[QUOTE="TRF Mr Fish, post: 508439, member: 20892"] The fact of the matter is, only a few Irish players have ever performed particularly well against us, at least in recent years. Beyond BOD and a couple of others, when was the last time one of the Irish players actually stood out against NZ, in a good way? Ireland have never beaten us, their players may be good when playing H Cup, or in the Six Nations or whatever, but they don't retain those standards against NZ for whatever reason. I'm sure there are some good players in the team, but until you prove you can play well against the top team in the world, it's all a bit irrelevant. Ireland could beat us, sure, but does anyone realistically think they have a chance of doing so? Not really. [/QUOTE]
