[QUOTE="sharkfan, post: 687173, member: 44460"] Take nothing away from a great Irish performance, great commitment and defence throughout. I guess it is true that when another team stands up physically to the Springboks, they don't have a plan B At times the Springboks were just not in the game, I could sense a lack of firepower. It's amazing how they raise their game to beat the Mighty All Blacks but struggle against Ireland, Wales and Argentina. They have to learn to be consistent throughout! And another lackluster performance by our favorite French referree...yep the same guy that sent Bismarck Du Plessis packing with a controversial red card last year. He clearly had Victor Matfield and Jean De Villiers scratching their heads a few times, before sending Adriaan Strauss of with another dubious yellow card which even the Irish commentators though was a bit harsh. I'm sorry but after staying up the whole night to watch this sorry mess, I unfortunately cannot see us beating England...hell I think even the Welsh might sneak one over us. [/QUOTE]
