    • Will definitely not start Lambie , 1 wonder kick doesn’t make up for all the misses against the Aussies. Handre is the better all round player and he proved it against NZ and he is clearly our chosen flyhalf for RWC 2015. Ireland is 6 Nation Champs so start with the best.
      PS: Why you typing in capitals ? No one attacked you so you don’t have to scream….

  1. I wouldve rather started this team Against England… But its a good side no Doubt… But I wouldve give Morne the starting role because he knows the conditions and he is used to that… Remeber morne has a great record against Ireland… I wouldve rather started pollard against England…
