I don't really think we have much of a chance. Not that I follow Rugby - I'm an AFL man myself!
*chokes on kebab*
Neither of ye will be laughin in a months time when Ireland are in the final !!!

*Throws lamington at Pol* (It's a brave move to throw a lamington at a mod!)
Ireland only know how to play round ball games, don't they? :)

Yeah I figured as much! The whole "conflict" is great enterainment though. There isn't anything meant in what I say too!
"Ripping the urine" however bears a mental picture that I simply don't want to carry!
yeah we know you well dj! Glad you're joining in the fun :)

You'll be interested to know that everyone over hear reckons that England are the team to beat! whilst i don't follow the game very closely, they do seem to have a great record in the past 12 months!

Hey! Don't get me in on this! Who do you follow in the Premiership and is Pol really a Man U fan?
Seeing as we're currently under a flag of truce Si...i won't react to that blatant provocation. And djussy...if you tell me what a lamington is, i'll decide whether to duck or not....actually sod it, you're banned....lol

allez le Quinze de France !!!
on est jamais bon avant la coupe du monde, genre pendant le tournoi des six nations, ou même pire pendant les tests matchs
mais une fois le grand jour arrivé, on se déchaine !
il ne suffit pas d'être costaud, ni brute ... tout est dans l'art de pratiquer du beau tout en réfléchissant ... :)
go France go !!!!
Well at least now we know who voted for France !

Is lamington really in the dictionary??? They do taste nice, it would be a shame to waste it by throwing it at Pol!
Unless it was one of those out the back. You know. The one that's been left out for 3 weeks and is harder than a brick! :)

Ireland are playing in Adelaide on Sunday against Argentina. The game is a sellout here, which has amazed everyone. South Australia isn't known as a Rugby state. Half the crowd will turn up and wonder what a maul is!

I'd say Wales since they appear to be underrepresented. ;)

They're all probably there for the drinking competition after the game (which the Irish will also win hands down)
Si...if Ireland meet England i'm told they're gonna stuff Jonny Wilkinson like a Sunday roast....he'll be waking up 2 days later with a gang around him :hit:

Plan A is..
Arrive at pub
Grab as much Castlemaine xxxx as possible
Run like hell !
Ok so if Ireland beat Australia they get to play Scotland
If they lose to the Aussies they play France.
Doesn't matter.....French Fries or Scots Gits....just another ass whoppin', Celtic style !!

You'd better pack Johnny Wilkinson away if you want any hope! (Always thought kicking a ball was our national game) :)

HEY! u called it Si(along with everyone else on the planet) Wilkinson is a superb talent and was the difference in the 2 teams, hmm Im just thinking back to Australias first kick attempt that hit the post if only it went thru...oh well
It was such a close game and the Sprtsmanship of those union players towards each other and the REF is 2nd to none, all other sports should take note.
Congrats England, good game :thumbsup:
CRICKET!!!
11-23-2003, 02:46 AM
atlest it was a close game,
i thought england was going to run away with it at half time though
Ok, well done England...well deserved. Have to do something about that Wilkinson git !! :hit:

Ireland would never catch him ;)
Yes, hard lines Australia! But we've taken beatens off you for years so let us milk this one - I mean, we even lost to you at football in Feb!!
What a tense final though! Credit to you guys for not giving in.
