Ireland

In my opinion Ireland are turning into one of the most exiting teams in international rugby today. We have a superbly strong and dynamic front row especially Keith Wood who is with out doubt the best hooker in the world. Our Second row of Malcolm O'Kelly and ex lion Jeremy Davidson are possibly the best pairing in the world. Our backs are also fantastic and exciting however we do seem to have the wrong man at out-half. At present we have got Ronan O'Gara who can do nothing but kick. We should have David Humphries on as he plays a far more modern style of rugby. This could be seen when he came ... more

From the kick off they were excellent. David Humphreys took over the fly half duties from a ... more

WIth world class players like Geordan Murphy, Brian O'Driscoll, Gordon Darcy, Ronan O'Gara, Paul O'Connell among much much more this team on a good day is simply unstoppable. Ireland have enjoyed success in the Six Nations since 2004 having won 3 out of the last 4 Triple Crowns. In 2007 they were unlucky not to win the 6 Nations but France won it on points difference. September 2007 is when all eyes are on France to see who will win the Web Ellis Trophy. Ireland are in the group ... more
