    Georgians are playing the Russians, even though they are out they are not going to lie down and take a beating, I'd compare it to Ireland playing England in London when we knew we couldnt get through, we'd still go gun-hoe for the win.

    The Swiss are an over-rated international team. Basel did well in the champions league, they beat a shocking Ireland team in Dublin and all of a sudden they are excellent? The drew and lost to Russia and had worse results against Albania and Georgia than we did. They are there for the taking.
    Oh no not them again

    Man, you don't pull your punches. Just out of curiosity, what'd he do?

    i can see us beating the swiss but when it comes to pressure games ie. games we must win they always end in draws.

    When was the last time Ireland actually BEAT a serious contender away from home?
    Wouldn't personally see the Swiss as anything like a 'serious contender' after their hopelessly inept performance against Russia. Fact is if we run straight down the middle at them like the Russians did, we could have them in serious trouble. Preparation under Kerr will be spot on. so I'm quietly confident that we can pull it off.
    Munster 33-6 Gloucester
    Aint revenge sweet?!

    Scotland 0-1 Ireland,
    Nice to see this (highly subjective) stat being trotted out by every pundit in the country. Hi, fellas!
