A lot of that had to do with Staunton at the time. Come next summer, they'll be cheered off the plane in Dublin Airport when the rugger buggers are getting thrashed by some mad country in the South Pacific or somewhere else on their summer tour.

Not if they were to embarrass themselves.

Which I'm fairly confident won't happen.

I hate when these old threads come up and i don't look at the date and wonder what is going on.
