Next week is the big test for Ireland. The tag of favourites never sits well with us. It's something Schmidt has worked hard to get the team to shake. But it's so deeply ingrained in the Irish psyche.
If we do manage to get through next week. Then going into a semi final as big under dogs against one of the clear favourites for the tournament is the perfect scenario for Ireland. It would be our very first semi final and the boys would have nothing to lose.
Ireland will likely be missing Sexton and the O's next week (O'Connell, O'Mahony, and O'Brien). Because of that, they probably won't be favorites for many. Good thing they have a decent squad, and not too many seem to know what that squad can offer.
