No Ethan. He must be grounded for a long time. Very naughty boy. I wonder what he did.
Caleb Clarke loves Guinness and has a great great Irish granny or something.After a few beers with kiwi fans who are sure they're going to win it dawned on me how big a game this is for us.
We simply have to win as favourites v NZ and we've never done this before. Nz think they're going to win because of who they are but we're a better rugby team to this point this year.
If we want to stay in the echelon of one of the best rugby teams in the world, which is a huge benchmark for us wanting to break new ground and win a world cups, we have to defend home court.
Losing sets our status as a tough team to beat but nothing more. We can't afford that after last year.
We need to show we're fuckers even after Sexton, no one would put amything substantial on it (me included, we win tomorrow 10/10 times with him) but we simply have to prove it tomorrow. If we don't, 2031 should become the focus.
All that said, I have full faith in our lads to break new ground and make it look easy. Ireland by 12 and game out of sight by the hour.
NZ also need to stop overthrowing at the lineout.If NZ play like they did last week, then Ireland will win comfortably. If they tighten up on their ball handling and reduce the penalties then should be a good game.

You'll be glad to know you're as far away from me as possible.
Must have a decent wide angle lens on your phone to fit all of Simon Zebo into one shot
