ollie Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 F#ck that was nerve racking, but Ireland managed to scrape through and that is 2 times in a row that Ireland have beaten them. Fair play to England, although Ireland wasn't great England played better than they did in the first 2 games. Roll on France and Wales now and hopefully the grand slam will be ours Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old rooster Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 It was close but if we'd had the perfectly good try allowed and a proper look at the maul on the line it could have been a different outcome. Don't weant to sound like a whinger but I reckon we had to play 17 blokes at some stages in the match !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ollie Posted February 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 Excuse me O.R. and what about your 1st try? O'Gara was taken out of the ball in the build up to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davhope Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 OK you can have the first try back if you give us the other two I reckon the ref was wearing shamrock underpanties and he had the whistle stuck in his throat........

Teal Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 Ollie - O'Gara was good today! He's a bit of a legend now, but tell me, whatever happened to David Humphreys I haven't heard anything of him since I was living in belfast myself, fair play he's in the Ulster team so we all pumped him up - but has he had a loss of form lately, it seems O'Gara is always played over him?

ollie Posted February 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 I'm sorry teal I don't know much about humpreys, I only watch rugby when it's on TV so I suppose I'm not a big fan of it , one of the other guys could prob tell you more.

Big Angus Posted February 28, 2005 Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 Teal, Its nothing to do with Davids play, its to do with the same old thing. You cant have an Ulster man starting on a home venue at landsdown road. (Politics) Don't get me wrong O'Garra is a good player. I would still prefer to see David starting i think he works well with stringer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally think that o'gara is a better player than humpreys and I don't think that humpreys would have scored them 2 dropgoals in the first half.

Wasn't blaming Ireland for winning, just the ref. and that poxy linesman for us losing B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
