It would be good to see Ireland really challenge for the World Cup. They definitely have the ability

They are in the tough side of the competition, France or New Zealand in the quarters & South Africa in the semi final if they get there.It would be good to see Ireland really challenge for the World Cup. They definitely have the ability

That’s my worry, that Ireland will have to play 4 finals to win it.They are in the tough side of the competition, France or New Zealand in the quarters & South Africa in the semi final if they get there.

You are certainly good enough but a lot of people feel you have already peaked, not sure about that myself.That’s my worry, that Ireland will have to play 4 finals to win it.
S.A & NZ are very different beasts at world cup time though & itll be tough for Ireland.
If we get out the group we will probably play England in the quarters, much better than being in your side of the cup

Yeah, you'd think they'd be doing very well to keep the starting XV fit through that lot.
I bet the French games are going to be lively - will fear of Edwards keep their heads in the game?!

Wish Edwards was in Wales or at least Wigan with no involvement ;-)Yeah, you'd think they'd be doing very well to keep the starting XV fit through that lot.

Can't get SA in the semis, they're in our group.They are in the tough side of the competition, France or New Zealand in the quarters & South Africa in the semi final if they get there.

Do not understand why Shaun Edwards left Wales ?Wish Edwards was in Wales or at least Wigan with no involvement ;-)
Was it due to Gatland leaving ?
A huge loss for Wales and a massive bonus for France.
Will he follow Andy Farrell into a Head Coach role ?
If England have any sense, after the World Cup they should offer Farrell & Edwards all the money they want to be the management team.
As a Welshman, I hope they keep their heads in the sand and continue to ignore the Rugby League lads for senior roles (Kevin Sinfield apart)...

Oh ok, i think France or NZ will be too much for you, probable quarter final exit again.Can't get SA in the semis, they're in our group.
In saying all that, if it all clicks for you from the off, then no side will look forward to playing you & you are certainly good enough to win it.
As a Welshman, i certaily wouldnt want to play you, i will be happy to get out of our group ha

Yep, Wales.
Wouldn't wish anyone having to be in Wigan!
