[QUOTE="LukeFitzgerald, post: 762657, member: 73469"] Ok sorry, completely forgot about that miss. Yeah I know there's no way to prove/disprove that but I still think we'd have too much for you guys. Your lineout capitulated yesterday. I think we had close to 100% success rate. Many of our power plays come from lineout moves. Toner and POC are key to our maul defense and attack which is where we generate a lot of penalties and trys. Having SOB come around the corner on 2nd phase ball after a gainline crash ball from Henshaw in the centre after a speedy lineout would allow us to get deep into your territory and pile on the pressure. SOB, POM, POC and Payne, along with Heaslip and Best would cause you guys major problems in the breakdown. Sexton with front foot ball would hammer yous. Fitzgerald tore you guys up during his cameo and if he had a legitimate 13 who could put him into space and fix defenders, he could damage your defense big time. Having an actual, genuine defensive unit would have suffocated your attack. In no way am I saying that you guys got lucky or had the ref with you etc, you fully deserved your victory for the most part but there were major factors outside of Ireland's control that swung in your favour and with your ridiculously talented attacking threats and ambition, we couldn't cope with you. Well done and I am 100% supporting you guys for the rest of the tournament. Your fans were insane during the match. [/QUOTE]
