I'd have to disagree. It's the worst England team in 20/30 odd years. The honeymoon feel good period surrounding new coach Ashton is gone. 2 victories against weak opposition does not suddenly make them a decent team.Keep the penalty count low and i believe we will beat them by 15 and comfortably so. That will make it 4 times in a row we will have beaten the old enemy.

Yeah, all that is true, but after last weeks performance, I'm not taking anything for granted. O'Driscoll back is a massive boost, but Boss just isn't as good as stringer.

I see Ireland being overpowered by the english pack for the first 20-30 min and go about 6 down before half time. Irish fitness to tell in second half a couple of tries midway through the half and a comfortable finish in the end.

Ireland to have parity in the scrum for about an hour. Line-outs to be much of a muchness. Irish midfield will be wise to the Farrell game-plan and stick to Jonny. Ireland to score 3 tries and England 1.

I would say the 2005 team was worse. It was most of the same players, minus Wilkinson, Farrell and Vickery.

And we only beat that team by 6 points.

I don't think Ireland will hammer England, in fact, I think we'll do very well to beat them. This team aren't simple walkovers, they will probably have the match of us in the forwards and their backs look very tough in defence.

This is exactly why we will win.

Looking at it realistically Ireland are good right now, England are not, they are in a rebuilding phase.

The only way Ireland will lose this is if they play cack, if they play to anything like their potential they will win by 10-15 points I would say.

A key point is not conceding penalties, we need to be diligent because if we get sloppy wilkinson will keep pinging them over and could well keep them in a game they wont deserve to be in.

Dont get me wrong, I aint eddies biggest fan by any means, but its just the way of the world that you cannot drop a coach at this point in the 4 year WC cycle.

Even if the next coach was Jesus Christ himself he wouldn't have time to imprint his design on the team.

I do think it shameful that this Ireland team has not won a 6 nations any one of the last 3 years, when the set of players were good enough to. It fucking broke my heart to have us lose to france by two poor tries from soft tackles.

But steady eddie is the man who will take us to the WC either way, its his last chance saloon.

I don't think we will hammer them but i genuinely believe we will beat them by about 15. I strongly disagree with your statement that we will be doing well to beat them. We have beaten them 3 times in a row. They have lost 8 out of the last 11 matches im pretty sure. They are devoid of creativity in the backline. Besides Jonny they have not much to offer(keep down the penalty count and we will be flying). I would be expecting to beat them comfortably enough. If we can't beat the worst English team in 20/30 odd years in our own country then there is no hope really. If we lost on Saturday i would be completely shocked.

England are no great shakes but they are combative in the forwards and with Wilkinson back they will punish Ireland for any infringements.If we perform as we did against the French we will lose.

BOD back could be the difference between the sides. Ill say Ireland by 7 points.

Agreed but i believe England have become a worse team (as their worst run in 20 odd years will back up) and Ireland have become a better team (results in the autumn back that up and running NZ close down under in the summer).Their are not many players i would exchange for on the England and absolutely none in the backline. Maybe Wilko but let's see who wins that battle on Saturday - Wilko V Gara. Cut out the penalties and it will be interesting to see what impact Wilko would have. Gara is a better touchline kicker, certainly a better passer and is really trying to add to his running game. No doubt Johnny is better defensively although me ol lade could tackle better than O Gara. Certainly would not swap POC or DOC. Also Leamy and Wallace and probably Neil Best too even though Easterbunny is playing. The front row is debatable. Anyway we'll discuss this on Monday morning and then one of us can gloat! I say ireland by 12 plus.

Ireland to win, with Drico pulling the strings (no...not pulling Stringer) in the midfield .....our centres should be far too nimble and creative for them....Farrell has not been seriously tested yet.

Johnny may be able to keep them fairly close on the scoreboard though, and the Ref may have a big part to play here...if Ireland infringe and play their boderline game too much, Wilko will punish them nearly every time !!!!

My main prediction for the game is that stringer will stall taking the ball out of the powderpuff irish scrum, they'll get pushed about a bit, the ball will be half out and someone will try and move to grab it. Peanut will then turn to the ref and start flapping his hands and screaming like a girl

This will happen 3 or 4 times during the game.

I know Eddie and yourself have some sort of ThickLadsTogether pact, but this is the wrong tree to be barking up. He denied Bloody Sunday, not the armoured car.

From GAA.ie

Dublin were scheduled to play Tipperary on November 21st, 1920. On the night before the match the leader of the Irish revolutionary forces Michael Collins had ordered the assassination of the "Cairo Gang'', 14 British intelligence officers sent to infiltrate his organisation under the guise of commercial travellers. In revenge, one of the British auxiliaries involved in the operation recalled that they tossed a coin over whether they would go on a killing spree in Croke Park or loot O'Connell Street instead.

Despite the unease in the city on the morning of November 21st, some 10,000 spectators went to Croke Park for the match.

The ball was thrown in by referee Mick Sammon from Kildare at 2.45 pm. Shortly afterwards an airplane flew over the ground and a red flare was shot from the cockpit. Black and Tans then raided the ground and an officer on top of the wall fired a revolver shot.

The crowd thought at first they were firing blanks but then machine gunfire was fired in increasing volume. The crowd stampeded towards the Railway wall, furthest from the gunfire.

Two of the players, Michael Hogan and Jim Egan, failed to make it off the pitch. A young Wexford man who attempted to whisper an act of contrition into the dying Hogan's ear was also shot dead.

The casualties included Jeannie Boyle, who had gone to the match with her fiancee and was due to be married five days later, and 14-year-old John Scott, so mutilated that they thought he had been bayoneted to death. Another two victims were aged 10 and 11 respectively.

The authorities released the following statement to the newspapers: A number of men came to Dublin on Saturday under the guise of asking to attend a football match between Tipperary and Dublin. But their real intention was to take part in the series of murderous outrages which took place in Dublin that morning. Learning on Saturday that a number of these gunmen were present in Croke Park, the crown forces went to raid the field. It was the original intention that an officer would go to the centre of the field and speaking from a megaphone, invite the assassins to come forward. But on their approach, armed pickets gave warning. Shots were fired to warn the wanted men, who caused a stampede and escaped in the confusion.

Ireland 22 England 13
France 25 Wales 28
Scotland 16 Italy 9

think the irish game will be tight with a bit of midfield brilliance from o' driscoll or d'arcy the decising factor,irelands greater creativity in the backs means they will win the try count and ultimately the match.

will be looking for a far better welsh performance than the muck they served up at murrayfield two weeks ago,think they will go close in paris,might sneek a win.

finally expect the last match to be a shocking,penalties the order of the day with the scots somehow managing the solitary try of the game.

Unless your point is that the Brits didn't storm into Wembley and shoot up the place, and that Jordans film wrongly implies that British troops did storm in to Wembley and shoot up the place, you're either an insane revisionist or grand high chieftan of the clan McFitzy .

Regardless of whether there were IRA men in the ground or not, or even if shots were fired by them, the fact is, the Brits very definitely did storm in and shoot up the place.

Ireland to have parity in the scrum for about an hour. Line-outs to be much of a muchness. Irish midfield will be wise to the Farrell game-plan and stick to Jonny. Ireland to score 3 tries and England 1.
