Glad you you enjoyed and have started to appreciate how good rugby can be. To think you used you mock people for following rugby and now you're a fan yourself. You've clearly seen all the Ireland games in November given your obsession with the team. I hope you enjoyed the games

Absolutely, amazing performances. Reminds of the time Tyrone won 45 McKenna Cup finals in a row and the incredible joy it brought to everyone.

By winning the 45 in a row they also won national leagues Ulster and a few All Irelands, its a about form though in rugby, you need to bring that form to the big stages, 6 Nations and World cup, doing well in the Autumn internationals against the best of the SH teams is all well and good and no easy feat. Transferring that form or maintaining it is the key.

Though in terms of international games its better than beating Luxembourg in saccer

Is it? The Republic got 3 points for beating Luxembourg in soccer. Tyrone got to take the McKenna Cup home and put in a nice cabinet in Healy Park. Apart from being crowned World Cup Contenders by the media, getting loads of slaps on the back what did the Ireland Rugby team win in the last 2 weeks? But I do concede the performances of the rugby team was tots tots Amazeballs.

Got 3 points for beating Luxembourg, two bald men fighting over a comb would have been a better description. Both teams finished on 9 points which is where the team is at

Now that Ireland beat New Zealand I can't wait for the Lions to play NZ. Or would be more appropriate for the Lions to play Ireland?
Now that Ireland have beaten the all Blacks they should take on the Ryder Cup

When two bald men fight over a comb, at least one of them has a comb at the end.

53-7 to Ireland over Argentina. 53 points on the bounce after Argentina scored first. That doesn't tell the whole story as Argentina butchered a number of scoring opportunities in between.

Still Irelands results and performances two years out from a world cup are better than they were this time 4 years ago. Now the trick is to bring our top performance at the world cup like The teams we just beat Argentina, Japan and New Zealand have managed.
Argentina have been on tour for 2 years due to Covid. The union can't afford to pay for families to join so they haven't seen their families for 2 years .

Does the manner the French beat the All Blacks take a bit of the shine off Irelands win against them?

Yeah definitely.

The All Blacks looked like a team too long on the road but it can hopefully stop lads getting too carried away like they did last time!

Judging by that Indo article, that ship has long since sailed.
