It's such a shame Corbisiero got injured and decided to pack in and go to the US.. He was easily the best loosehead in world rugby at only 24, and could have been one of the all time greats.. 120kgs, fantastic technique, great around the park, and the most destructive loosehead I've seen since Rodrigo Roncero.. The lions tour in Australia showed just how good he was..
@@laurencepiper I beg to disagree. I played with Dan Cole and he was an absolute beast. His strength was not far off Andy Sheridan and marmalized opposition props for fun. He was by far the strongest forward in the Tigers squad even at 23. Healey's achilles heel was his propping in his early days and had to work extremely hard on it. We would often target him as a weak link in the scrum
I know I’m a bit late to this party but the man Corbisiero took over from was the most destructive loosehead in the game - Andrew Sheridan. Absolute beast of a powerhouse Carl hayman said he was the hardest prop he’s ever gone against - praise doesn’t get higher than that!
He was American anyway, he did get injured but that wasn't what stopped him playing, it was the realisation that he was basically putting his spine on the line every scrum. He's still physically very fit and a big fan of MMA, he just chose the right decision and got out before his spine turned into an accordion. Corbs was absolutely superb. Hopefully the US can persuade more of their legit fit guys to stop playing Fatball and play rugby
As much as it pains me to say it, Brian Moore is actually very insightful as a commentator -it's good to actually here the opinion of a seasoned front-rower.
As a tight head first and an Englishman second, this still makes painful viewing. We've all had one of those days, but none of mine have been in front of 80,000 people. Or been commentated on by Brian Moore.
Ireland had to put a loosehead in the tighthead spot before the 2nd half. This was when there was only one prop replacement on the bench. Thank god they changed it to 2 because tighthead and loosehead are entirely different positions and very few props can play both.
Scuba Steve if your talented you can play all 3 front row positions 😉 it’s purely down to the technique you use, being as strong as an ox will only get you so far Is was a lot easier when you could virtually destroy your opposition on the engage 😂👍🏻
@@pheasantpluckersson2138 hope that comment was tongue in cheek as I played hooker at a very good level, with great props either side, and believe me once you're above junior club level it's a completely different game in the front row. Tight head and loose head are infinitely different positions, different angles, different body position and far more. It's extremely rare for top level props to be able to play both sides safely, which is one of the reasons the laws were changed so specialists in all 3 positions were on the bench..
Brian Moore in his element , sometimes i think that if the whole game was made up of scrums and england winning them , he still would nt run out of words .
Great shame that Alex Corbisiero's career was so badly affected by injury. He was a phenomenal scrummager and the primary reason for this dominating performance from the English front five. And this was the basis of the pack that went on to crush the All Blacks in the Autumn of that year. That pack never played together again due to injuries. Obviously a relief to other nations. Against Wales at the Millennium stadium in 2013 then the scrummaging would have been different. Joe Marler got nailed that day by Adam Jones. Had Corbs been loose head the outcome would have been very different.
The only time I’ve seen it elsewhere was when England played Australia in 2007 RWC. England monstered the Aussie front row that day but the ref didn’t call any penalties on the scrum until well into the 2nd half
The Irish Tight-head was out of sorts, a boy amongst men. But enormous credit to him, he stood there and took it, scrum after scrum after scrum. He may have been technically inferior, but the bloke has a heart the size of a football.
@@michaeljeffries8005 - maybe the only other time was thee RWC 1/4 final in 2007. Andrew Sheridan absolutely monstered the Aussie scrum that day. I still think this performance against Ireland was more impressive.
Corbs was awesome. As a fat old prop I really rated him. Could of been one of the world greats had he not been injury. On another note Tom Court ended up on a lion's tour in 2013... Shocking.
Thesuddentornado nothing to do with England and everything to do with the terrible and weak Tom court. One of the worst international front rowers ever. Weak as piss

I really do not understand why we cannot get along, forget the past and enjoy the great game.
Corbs was one of the best ever. England, Lion... had so much more to give but super happy for him that he got out when he did. Wages were shit and to give your literal health for it... glad he went on to enjoy MMA. Love Corbisiero
Declan Hegarty If anyone can rub English noses in the 2014 6N it's the French. Painful loss to them that year. We still beat Ireland though, so there is that. :)
Declan Hegarty Green tea with a spoonful of honey. Should go some way to removing that bitter taste in your mouth. Good luck for the next 6N by the way, it'll be nice to see what Joe Schmidt has done to make up for the loss of Sexton and BOD. Hope you find a replacement for Cian Healey too, he's your version of Hartley. Great player, shite temperament.
Possessed indeed, very powerful but also totally illegal and even Brian Moore went along with the farce permitted by Nigel that day. Most referees then allowed that crap, for about two seasons, now they tend to apply the law properly.
@@Tellemore "Totally illegal"? Utter crap. The Irish Tighthead kept turning perpendicular to the scrum and that's why they kept getting marched backwards.
You do though and the comment you have made illustrates that quite succinctly. The last three games England and Ireland have played have not gone Irelands way. This is hardly blowing it out of all proportion. Besides, haven't seen Ireland win a WC or go to the SH, beat every team there and then do it again at home. England, and to lesser extent France, are the only teams to have at least stemmed the tide of SH dominance.
I am indeed English, but with a Welsh father and an Irish mother, I'll be happy as long as France don't win. The reason I predict either an English or Irish Grand Slam is that both of them play France at home and that Wales are practically out of the running now. Hence Sundays game will most likely be the most important of the tournament. Good luck to you too, it's undoubtedly going to be a hell of a game.

People who want to play tighthead should watch this. A lot of these penalties are all from Dan Cole Working hard, keeping steady and watching as the othe team collapse.
I'm Irish but full credit to england they deserved this game. England were at home and Ireland were playing without their 2 captains and leaders O'Connell and O'Driiscoll and lost Mike Ross early on in the game. I wonder if Ireland were playing with these (especially o'connell for the scrum) would it have been a different story but full credit to the English ye deserved it.
my eyes are open, we are far from the finished article, but with the number of caps out on the field its still positive. its not biased to be positive about the performance. i like how you mention quade cooper, the man who crumbled at the world cup. and genia, yes best scrum half in the world but phipps was excellent in his place. back line still had beale, ioane, ashley-cooper.very dangerous in my opinion. its not the result id like, but we are creating chances and with experience they can work
How rare is it that the loosehead gets one up on the tighthead? When I played ruggers at school (and I played full-back), the tightheads seemed to have most of the tricks, but I never figured out what sort of tricks the loosehead can pull to destabilise the opposing tighthead? Brilliant scrummaging, akin to what we did against the Aussies in RWC 2007 when Andrew Sheridan monstered the Aussie scrum.
glad to hear you speak for the rest of the world. When I lived in NZ a lot of kiwis were supporting England when playing the aussies on various occasions. you obviously didn't speak to those people before speaking on their behalf lol. Every team and its supporters can and have been arrogant/dis-respectful. Scotland selling calcutta cup winners a week before the game, the frogs coach stating England cannot win in paris etc. list goes on and on!
When England played Australia in the QF of 2007 RWC, that was pretty decisive. The English pack (particularly Andrew Sheridan) had the Australian front row on toast. Great game if you can find it.
It probably was but it is a very true reflection of the scrums in last year's Eng-Ire game. I can't remember the exact stats but I think Ireland lost 4 or 5 scrums against the head, gave away numerous penalties with a bad technique and were generally steamrollered. Of all the "dead rubbers" this was one of the most impressive by England. Ireland had spent the 2012 championship building on lineout authority and didn't have the bulk at the scrum
Recent 6 Nations Results: 2011: Ireland 24 - 8 England 2010: Ireland 20 - 16 England 2009: Ireland 14 - 13 England 2007: Ireland 43 - 13 England 2006: Ireland 28 - 24 England 2005: Ireland 19 - 13 England 2004: Ireland 19 - 13 England I guess I would be making a big deal of winning a game too with that record.

Totally agree. My point is that this is focussing on one game and putting down a team that has dominated in so many other areas. Just seems a bit crass to talk about "shaming" a team that has won so often recently
I was at that game. It was a warm up game for the RWC and wasnt a real game. Remember all the substitutions? It was two teams helping each other. Up to yesterday its been a decade since England beat Ireland at home in the 6 nations for over a decade. I was there yesterday too. Boring game for all spectators
No one would dispute that between 2004-2011 the Irish had a wonderful side, shown by the results of Munster and Leinster in the HC. But I would point out that as bad as England have been since 2003, they've still reached the world cup final and another quarter final. The challenge now for for Ireland is to replace the players who've gone. O'Driscoll, Hayes, O'Callaghan etc that will be a tough job.
Infairness ireland have a very small pool of players to choose from in comparason to england. But yet year on year they still manage to put up a good preformance and have beaten england 6 times in the last 9 six nations matchs. England are a decent team but considering their player pool size and depth they really should be a lot better. Also havent won a grand slam since 03 or even the WC. All in all ireland are a better team!!
Ha ha. Not going to bite on that obvious bait I'm afraid Tom. What I would point out is that five of the seven results you listed were by six points or less, so the reality is that the head-to-head has been generally close but decided by fine margins. If you toss a coin five times you don't often get five heads - but you do sometimes. Anyway, here's to another exciting match in this season's Six Nations, and hopefully another England win.
I forked out for this match with money I didn't have. Worst game ever. It was so bad that after about 60 minutes the English fans stopped making fun of us because they felt so bad for us. Left soon after that....
I've never heard the word "manshame" before. I'm fairly sure it's not a word. What I will say is that this was the most comprehensive dominance in the scrum that I've ever seen. As far as gloating on past results and all this tit-for-tat goes, leave it be. We all know England will beat Ireland, Ireland will beat England, over and over again as long as both sides play each other. The point is that it's exhilarating, and no matter which side you're on, we can all share in that.
I have to say, we were beasted in the scrum that day. But it also shows how one dimensional England were to be only 3 points to the good after 60 minutes
I really, really hope this is a new era for England and Lancaster, as for the Irish, it was nice to see England dominate but we all know how sport works, every one will be ready for us now, and the Irish will sort them selves out, but hopefully not for a while.
A: The England side didn't say 'manshame'. The youtube poster did. B: Scrumming is a point of pride and manhood. They were utterly mullered. Hence manshame.
This isn't about the wider game. This was all about the scrum. If you notice even in the commentary Brian Moore says "It was a real manshaming". The front five's manliness was taken away from them. They were manshamed
@@aikalabe7719 Similar to the scrimmage from your game, but in a three-line formation on each side which makes for an exceptionally powerful shoving machine when it's well drilled. Normally just for restarting after a minor offence but when the force is with you it's a great way to knock someone's dick in the dirt. (ex front-rower here, but that was last century...!)
@Airgunhunter2292: I never said Ireland were taking ''the moral high ground''. We got hammered but what I was trying to point out is the difference between when Ireland win against England and when England beat Ireland. The difference is class. The lack of class, respect from England is always going to be there. No matter whoever England play, no matter if they win or lose, the rest of the rugby world will neither really support them when they're winning nor offer sympathy when they lose.
Corbisiero absolutely dominated Court. Shame he's injured this 6 nations, Marler has been pretty poor. Credit for Court though for giving it his all despite getting destroyed out of position.
Indeed. Not once have any of those teams topped the ladder boards. It's about reaching the enthusiasm and technicality of NZ and beating them. That is the benchmark. The benchmark is not filling up all your anglophobic hatred for that one game every year against England. Fuck me, if England played with 1/5 the passion of the other home nations we'd be unstoppable.
David Paice (Australian), Mako Vunipola (New Zealand), Alex Corbisiero (American), Mouritz Botha (South African), Manu Tuilagi (Samoan). Some Great "ENGLISH" players you have there. Roughly 25 MILLION men live in England and you still need to import players..........
Newsflash: 6 nations = only the 3rd most important rugby competition in the world after the World Cup & the Southern Hemisphere 4-nations competition. But I understand that winning the 6 nations is probably your World Cup lol
ahaha well done well done, same number of tries as australia. this is australia who have a world class backline so im pretty happy. england were naive, fine, its a young team. im not pleased with the result but if we can cut the mistakes then im pretty optimistic. if we had taken our penalties, could have been a very different result.
I thought this was very unfair on Tom Court. He was a loosehead and at the time you could only have one replacement prop in your 22. It wasn't his fault if he was a loosehead who was put on to substitute a tighthead, especially not against one of the world's best. His reputation was ruined here but he was actually a very good player when he played at loosehead. This was the match that lead to the change whereby the 22 was turned to 23 and both a replacement loosehead and tighthead were allowed. Seeing the scrum collapse so dangerously every time made the IRB get its act together and make a decision on it.
It’s amazing to see so many comments that don’t seem to acknowledge that simple fact. If England’s 2nd choice loose head was playing at tighthead against Mike Ross, it would’ve been the exact same thing in reverse. I suppose it feeds into their self image or something. “Manshaming” and “dominating” with their “English beef”. Ireland had been manhandling England for a few years at this stage and they wet themselves with excitement when this happened.
@lcfctiger88; Of course,no nation wants to lose BUT you can be respectful & gracious if you lose.Take Cardiff after Ireland win the Grand Slam.I never seen a country more respectful than the Welsh.Their fans actually stayed afterwards to cheer Ireland.Now that's class you can't buy.Would England fans do the same?I can guarantee you they wouldn't.I watched the WC Semi in an Irish pub & everyone wanted Wales to win even after they put us out. That's the difference between everyone else & England.
Sorry my memory only goes back a season at a time. I did not mention the world cup. Englands performance in the last one was woeful with MJ as coach so I never mention it.
@leomburroughes1: As a post script, I wouldn't call us bad losers, rather expecting much more from our national team, especially on St. Patrick's Day. I fully congratulate England on their win. It was an awesome display of power & determination. I would even accept the phrase - ''school boys against men''.
I think he was referring to: Ireland 9-20 England, 27 August 2011 Whereas the only reason I remember that game is for the sad injury to David Wallace that stopped him making the World Cup.
Remember that Ferris got into a fair bit of trouble over that whole incident though as well. The citing commission said Ferris had pretty much lied in regards to his account of how his fingers got into Hartley's mouth and how much damage Hartley had actually done to his finger.
the biggest reason is losing to australia twice, once in the 3-4 play off, and then at home in november or whenever it was. i agree they should be higher as they are the better team, but they arent meaningless and the vast majority of the time work well
@eddyd63: You are missing the point about last year. The only reason Ireland took delight last year was because the England set up said all they had to do to win the Grand Slam was to show up in Dublin. It's this arrogance was fired up the Irish to win. Turn it round, Ireland have 4 wins out of 4, the last game is in Twickenham. The Irish set up say - oh the Grand Slam is in the bag. How would you feel as an opposing player? I suggest you look at Nike's Grand Slam ad to see where I coming from.

JeremyVine we were missing Sinckler
John Wena shows that dan Cole got worse at scrummaging then compared from this vid and from the final
JeremyVine I agree he is definitely past his prime
@@EpicPureGaming so your whole scrum relies on one person? that's a poor scrum..
Chris T clearly u never played before 😂
glad to hear you speak for the rest of the world. When I lived in NZ a lot of kiwis were supporting England when playing the aussies on various occasions. you obviously didn't speak to those people before speaking on their behalf lol. Every team and its supporters can and have been arrogant/dis-respectful. Scotland selling calcutta cup winners a week before the game, the frogs coach stating England cannot win in paris etc. list goes on and on!
never seen a game where the scrum has been so decisive in the victory
When England played Australia in the QF of 2007 RWC, that was pretty decisive. The English pack (particularly Andrew Sheridan) had the Australian front row on toast. Great game if you can find it.
It probably was but it is a very true reflection of the scrums in last year's Eng-Ire game. I can't remember the exact stats but I think Ireland lost 4 or 5 scrums against the head, gave away numerous penalties with a bad technique and were generally steamrollered. Of all the "dead rubbers" this was one of the most impressive by England. Ireland had spent the 2012 championship building on lineout authority and didn't have the bulk at the scrum
That was a great match to watch. England are born again, but don't be complacent and you will continue to win matches :) !!!!
Recent 6 Nations Results:
2011: Ireland 24 - 8 England
2010: Ireland 20 - 16 England
2009: Ireland 14 - 13 England
2007: Ireland 43 - 13 England
2006: Ireland 28 - 24 England
2005: Ireland 19 - 13 England
2004: Ireland 19 - 13 England
I guess I would be making a big deal of winning a game too with that record.
You missed the 2008 score, any ideas what it was?
Also the scores from 2012-2019 are probably more "recent" but let's not talk about all of them maybe just pick the couple of years you beat England 🤣
Wow add that to all three of your grand slams
T 1000 you’re so smart you didn’t even realise the comment was posted in 2013

Quite frankly, I think it's worse that an incident which happened before any current England player was born was used to guilt trip them into defeat.

Current "English" everything.(b. Of mass murder, theft, terrorism, slavery, genocide.) go England, don't forget where your wealth and comfort came from.
Leeches.
And now Ireland has had the best scrum in Europe since.
We shall in 6N. I would say Mako-George(Waaaay better than Hartley)-Cole is just as good as McGrath-Best-Furlong.
Imagine the damage a front row with Sheridan and Corbs would cause.
Totally agree. My point is that this is focussing on one game and putting down a team that has dominated in so many other areas. Just seems a bit crass to talk about "shaming" a team that has won so often recently
I was at that game. It was a warm up game for the RWC and wasnt a real game. Remember all the substitutions? It was two teams helping each other. Up to yesterday its been a decade since England beat Ireland at home in the 6 nations for over a decade. I was there yesterday too. Boring game for all spectators
No one would dispute that between 2004-2011 the Irish had a wonderful side, shown by the results of Munster and Leinster in the HC. But I would point out that as bad as England have been since 2003, they've still reached the world cup final and another quarter final. The challenge now for for Ireland is to replace the players who've gone. O'Driscoll, Hayes, O'Callaghan etc that will be a tough job.
Killed me this game. I remember sitting in a pub in Abbey St, Dublin watching this game. Yea shit day
Infairness ireland have a very small pool of players to choose from in comparason to england. But yet year on year they still manage to put up a good preformance and have beaten england 6 times in the last 9 six nations matchs. England are a decent team but considering their player pool size and depth they really should be a lot better. Also havent won a grand slam since 03 or even the WC. All in all ireland are a better team!!
Ha ha. Not going to bite on that obvious bait I'm afraid Tom. What I would point out is that five of the seven results you listed were by six points or less, so the reality is that the head-to-head has been generally close but decided by fine margins. If you toss a coin five times you don't often get five heads - but you do sometimes.
Anyway, here's to another exciting match in this season's Six Nations, and hopefully another England win.
I forked out for this match with money I didn't have. Worst game ever. It was so bad that after about 60 minutes the English fans stopped making fun of us because they felt so bad for us. Left soon after that....
Ben Morgan in his prime.
It was 10 years since England won in Dublin. And this was the 6 nations match in 2012.
I've never heard the word "manshame" before. I'm fairly sure it's not a word. What I will say is that this was the most comprehensive dominance in the scrum that I've ever seen. As far as gloating on past results and all this tit-for-tat goes, leave it be. We all know England will beat Ireland, Ireland will beat England, over and over again as long as both sides play each other. The point is that it's exhilarating, and no matter which side you're on, we can all share in that.
If you listen to the commentry he didn't say Ireland were or have been man-shamed, He described an emotion from his own experience!
“New Zealand” - Ben Franks (b. Australia), Greg Rawlinson (b.South Africa), Isaia Toeava (b.Samoa), Chris Masoe (b.Samoa), Sione Lauaki (b.Tonga), Sosene Anesi (b. in Samoa), Derren Witcombe ( b.

well said
thanks,i thought that england have come on far better in the wales, france and ireland games, they have improvemed a great deal.
I have to say, we were beasted in the scrum that day. But it also shows how one dimensional England were to be only 3 points to the good after 60 minutes
Watching this back makes me happy that Ireland have Tadgh Furlong.
He is a beast of a man like a green bus with the handbrake off on a slight hill.
I really, really hope this is a new era for England and Lancaster, as for the Irish, it was nice to see England dominate but we all know how sport works, every one will be ready for us now, and the Irish will sort them selves out, but hopefully not for a while.
A: The England side didn't say 'manshame'. The youtube poster did.
B: Scrumming is a point of pride and manhood. They were utterly mullered. Hence manshame.
There is nothing like a really good manshaming
This isn't about the wider game. This was all about the scrum. If you notice even in the commentary Brian Moore says "It was a real manshaming". The front five's manliness was taken away from them. They were manshamed
What is this delightful display of violence? I am american
Beautiful sport of Rugby. World Cup is on at the moment, there’s been some excellent moments so far!
@@DaPeePeePooPooCheck no i know that, im not sure i understand the science of this scrum thing though
Tony Malin basically Force is equal to the product of mass and accelerating
@@aikalabe7719 Similar to the scrimmage from your game, but in a three-line formation on each side which makes for an exceptionally powerful shoving machine when it's well drilled. Normally just for restarting after a minor offence but when the force is with you it's a great way to knock someone's dick in the dirt. (ex front-rower here, but that was last century...!)
Who's here after England got manshamed by South Africa for 80 minutes in the rugby world cup
He hoe lives by the sword ......
Yep, South Africa had our number in the world cup final. But the Boks are beasts. They'd have had anyone with that performance.
@Airgunhunter2292: I never said Ireland were taking ''the moral high ground''. We got hammered but what I was trying to point out is the difference between when Ireland win against England and when England beat Ireland. The difference is class. The lack of class, respect from England is always going to be there. No matter whoever England play, no matter if they win or lose, the rest of the rugby world will neither really support them when they're winning nor offer sympathy when they lose.
Arguably, Ireland has an advantage in managing players with central contracts.
Monumental English Pack display.
Not a bad Ireland pack either.
Do you feel 'manshamed' by the sheer man-ness of someone using the comment?
Don't worry, it's an Irish thing. Everyone over there is like you.
Wow, finish second. How impressive.
Corbisiero absolutely dominated Court. Shame he's injured this 6 nations, Marler has been pretty poor. Credit for Court though for giving it his all despite getting destroyed out of position.
Indeed. Not once have any of those teams topped the ladder boards. It's about reaching the enthusiasm and technicality of NZ and beating them. That is the benchmark. The benchmark is not filling up all your anglophobic hatred for that one game every year against England. Fuck me, if England played with 1/5 the passion of the other home nations we'd be unstoppable.
David Paice (Australian), Mako Vunipola (New Zealand), Alex Corbisiero (American), Mouritz Botha (South African), Manu Tuilagi (Samoan). Some Great "ENGLISH" players you have there. Roughly 25 MILLION men live in England and you still need to import players..........
Newsflash: 6 nations = only the 3rd most important rugby competition in the world after the World Cup & the Southern Hemisphere 4-nations competition. But I understand that winning the 6 nations is probably your World Cup lol
ahaha well done well done, same number of tries as australia. this is australia who have a world class backline so im pretty happy. england were naive, fine, its a young team. im not pleased with the result but if we can cut the mistakes then im pretty optimistic. if we had taken our penalties, could have been a very different result.
Irelands scrum ball was actually England’s ball! Tom Court will have that game etched onto his gravestone
Brilliant scrummaging. Hate to think what would have happened if Sheridan had been fit. (We live in hope)
That's what happens when the loosehead has it over the tighthead. It happened to England in the last WC final.
i have never seen the irish scrum so dominated in my life
I thought this was very unfair on Tom Court. He was a loosehead and at the time you could only have one replacement prop in your 22. It wasn't his fault if he was a loosehead who was put on to substitute a tighthead, especially not against one of the world's best. His reputation was ruined here but he was actually a very good player when he played at loosehead.
This was the match that lead to the change whereby the 22 was turned to 23 and both a replacement loosehead and tighthead were allowed. Seeing the scrum collapse so dangerously every time made the IRB get its act together and make a decision on it.
It’s amazing to see so many comments that don’t seem to acknowledge that simple fact. If England’s 2nd choice loose head was playing at tighthead against Mike Ross, it would’ve been the exact same thing in reverse. I suppose it feeds into their self image or something. “Manshaming” and “dominating” with their “English beef”. Ireland had been manhandling England for a few years at this stage and they wet themselves with excitement when this happened.
We've always been great scrummagers. Bring on Twickenham and the same :D
Sadly, according to what I saw this autumn, that's all we're good at now. Backline is badly misfiring (with a few exceptions of course).
@@IamMcBobb And now you're in the World cup final having hammered a strong All Blacks side. Quick turn around those 4 yrs!
@@realMaverickBuckley not a radically changed backline either. What a difference a coach makes. Also Manu is back to his best.
Gonna do one showing how South Africa beasted the little guys today?
@lcfctiger88; Of course,no nation wants to lose BUT you can be respectful & gracious if you lose.Take Cardiff after Ireland win the Grand Slam.I never seen a country more respectful than the Welsh.Their fans actually stayed afterwards to cheer Ireland.Now that's class you can't buy.Would England fans do the same?I can guarantee you they wouldn't.I watched the WC Semi in an Irish pub & everyone wanted Wales to win even after they put us out. That's the difference between everyone else & England.
England was conquered 200 years earlier than Wales was, and it only took one battle!
Just remember our match against you in the 6 Nations 2011
You may hate the Irish during the 6 Nations but you probably love them during the Lions tour since some of the best players are Irish.
Sorry my memory only goes back a season at a time. I did not mention the world cup. Englands performance in the last one was woeful with MJ as coach so I never mention it.
@leomburroughes1: As a post script, I wouldn't call us bad losers, rather expecting much more from our national team, especially on St. Patrick's Day. I fully congratulate England on their win. It was an awesome display of power & determination. I would even accept the phrase - ''school boys against men''.
It’s all fun and games til somebody puts an eye out
I think he was referring to: Ireland 9-20 England, 27 August 2011
Whereas the only reason I remember that game is for the sad injury to David Wallace that stopped him making the World Cup.
Remember that Ferris got into a fair bit of trouble over that whole incident though as well. The citing commission said Ferris had pretty much lied in regards to his account of how his fingers got into Hartley's mouth and how much damage Hartley had actually done to his finger.
the biggest reason is losing to australia twice, once in the 3-4 play off, and then at home in november or whenever it was. i agree they should be higher as they are the better team, but they arent meaningless and the vast majority of the time work well
Cant we all just get along?....
@eddyd63: You are missing the point about last year. The only reason Ireland took delight last year was because the England set up said all they had to do to win the Grand Slam was to show up in Dublin. It's this arrogance was fired up the Irish to win. Turn it round, Ireland have 4 wins out of 4, the last game is in Twickenham. The Irish set up say - oh the Grand Slam is in the bag. How would you feel as an opposing player? I suggest you look at Nike's Grand Slam ad to see where I coming from.
Look at us now and look at england .....
World of difference
..........cont
Ireland's joint 2nd highest no. of tries scored in 1 test: Matt Mostyn (b. AUSTRALIA)
Ireland's 10th most capped player as team captain: Phillip Matthews (b. ENGLAND)
30 seconds and there is already a scrum, what the heck happened. Did the kicker drop it.
