One must remember how very secondish this Ireland team is wasn't Niyi Adeolokun and Sweetnam called up? 😱😳
True ^
If it was the USA Eagles I would be 100% convinced in an Ireland win, but just as Ireland was ready for the big fixture against NZ, Canada will treat this like a World Cup final and have some serious fire power if DTH Van Der Merwe is playing
Meaning Sexton may not even see the bench for this match.
Imagine we'll see Jackson start with Carbery on the bench. Given Jackson's form of late and Carbery ' s outstanding debut against New Zealand think it unlikely that Schmidt will risk his two form fly halves for this one.
They better not get cocky after beating all blacks like it's an absolutely amazing achievement it's just don't want to see that.
Jackson will be back now so Carbery may disappear unfortunately
Hopefully we'll see a good Ireland B team, a Carbery/Marmion start would be snazzy
Bloody ****, now we get the squad that beat the All-Blacks!
