@@peadarr He's still in excellent nick for 49. He's bigger than Doris. I remember him in his rugby league days. He was one hard b*stard. Irelands best coach ever.
Really hammers home how poor a job Leo Cullen is doing. The same players who looked so clueless and lethargic against the Bulls a month ago, produced a performance good enough to beat the Boks in their own back yard.
Leo cullen was never a head coach, once Stuart lancaster left for france, u could see a change in leinsters performances. He always needs world class coaches around him.
Doris did indeed lead from the front. Arguably the best 8 on the planet. He was excellent in both tests but today he was the best forward on the pitch. His opposite number made little impact in comparison.
To be fair, we lost that game in the second half. The Bokkes did what under normal circumstances would have been enough to get the win. But this is not a normal Irish squad. New players, players who've been largely looked over and feel aggrieved kept us in the fight! As for Frawley, who can't even start at Leinster, sublime and pure class to slot not one but two game wining drop goals. So happy for him after being sidelined by Leinster and Ireland over the years.
@@johankotze1622Hes the most consistent coach in the last 3 years. All other coaches have lower win rates. And his wins include a NZ series win away, a grand slam and a 6 nations win. Sure it’s not a World Cup win but his record is outstanding.
How do we settle this? well one way is that they've played eachother 3 times this season and Ireland have won 2 of them. Obviously the Springboks don't consider the RWC this season so they can say the opposite and they won on points diff. It's like the Good Friday agreement of rugby where both sides can pretend they're the winners
