[QUOTE="ozzy, post: 137017"] Sort of shows how different countries approach the sport. The irish seem to do a lot of psyching up for games through aggressive speeches, very different to island and Kiwi sides. Kiwis tend to do there talking on the field and I find it difficult to see a guy like Richie giving that sort of speech. Islanders tend to relax more and horse around a bit have a joke and say lots of prayers. The irish fellows looked like they were getting ready to go to war. Could be wrong though. Would be fascinating to see inside the dressing room of the ABs pre and post match, to see what is said. It's a nice way to see the real personality of the players, rather than the cliche interviews they always give. Would never be done though as they wouldn't allow anything that might potentially harm the ABs image as being family friendly and something kids can aspire to. Thanks for this video it made me glad that I don't play rugby professionally(at least in Ireland). Too much pressure and macho talk for a laid back fellow like myself. :) [/QUOTE]
