Worst Irish display in the last 5 years, probably longer. How have the pack been done over like that. Absolutely brutal.

Things sort of fell apart there tbh, not the strong start that was hoped for, but at least we won and got the bonus points for 4 tries.

Brilliant day today, matchwise. Could've done with an upset but really nobody was embarassed. First half of South Africa - Samoa was awesome. |

I felt really sorry for that Portuguese guy who ran half the field for his 'try'. Should have given him it, spoilsports.

wow that was absolutely shocking, the worst ive seen in O'Sullivans reign. Absolutely no hope of getting out of this group on that display and every single display since March.

Nice to see all the small boys putting up a fight this time round, such a stark contrast to last world cup, I dont see any team getting 100 points posted by them this year or at least I hoope not.
Some players from the smaller nations looking pretty decent this time aswell.
Habana so awesome btw

| Can only see a century in one of the AB's games, probably against Portugal.

Awsome display by our Portuguese lads, if only they were more experienced they might not have done those 2 handling errors that cost them a couple of tries.
Also the Scots had an easy life running through the middle, and strength difference was great..but then again we are a team of amateurs so i think it was a very good show.
And that singing of the Anthem was maybe the biggest moment in Portuguese sports ever..amazing pride/passion..well done lads :thup:

Maybe, this is showing wonders for rugby around the world now though, really hope that in 10/15 years time we can have a really good competition where all the teams are competitive.
I would also be really up for seeing the Argies in the 6 nations.

| Aye, well done lads.
I think we really put a good performance but the scots were very strong and it was difficult going past them...they have such beasts. :eek:
We did got our first points in a world cup
I´m looking forward to see the game against New Zealand, one of the best teams in the world and to watch that dance of NZ and the portuguese singing the anthem like they did will be a fantastic start to a game.
I used to like rugby more in the past but watching Portugal in a world cup is great :cool:
C´mon Lobos! :cool:
