of the top 3 countries in the world. Thats an absolute absurd comment. And by the way he(as you so disrespectfully put it) "whinges" because he is injury prone and physicality hurts him more than it used to. I know this because i go on holiday with the god every 2 years.

  • keith wood was a hooker not #8 dipshit..carter SINGLEHANDEDLY has won numerous games vs TOP opponents...eg 2nd test vs lions...grandslam tour vs france... vs aus and sa in tri nations...hes the best player in the world without doubt...BOD lucky to be in the top 10...he had his chance to shine vs SA and did nothing...just like his last lions tour

  • Typing mistake dick-head. Say what you want but no player wins singlehandedly and they would say that themselves if asked. Like i said it is my opinion that O'Drsicoll is the best player to ever play the sport. Seriously i hope your wearing a maxi-pad if it's that time of the month you angry little knobhead

  • jonah lomu killed aussie and sa...and so does daniel carter...SINGLEHANDEDLY...if u ever watched a ledisloe or a tri nations game u would see it too u idiot irish leprechaun

  • U do know its bledisloe!?!??!?! not ledisloe!!!!!

    LOL

  • o no!...a spelling error!...i must be shot!

  • Its ok son, we all forgive u,ur a Kiwi! havent got much up stairs have u!

  • *we* all forgive u...or is it just *you*..seems like youre on a solo journey here cardiff...also boyo...let me remind u that the only reason the welsh have been winning a few matches up north the last few years isnt cause of your players...its KIWIS like Graham Henry and Steve Hanson thats made u better...cause youve definately got no talent or skills up there

  • LMAO

    Ok son if thats what u want 2 think u can think it :)

  • Comment removed

  • Yes whereas England has 60 million people they also play soccer,cricket,and tennis very competitively so that means that at least 20 million of that 60 play soccer, about 5 million play cricket, about 5 million play tennis and about 20 million don't play sport at all. Which leaves about 10 million to do other sports such as rugby, which as u would have to guess only 3-4 million people play. Whereas New Zealand however feeds their youth rugby and tells them how important it is. So there you go!

  • Oh, and nobody cares that youre from Ireland. Again, the issue here is rugby in the whole of the Northern hemisphere, versus rugby in the whole of the Southern hemisphere. And the bottom line is the Southern hemisphere is streaks ahead of the north. Thats it. Over. You lose.

    You are now dismissed.

  • Again you are wrong. Rugby is your first sport! that means it is the sport your country cares most about. And obviously England has a higher count of registered players you daft knob, it's because they have a higher population. If they have the highest population out of every other country they are always going to have more registered rugby players. In France the country cares about football, same in Italy and same in Ireland. It is all to do with facilities,pride and popularity. That is fact.

  • just for the record you do NOT nor have ever in the last 20yrs since rugby has been made professional have u ever had the best player in the world...and just for the record the 2 names which come to mind (Keith Wood,BOD)...they are NOT the best players...they were possibly the best NH players,possibly the best in their positions in the world at 1 stage or another...early 2000s BOD was possibly the worlds best centre...not now though...thats a fact...wood wasnt better than kearns and fitzpatrick

  • In my opinion BOD is the best player in the world. Yes he is not as physical as Mortlock, or as fast as most other centres in SH but he has an unarguable ability to read the game better than anyone else in the sport. As for Keith Wood i also believe he was the best NO.8 at his time but not the best overall player. I believe that at the moment NZ have the best no.10,no.2 and obviously no.7. Possibly the best second-row but that would be my opinion.I don't think BOD gets enough respect.

  • stop talking, you're just making a bigger cunt of yourself each time

  • ummm...no

  • We actualli skool u half the time at cricket and ur shit at tennis.... and well football, nice clubs but ahhh they are imported players. Your national side is up to fuk all these days. Your whole country is up to fuk all. Everyone is too busy auditioning for jeremy kyle ahahaha

  • Like i said..........I'm not British.

  • Well said bud

  • roco was CRAP all year...really bad...he struggled to make it in the auckland domestic squad...but as soon as he chane to play for NZ he plays out of his skin...then we cant dump him...McCaw a freak...him and DC....thats how i personally judge NH players...how they perform against us

  • ggg

  • i disagree with some of your comments...I see all of NZ players game via domostic comp then S14 then all our international games...whereas im guessing someone like yourself would only see NZ play when its against your home nation...i judge ALL players on how they perform against NZ...cause if u make an impression vs us u are the REAL DEAL...williams has NEVER done anything vs us...EVER...mils was OUTSTANDING last year...best fullback in the world easy...NZ had 100% record last yr when he played

  • brian o driscoll going on form this year is front runner for wpoty

  • 45 seconds....cyco bitch with a painted face ...weirdo

  • check out every all black game of 08 and every wlsh game of 08...compare carter, mccaw, rococoko, muliana`s form compared to shane williams...he USED to be nothing and when isaw him last 2 grand slam tours he had got better...but NOT WPOTY better...not even close!

  • Can't compare Williams to McCaw. One's a flanker t'other is a winger.

    Muliaina? He's a competent player, but I wouldn't say he's better than Williams.

    Carter exudes class. One of the best backs around at the moment.

    And Rokocoko? Under-rated. However, him and Carter are better than Williams.

    Oh and I disagree with this comment. It doesn't do Williams justice.

    "...even when williams is RED-HOT he aint even CLOSE to McCaw and Carter! "

  • 2007 carter was WPOTY...2008 shane williams was WPOTY..which is the biggest joke ever!...richie mccaw was a shoe-in for WPOTY 08...but i think the northern IRB fatcats dont like to show the south dominating too much...if it had to goto a northern(even though mccaw way EASY...or even mils muliana was SUPERB!)i wish it went to someone like POC...shane williams SERIOUSLY would struggle to make a NZ S14 team...maybe otago highlanders

  • ya williams has had a rubbish season, lucky to make the Lions - BUT, he is class, just wait till the tour ends to judge him (no player of the year fair point). Also, it sucks that mccaw didnt get it. If a NH player is getting it this year it's BOD. I'm a MUnster fan so i'd prefer POC to get it, but O'Driscolls been phenomenal - him and rocky.

  • the whole IRB process was a JOKE for WPOTY...theyre trying to sell us the fact that the 5 best players in the world were 2 welshmen an italian a scotsman and 1 NZer..that NZ player being 1 Daniel Carter...NO SOUTH AFRICAN! nominated...No Australian..No Irishman...No Richie McCaw...someone go BOMB that IRB embassy in Dublin!...Ill pay u a sack of potatoes and 3 pints of guiness

  • That's a bit disrespectful man.

  • you fucking racist cunt! act you age

  • THIS year (2009) Shane Williams hasn't been good at all, but he was incredible in 2008.

    Top try scorer in the 6 nations and got a couple of beauties away in South Africa, putting even Bryan habana in his arse (search Williams vs South Africa on youtube).

    McCaw was good in 2008, but not at his brilliant best.

  • yes...thats what im saying...even an AVERAGELY good season from McCaw is better than a top season from shane williams...if hes the worlds top player joe rococoko wouldnt have made him look average in cardiff...and allegedly roco isnt even a good player (according to the IRB otherwise he woulda been nominated also!)..joe rococoko would kill off shane williams!..daniel carter on an aerage yr is better than williams!...even when williams is RED-HOT he aint even CLOSE to McCaw and Carter!

  • i personally didnt see anything with that BOD tackle..then...or even now!...maybe as a show of good faith PERHAPS 2weeks was warranted...but it wasnt a dirty dog blingshot hit or anything...thats what the media tried to potrait it as...iB is a fool yes...u come up with good points for/against with a good attitude...ireland is on the rise...which is good for u....u are the 1 nation we like up north...

  • LOL and why are there always kiwis watching videos on youtube, titled 'Brian O' Driscoll'?

    Keep dreaming.

  • i dont watch the vids...i come here for 1 reason...there all full of irishguys who kiwi bash to try n make themselves feel like ireland are a top team..but youre all blind...i like u guys...but u need a reality check.u need to win for a few yrs solidly before u get respect from the south.this isnt an attack on you or irelanid.its just a fact..ever since rugby has been professional the south has dominated rankings.when the north shows some home/away consistancy over a few yrs we will show respect

  • I personally am irish and i am blind and i do think ireland are gods gift to the rugby world...nah ony joking...i know the kiwis are dominant at the moment....wait until u c the autumn internationals...ive got a good feeling this year

  • ****also uve mention before that the talent up north is *slim pickings*...eg eng/scot low on talent...u think thats y theres been 2 irish capts?*****

    2006 Lions tour - Who were World Champions??? - England. What Nationality was the Lions Coach - English.

    Who was chosen as Lions captain ???? an IRISHMAN

    LMAO your attempt fails.....

  • ireland has a higher population than NZ..NZ has 4mil...ireland 5mil...the OFFICIAL union players for ireland is 110000...NZ has 130000...so the player #s are similiar...thats got nothing to do with the fact its your #1 or #10 sport...and u have $ to burn!...AND u get the most funding by the IRB cause its based in ireland!...ah...its a hard pill to swallow isnt it...so what youre letting me is the last 2 capt have been irishmen...yet uve been SMASHED...nice arguement...makes sence...

  • The last time the Lions won a test match down south was against Australia. The Lions were carried to victory by a 21 year old irishman who embarrased the world champions defense.... Can you guess who it is?? Its your favourite player... the guy kiwis could only dream of having in their team.

    Again your point fails..... Try again.

  • and whataya know...u lost the series...dream of having BOD?..im happy enough with having frank bunce before...and Ma`a Nonu now...thx mate...u can have him...its very obvious you need all u can get

  • ireland has a population of 4.2 million actually...and in fairness the last irshman who was captain of the lions was o driscoll and his campagin was cut short by the most dicpicible tackle ive ever seen at international level...by a couple of bone idle kiwis....dont get me wrong they where/are both fantastic players but theres not atlot going on between there ears...and i no that this is the second of your comments ive replied to...dont worry im not singling u out ;)

  • thats why it dont matter what country u are in in the world...if someone makes a *joke*...its the IRISH that are the butt of the joke

  • Hes the only player in the world that would walk into an AB, SA or Australian team...

    Fuk Conrad Smith and Fourie overrated priks. BOD has dominated rugby at outside centre since he was 20.

  • yep...hes a great player...frank bunce and sterling mortlock would give him a run for his $...but I think id still have BOD edge them out...Keith wood was a fantastic irishman too...but besides those 2 ive found most other irish players *average*

  • Only two players... maybe that has something to do with the fact that rugby is the fourth sport in Ireland, a country with a population of under 5 million.......

  • yep...nz only has 4mil...and i do realise rugby is ranked 4th sport in ireland...thx

  • yes...besides BOD...who else has europe got?...talent is *pretty lean* up there atm...riki flutey was an NPC player in NZ...and now hes a British and Irish Lion...wtf is that!?...i actually cant hink of another player that would *walk in* on a tri-nation team...OConnell is ok...but hes not better than ali williams bakiis botha matfiend or thorn..i was impressed with oconnell on his trip to nz and aus...btw...aussie is slipping abit...they cant play away from home

  • ireland must press for the 3rd ranked team and hold it for a yr or 2

  • First of all I couldnt care what rank Ireland are.... everyones more worried about soccer and golf up here tbh. No profound interest in rugby, but the team seems to be doin all right with its single world class player...... Once they keep beating the welsh in there own back garden, i have no complaints.

    And NZ has 4 million, does that include the 3 or 4 nearby islands? They seem to get a lot of players from them, not quite sure why... but who cares.

  • *3-4nearby islands*...i assume u are refering to fiji/tonga/samoa...95+% of those guys who are of island descent are either born in nz..or were bought to nz before the age of 10...too much poverty in the islands...so we dont *poach* these guys..we train most of them from scratch...unlike in ireland where we train someone up from birth..then ireland steal them (issac boss)..*boss was nzs 10th best #9...yet he is #1 or 2 in ireland...and

  • HAHAHAHAHAAH ISAAC BOSS #1 or #2 in IRELAND hahahahahaha #1 Tomas O' Leary(picked for Lions but now injured), #2 Peter Stringer, #3 Eoin Reddan, #4. Kietley

    ISAAC BOSS lol last time i saw him play was for Ulster reserves lmao, but nice try ;)

  • kietley, is he not an outhalf? i think boss would definately be no.4, maybe you were thinking of frank murphy or something.

  • yeah your right, murphy. Kietley is outhalf. Isaac boss is 4/5th at best, and will never play in a green jersey again, although he did play well for the 8 games he did play...

  • boss = 4th best in ireland..your words not mine...and *he played well in the 8 games he played for ireland*...if he in nz he not in the top 15..lol...BOD..if he in nz he be #1 ..maybe 2...Oconell in nz he would be 3rd or 4th best lock....stringer...he be 10th bestr 9...ogara...he be 6th best #10...most international guys from outside nz who try to play within nz usually start off in 2nd division NPC...they get smashed n cant cut the mustard so they go back home with their tail between their legs

  • Oh and just to remind you WE ARE TALKING ABOUT RUGBY.... the fourth sport here but its the national sport in NZ and you have 20 time the playing pool of proffessional players.

    You guys need to concentrate on winning something while playing your national sport.. what more of an advantage to you guys want LMAO pathetic really.

    Want to argue about Soccer or Golf, the most popular sports in the world?.. No? I thought not, because thats only going to end with one winner lmao and its not NZ.

  • 4th played sport...go to the IRB website...it shows IRELAND has 110thousand rugby players...NZ has 120thousand...eng has over 600k and france 250k...so we have the same amount of people playing rugby...even if it is your 4th sport...I would not be so stupid to argue vs soccer or golf...as NZ is CLEARLY inferior...just as u shouldnt argue with me about NZ rugby...as we are CLEARLY superior

  • your comment of 20times more players...goto the Irb website..they have a section on each rugby nation...their world ranking/players etc...shows how many PLAYERS that union has...u try make it sound like the whole country plays rugby here!...its our FAVOURED sport...u need to research some of your facts before u *shoot from the hip*...yes...also i congrat u for CORRECT and FACTUAL statements of leinster...i take my hat off to them...

  • by the way ive been reading that iBGalaxy guys comments....i would like to say i am not associated with him...(i think hes a crackhead...who doesnt know rugger)

  • LOL

  • i think he's from switzerland, but its embarrassing that he supports ireland

  • *NZ are clearly inferior*, the freaky little maori is catching on. Good lad.

  • i dont mind being called inferior by an irishman...a team thats never beat nz over 100yrs..a team thats never got past 1/4final stage at a WC..a team thats never any threat to nz...when kiwis go watch ABs v ireland in ireland we love it...cause we KNOW we gonna win and u irish love *hitting the turps* like we do...gl in SA...even when u are combined with the other home nations u cant win...last 3 lions tours...winners we ALL SOUTH...thx for playing sunshine

  • You sound like your going to cry, why are you so defensive, have I hurt your feelings?

    The fact of the matter is, NZ will always be better at rugby than Ireland because its your national sport.... but then again Ireland are better than NZ at absolutley everything else LMAO.

    Just keep stealing those islanders, you will win the WC of the sport you guys eat,sleep and breath one day lol.

  • WORLD SPORTS: soccer is your #1 sport...yet u guys hardly ever qualify...#2 sport in the world is basketball...never seen ireland do anything...previous world champs NZ finish fourth...losing to argentina stacked with NBA players only losing by under 5...but this is a rugby debate...goto another BOD site...theres an irishman there whos probably your brother...hes just a NZ basher who thinks the sun shines out of irish rugby...he seems to think munster #1 team in the world

  • well he was within the 1st few 9s for ireland when he arrivred wasnt he :)

  • prime examples: Julian Huxley ie Australia/ACT Brumbies/Queensland Reds..played 2nd div Northland...Martin Johnson..British/Irish Lions/England Wc capt...played 2nd division..Thames Valley...

  • prime examples of what?? LMAO

  • here buddy...im as irish as u but if u think ireland only has one single world class player....u havnt been watching the international games close enough....yes BOD is amazing...blah blah blah...i love him but hes not on his own.

  • joey...NZ proud history for over 100yrs is a home/away combined 84%...they have been dominant for decades...even as an outsider that most be impressive #s...we have a WC curse atm though :)

  • another is rickey flutey...he born n bred nz..played all the age groups...nz maori..NPC and S14...yet now hes a british and *IRISH* lion

  • and BOD isnt that great...hes not a 1man wrecking ball...eg Jonah Lomu...still havent beat NZ

  • if BOD had any semi decent team mates they would beat New Zealand.. but he doesnt mind since he is known as the best centre in world rugby and thats all that matters. Plus when you mention the word RUGBY in america they reply 'O'Driscoll' Dont know what that says about him but they dont even know where New Zealand is lmao.

    Oh and no offence but I think he would rather have the respect of clueless yankees that are offering him millions to play for the Giants, rather than you SH folk down below

  • omg...who the fuck u tryn to kid?...odriscoll is US..BS...its still JONAH LOMU!...he was and still is the most known worldwide rugby player BY A LONG SHOT...odriscoll is good...u would need another 14 like him to have a shot vs us...we are class *across the park*...u are class in less than 3 positions...and just incase u forgot...its a 15man game...well technically being preofessional its a 22 man game...ask yourself this...how many of a 22man irish squad are gamebreakers?..3?..nz maybe 15/22

  • another question...when do u think ireland will pop its cherry vs nz?...u wanna put $ on it too?

  • I like how you highlighted the word IRISH. I think you have realised that half the British and irish Lions are IRISH players. Not their fault that they dominate rugby up here....

    Oh and Riki Flutey I couldnt care less what nationality he is, the welsh coaches picked him because they couldnt find any decent players from the British isles after they had already picked every possible Irish player.

    Again not our fault theres no quality in ENGLAND, WALES and SCOTLAND...

  • yes...for THIS tour perhaps...but as we both know through history the welsh and english have featured the strongest on MOST lions tours...so dont talk yourself up too much..and yes...perhaps to answer your own arguement...u say wal/eng/sco no quality atm...maybe thats why u won the 6nations?

  • England have 60 million people...

  • An irish person has captained the last two tours. Oh and I will remind you that the ratio of rugby players playing in Britain with those playing in Ireland is 250:1...... ARE YOU CATCHING ON??? Your fighting a loosing battle.

    There is absolutely nothing that you can say about Irish rugby that can belittle it. Ranked 4th(smallest playing population in top 10)... Best team in NH this year at International and club level, Grand Slam, Heineken Cup, Magners League(remember our 4th sport!!!!) LOL

  • also uve mention before that the talent up north is *slim pickings*...eg eng/scot low on talent...u think thats y theres been 2 irish capts?

    ARE YOU CATCHING ON???...and another thing about being *professional*...north has 100times more $ than nz thus making it easy to access the most modern equipment/facilities/players/c­oaches...yet ireland still havent got past a quarter final!...and the irish capt from the previous tour didnt last long did he :)..lets see how long this 1 will last

  • LMAO its the fourth sport here, NZ spends 100 times more money on rugby than us lol. NZ national sport ---- Ire 4th sport. ARE YOU CATCHING ON?????

    LMAO how you freaks getting on at soccer and golf??

    Oh yeah and QUARTER FINAL!!!! Im surprised we even get to the world cup... We were the first country ever to get to the QF of a WC with such a small pool of professional players LOL So how is your comment supposed to be a insult lol you kiwis really are a bit slow arent ye....

  • i no im replying, to another one of ur comments but as ive said already wot happened BOD was a disgrace...there shud hav at least been a 2week fuckin suspension....i would like to see wot wud happen if anyone fucks arond with oconnell....ive seen the man in the flesh...hes at least 15ft tall and 5ft wide...he is a brick wall...and might i add the only nort hern player ominate for international player of the year last year...in fairness he lost to *cough* dan carter...but u get my point

  • what a fucking pass from paddy wallace!

  • super team try!!have some of that you skippy cunts!!

  • Maybe if Ireland win a few games against us.

  • Mmmmm, the last time you came to Ireland was on a cold night in November 06 when we beat Australia 21 -6,you boys were moaning about the weather so we but you on a boat j and sent you packing ,just like our ancestors did all those years ago when we shipped all our unwanted convicts to a place called..............Australia!

  • I said a few games - not just the one! Those same unwanted convicts have now built up a nation where the Irish escape, you guessed it, the winter weather. Oh the irony!

  • ha ha ha ha ha true

  • @johnpaul25x , Ireland are a good team at home. BUT away from home they have never beaten Aus, just look at the world cups...same again in 2011 i think. Until ireland can win in the Southern Hempishere they will always struggle to get a world cup

  • @bokson4 . Your wrong. Ireland have beaten Australia (in two tests) in Australia.

  • @spottedowl1299 . Fair enough. I stand corrected. but 1979 being the last time you have won in Aus,isnt a grand record...

  • @johnpaul25x I think you might find it was the English shipping all their convicts to Aust who happened to be..........Irish! Probably says more about the Irish than the Aussies.

    Still winless in Australia since 1979 I see.

  • @079Spartan is a prison record still a prerequisite to get into australia ?

  • bowe could have got that try it didnt look like he needed to pass

  • BOD did fuck all, give the credit to Tommy Bowe, awesome run by him

  • if only he was a few years younger.... he would prob have smoked bowe

  • was more a team effort than an individual.

    great try though

  • tommy bowe could have done thet himself

  • agreed
