Thought the RWC Pundit deserved a thread of its own (from here).

    I've joined!
  • OK who HASN'T got Carter and McCaw???

    I haven't picked Carter I've got O'Gara.

    Seems only sensible thing to do to me, if you had any sense you'd know why! :wink:

    Prince William's long lost brother ...... I mean.......O'Gara is good, but he's miles off the quality of the likes of Carter, Hook, and even Wilko.

    Ok, if you think so! Still not changing my mind, O'Gara is a better pick than Carter. In fact I've only picked one NZer at all.

    That's me submitted a team and pending joining the league.

    I have not a clue about rugby but it might get me interested. I just stuck in a few southern hemisphere chaps an one or two others I think I have heard of, and a couple who sounded like they were big feckers.

    Just shows how little I know, I picked a team with no kicker it seems. Then I changed the team to have a kicker (Carter I think as he seems to be good) then I find I cannae change my kicker until next week so I am stuck with some big hammer thrower as my kicker until then.

    Carter will not only potentially score nmore tries, he will certainly score more assists. He'll have the closest to an armchair ride in doing so compared to any other 10. The other FH worth considering is Hernandez the Argentinian. Had a great game this evening.

    Ok, NZ scored more than I expected against Italy, but the reason I've picked O'Gara is Ireland are playing Namibia tomorrow FFS, who are a lot worse than Italy. I was always going to change to Carter after the first weekend, but I expect Ireland to score over 100 points with a few tries, conversions, assists and maybe even drop kicks for Scarlet O'Gara, and hopefully more points than Carter.

    For the same reason I've picked quite a few Scots as they are playing unprofessional Portugal - I'll drop all of them for NZers for next weekend.

    Contrelamontre - you seen the scores? :lol::lol:

    Noodley - 52
    CLM - 15

    OK, the Ireland scores still have to be added so I may regret drawing attention to the scores this early :wink:

  • Looks like they have done enough. 32-17 at 77 minutes

    I am not a happy bunny! :(

    Pride before a fall and all that, but I just can't believe NZ put so many past Italy. I was expecting the scores of the Ireland and the NZ matches to be the reverse, i.e. Ireland winning by 70 odd and NZ scoring 30 ish...

    It's not been a good start for me at all I obviously picked the wrong Lamont and Scott Murray was clearly slipped a back hander by Noodley to drop that try scoring chance!

  • Habana was clearly the man to have in your pundit team for the first round of matches.

    Not that today's game between the Argies & the Georgians is going to make a big difference to the BR RWC Pundit Leaderboard...
