Rugby Union - All Backs Vs Ireland

[AJ]

Played on Saturday night (Saturday morning in Europe) All Blacks 1.13 Draw 43 Ireland 7.8 To the best of my recollection Ireland have never beaten the All Blacks, home or away. Most bookies have set the line at around 15.5pts, as I said else where I think this is the weakest ABs team in a decade, they have lost too many players to Europen clubs. The class is still there and I expect a home win, but I like this Ireland team, in particular the forward pack, that appears to have been lifted en masse from the excellent Munster squad. Ireland + 15.5pts @ 1.9 is my bet here :ok

Re: Rugby Union - All Backs Vs Ireland hey mate, is it simply a friendly game? because if it is i agree with your pick, in this kind of games the "weaker" teams usually put a lot of heart in trying to beat the most famous one
