Feel for Healy, injured in the final warm up game and misses out. His 35 now so won't get another crack at another RWC.

Ireland 2023 Rugby World Cup squad Forwards (18): Ryan Baird, Finlay Bealham,Tadhg Beirne, Jack Conan, Caelan Doris, Tadhg Furlong, Iain Henderson, Rob Herring, Ronan Kelleher, David Kilcoyne, Jeremy Loughman, Joe McCarthy, Peter O'Mahony, Tom O’Toole, Andrew Porter, James Ryan, Dan Sheehan...

Everybody is talking about Fiji causing the upset, I'd be worried about Georgia. The thing they are use to is winning, and consistently and that's even been transferring across to games against tier 1 nations. There pack is the best in the group, and if they get wet conditions that become a...

That's still better then the video the Tahs were playing on the big screens when they scored a try this season. Sorry Tah fans that was one of the worst things I have seen in Super Rugby

Fixed for you Not enough BOK supporters on hear compared to FB groups, they beat a very average Wales and now they think that makes them favorites because Ireland only beat a average English team.

I think you will find, they are not able to demand a player swaps clubs unless they are required to be starting and that's not happening at there current club. You will find with the Irish centralized system that all players in the Irish system are generally starting enough games. The big...

Israel Folau is out injured, George Moala still selected and will be available later in the group stages. Adam Coleman also selected. Tonga Rugby World Cup squad Forwards: Sosefo ‘Apikotoa, Adam Coleman, Sione Havili Talitui, Vaea Fifita, Siegfried Fisi’ihoi, Fe’ao Fotuaika, Solomone Funaki...

I pointed out in that group chat, those teams will be at risk having not had a really tough game in a month.

Reg you should pin this up top

yeah, I agree. I think Samoa could upset England and Japan this year. Have a few good players in there and Sopoaga is the best fly half in the group.

Given games are in the middle night and through the week, out of respect for people who won't be able to watch matches live but still want to engage broadly on the RWC, let's keep spoilers to the match threads Another hard to pick group, right now you would suggest Argentina to finish top and 3...

Given games are in the middle night and through the week, out of respect for people who won't be able to watch matches live but still want to engage broadly on the RWC, let's keep spoilers to the match threads One of the hardest pools to pick the two sides to qualify, 4 sides all capable of...

Given games are in the middle night and through the week, out of respect for people who won't be able to watch matches live but still want to engage broadly on the RWC, let's keep spoilers to the match threads Without doubt the hardest group, two top 4 sides, the Scots playing well and ready to...

Given games are in the middle night and through the week, out of respect for people who won't be able to watch matches live but still want to engage broadly on the RWC, let's keep spoilers to the match threads New Zealand, France, Italy, Uruguay, Namibia - The easiest group to pick first and...

I hadn't really looked at the fixture for them and France, knew they played each other first up. Means by the time the QF comes around they both will have played 3 relatively soft test matches and risk entering the QF undercooked.

8: Caelan Doris 10: Sexton/Crowley 12: Henshaw Would all be ahead of the side picked on the weekend, it would move Bundee to the 23 jersey.

He was, but when you fail to use your arm to wrap you really don't have a chance of being cleared do you? Even Farrell pretended to wrap with his tackles.

Probably 3 changes away from full strength, 8, 10 and 12 wouldn't be starting in a full strength Ireland side.

I don't agree with the decision, but without knowing the full extent of the arguments for mitigation I am not going to call it corrupt. Why would an all Aussie panel including a former Wallaby make a decision that directly impacts the Wallabies chances?

Strong line up to give England a hiding this weekend. Congratulations to Earlsey in his 100th off the bench.
