[QUOTE="shtove, post: 142410"] Nah - France will find it hard to outsmart Ireland, but they should do it. They have to - it's their home turf. Maybe they'll just blow up in a panic, and the host nation will exit at the pool stage for the first time ever. We'll know the result 20 mins in to the match. Argentina's failure to stand up in the scrum + their crapiness in the lineout make them a big target for Ireland. Their midfield defence is surprisingly good, but I place my faith in the attack of ROG, BOD and Darcy. So, if each of the three ranked teams in the group wins a big match, it comes down to bonus points and points difference to see who comes top. Conti let France off the hook tonight with that 77 minute penalty miss. And Arg won't be able to match Ireland or France in tries - so Arg fly back to Buenos Aires with their pride intact but their hopes dashed. As the catholics in the SH say: Vamos! And, Ripper - do you ever have a view on what happens on the pitch? Unless it involves McAlister, you seem to have no interest in the play. [/QUOTE]
