If Ireland beat England by ten points you would say we trashed them, by twenty what would the English fans say?! But 30 points!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bring on the World Cup! To beat the World Champions by 30 points is an element for the southern hemisphere nations to take note!? Whats your opinion? Its a pity that Ireland didnt play for the first 20 minutes against France, but the result Ireland got today should New Zealand and South Africa and of course the Oz y s take note!!!!!!! I m under the impression that the world should be wary of the Irish Team, outside bet for the World Cup? Maybe? Irish Eyes Are Smiling!

Oh I think Ireland have an excellent chance of becoming world champions. If they played the way they did on Saturday, all the time then it is possible.
O'Driscoll is a Legend, and O'Gara is unstanding, O'Connel is a the man of the match.
Being Irish I am delighted at the result, Ireland really show everyone their potential and now they have a chance of winning the world cup.
Bring It On !

This goes to show that any team can win the world cup (any team except the English). The three teams i would pick that would win the world cup are
no# 1- the All Blacks. The reason they are the number 1 seed and team, well you should know.
no#2- Ireland. The Irish are surprisingly the most improved team second to NZ. I just thought that their International Games in November last year were flukes but this year they have proven me wrong.
n0#3- France. Mainly because they have home ground advantage

You Betya. And judging how the French allowed a bad Welsh team to score 3 try's against them yesterday, they don't have much to be optimistic about either. Ireland should have beaten them off the field and would have done except for the absence of a few key players and the leadership that Brian O'Driscoll brings.

The southerners will take not, but they will still have a lot of confidence.
