struggling to understand why the irish are favourites,their play so far has been one dimensional and obvious,can`t see blasting through the middle and relying on set pieces working against the French,who in contrast have looked very dangerous,you take a risk with the French but the value on the French price is to good to turn down,french win for me

Well Ire were priced in a 4/6 for this at start and Fra would have been around 7/4 so things have moved a bit. A lot is still based on form of the last year rather than the previous month. Always tough to work out how teams are really doing in meaningless games.
Regardless, I like Fra. |

By:
I suppose it is also more of a home game for Ire in terms of crowd support anyway which is factored in.

Haven't been impressed by the French in what I have seen of them this WC....though they were impressive against England in the build up.
I think Ireland will win, just. Teams coached by Schmidt seem to get the job done. |

Not really a dead rubber for the Irish.They have little chance of beating the ABS a chance to beat Arg .France i wouldnt say the same for.

Fra would probably rather face NZ than Arg
  |
|
By:
dont really think they mind.The Irish do want to play Arg
|
|
By:
you can see already this is a proper game
|
|
By:
I just wish they would stop giving the ball to POC to carry (trundle)....all it does is slow the game down.

Is that just a blood sub/check for concussion? I guess.
