[QUOTE="shazbooger, post: 291503"] The Irish rugby media (not to be confused with Irish football, or UK media in general) is actually quite solid in their coverage of rugby. Smit is taking his sources from the SA media, who in turn seem to be missquoting the Irish Media. The articles I've read were hugely selective and while of course there is an element of revenge (the Irish players said as much on tour), but there is nothing nasty in it. We just think we can, and so want to beat the Boks. <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div> Cool. Thank you. <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div> Hell no. I'd say the likes of BOD, POC, Heaslip and the likes are a right bunch of tossers to play against (but they are no Mike Phillips) and we've always had the likes of the Claw, Quinlan and many others that like the schneaky stuff as much as anyone. The thing is a lot of the Irish lads are a seriously good bunch of guys. Download and take a look at the documentary [url="http://www.therugbyforum.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=50933"]here[/url] Its a good watch. and you'll get a better understanding of the team behing the quotes. South Africa have anything similar worth watching. Would love to see them review a tri-nations or a lions tour. [/QUOTE]
