Post by Biltong Sun Nov 04, 2012 10:26 am

First topic message reminder :

The much anticipated Autumn Iinternationals has arrived and South Africa will begin their three test tour against Ireland on Saturday at Landsdowne road. With a record of only one win in their last four test matches and 3 straight losses between 2004 and 2009, the Springboks would like to continue their resurgence against Ireland and emulate their two point victory of 2010.

But will they be up for an Ireland team who have been just about as disappointing as the Springboks were in 2012.

Ireland who boast wins over Scotland and Italy and a Hard earned draw over France at Stade de France earlier in the year has a disappointing return of 5 losses, 2 wins and 1 draw for the year.

South Africa has not fared much better, with 4 wins, 3 losses and 2 draws for the year.

Both teams will rue lost opportunities during the year where execution and specifically goal kicking have haunted the Springboks in Particular. Their goal kickin records stands at a miserly 55% for the year and will lose you more tests than win.

Ireland will be without their inspirational captain Brian O'Driscoll and South Africa after a long season will bewithout the services of Arguably the best Hooker in world rugby Bismarck du Plessis, the athletic Andries Bekker, talisman Schalk Burger, Pierre Spies, Heinrich Brussow, Johan Goosen, Bryan Habana (yeah I know I am complaining a bit much here), Frans Steyn and Coenie Oosthuizen.

Will this end of season tour be a bridge too far for an injury riddled South African squad or will they be able to overcome an Irish team who hasn't convinced this year.

Likely SA matchday 22.

It seems to me that they, along with the high quality foreign players at each of the provinces are clogging up the pathways for young irish talent, and preventing Ireland from developing real strength in depth.

It was interesting that when the nzru provinces announced their squads for next year's super 15 tournament, 50 had never played super rugby before. Ireland province players such as howlett, laulala and afoa have long been confined to New Zealand history.

Steve Hansen therefore has 50 new faces to consider for international honours.

Declan Kidney has hardly 50 players to choose from in total.



Because of the culture though, pervasively rugby from cot to grave, that's most probably 50 players new to super rugby but still more than ready to play it! Wink

Thus the problem magnifies for Ireland in that provincial rugby is both the top level you get to in Ireland (apart from International) but its also in real terms the beginning too. New Provincial players are in no way as prepared for high end rugby as new super rugby players would be.

It bugs me to see people talk about this Ireland team as if there is a huge gap in ability between the old guard and our newer, younger generation. I personally think that is a load of crap. We have some really talented players coming through the ranks. Kidney has such a strong squad of players to pick from and create a winning team. Apart from NZ and SA (who have problem positions of their own at times) could Kidney really claim he doesn't have a fantastic player pool to choose from?

Who takes the blame for not looking at other options for certain positions? Surely that is a mistake on Kidney's part.

This is Wayne Smith's assessment:

Ireland
Declan Kidney had been able to transfer the drive and passion of Leinster, Munster and even Ulster into the national team. He coached Munster with a passion, but the national team is deteriorating. Players are ageing and Kidney is struggling to find the replacements. Ireland finished where they deserved to. Yes, they were without O’Driscoll throughout and O’Connell for the latter part of the Six Nations, but those two cannot be so far off retirement. What then?

Wales
Warren Gatland has a clear selection strategy based on size and speed. It is curious that several of these players have come through an unsuccessful under-20 team, but Gatland is obviously picking out the right ones. North, Cuthbert, Priestland, Davies and Halfpenny are going to be around for years. They are big players, physically and athletically. Now they need to start beating southern hemisphere sides on a regular basis.

Looks like Gatland has hit Wales' 'Golden Generation'.

Gatland has a clear plan of the way he wants his teams to play. The players must fit into his system. Kidney picks what he thinks are the best players and expect them to perform. The players are confused, BOD even admitted that a few weeks back.

Kidney is out of his depth at this level. We need a new coach with a 21st century gameplan and an injection of youth.

Not much appreciation for the youthful enthusiasm of Zebo or Murray.

But its not just me - the likes of Wayne Smith think that Ireland will be lost without BOD & POC.

and article in the Irish Indo today ...


In France, they call them "La génération des O" -- Brian O'Driscoll, Ronan O'Gara and Paul O'Connell.

In Ireland, few within the Irish squad dared to term the guiding trio of 21st century Irish rugby the "golden generation" -- but everyone else did.

Even Declan Kidney was unable to avoid the catch-all tag ascribed to this unprecedented harvest of rugby class, upon which this talented triptych have, until now, stamped their perennial imprint.

But their reign is not impervious to the march of time. As much as their collective 101 years, 343 international Test caps and 527 provincial appearances reflects an inordinate collection of experience, in the same breath the longevity of their service hints at the curtain calls soon to come.

Although it now seems virtually certain that O'Connell will heave his damaged frame upon the Lansdowne Road sward this Saturday evening, with O'Driscoll already struck down, the tension within the frayed Irish support has been palpable.

For sure, O'Gara's decline in the international pecking order has been confirmed well before this autumn, but his absence from the starting line-up this Saturday, particularly if O'Connell also joins O'Driscoll on the sidelines, would have caused palpitations among an unsettled squad, whose confidence is still being scooped from the floor following the Hamilton humiliation last summer.

Especially since it's recalled that the last time an Irish team lined out against higher tier opposition without at least one member of this terrific threesome was in the last century.

Little wonder that former Ireland manager Paul McNaughton was moved to observe that the arrival of O'Driscoll, O'Connell and O'Gara in almost cosmic coincidence could not but have propelled its national team to such unprecedented and consistent achievement.

"As a nation, we haven't had players as good as O'Connell, O'Driscoll and O'Gara on the same team," he noted.

Historically, from Kyle to Ward, and Gibson to Geoghegan, Ireland could create genius, but rarely did it coalesce or co-exist with colleagues and structures of sufficient quality.

But, as this trio's once shining embers start to dwindle, a warning echo from, ironically, another 'O', the less celebrated, but no less effective Donncha O'Callaghan, is instructive.

When he prepared for last year's World Cup summit with Wales, four years on from the doomed campaign when the golden generation should have been at its psychological and physical peak, his words reeked of regret.

Little did he know that crushing last-eight defeat to Wales in Wellington would expose the wounds to further salty incision. "The big thing for our group of lads is to maybe do something to separate ourselves from Irish teams that have gone before," O'Callaghan said before that fateful quarter-final 13 months ago.

"For the group of players who people talk about in the last few years as being a 'golden generation', what have we done that's separated us from the rest? If you're honest, not a whole lot."

A year on and Ireland are once more scrapping to remain within the top eight of the world rankings. Sustained achievement has eluded this country's most successful coterie of players, who, aside from that exhaustively compiled series in 2009, have become more familiar as the underdogs who can bite the best on their day.

Harsh critics might suggest that 'twas ever thus for Irish rugby teams; the provincial successes notwithstanding, the golden generation have remained unfulfilled in green and several boxes remain unticked for these players.

A win -- anywhere -- against New Zealand. A win in South Africa; although it might help if the two Unions developed the sort of relationship that might lead to a rare invite there. A last-four place in the World Cup.

And now? When the stage is bare and the veterans walk away into the sunset? Transition is a dirty word in professional sport, but the issue will be forced upon Ireland, as Andrew Trimble readily concedes.

"When Brian is not fit, it's a massive blow to the side," he admits. "We have to make do. Brian is going to have to be replaced. He'll never be replaced unless someone is given an opportunity. Now is the chance for someone else to step up."

Ireland's sluggishness to change is often illusory; statistically, neither Kidney or his predecessor Eddie O'Sullivan are as archly conservative as it may have seemed to a frustrated public.

uncertain

Often, the best players were better than the rest even when out of form. With O'Driscoll absent for some time, O'Connell's fitness always uncertain and O'Gara no longer a guaranteed starter for his province or country, the rest need to step up.

"You can be worried about it, whether the guys coming in could be a liability, that guys aren't tried and trusted in certain positions," adds Trimble.

"But we should look at it as giving guys an opportunity.

"There's nothing we can do about players who are missing. We have to get on with it."

O'Connell's prophetic words following the Grand Slam triumph -- "tough times are coming" -- reverberate with an eerie echo when viewed through the prisms of Ireland's struggles in recent times.

Whether times will get even tougher depends on how effectively the slowly yielding powers of the golden generation can be supplanted by their less gilded successors.

There was an incredible amount of bitching that he was selected to go to NZ and it was all down to Kidney's Munster bias apparently, nothing to do with his talent.

God help him if he puts a toe wrong on Saturday.

I notice you are staying very quiet about Murray! And as for Earls .... the abuse he has get is way over the top and really undeserved. Then Peter O'Mahony is only selected because he is from Munster.

Losing big characters like Jerry is considerable less stressful for those of us who worry about rampant yellow cards! Wink

You must be frantic about Heaslip then -

Jerry Flannery 1 YC with Munster. 1 Yellow for Ireland (which resulted in a suspension).

Heslip - 7 YCs for Leinster. 1 Red card for Ireland (which resulted in a suspension).

Yep, you'd prefer a 32 year old scrumhalf to start who according to Jean de Villiers in the paper today credits for providing the intercept try that meant they won the game last time they were here.

Oh I knew you'd do your homework, Sin é...even though it was a humourous stab at 'Animal' (Muppets) Flannery. But why are you always abusing little rascal Heaslip and poor gloomy Sexton??? Young enthusiastic guys, the both of them. I think the abuse they get is way over the top and undeserved.

Good work, another Ireland thread ruined by Sin's parochial bullsh1t. Sure, some of us only want to debate Irish rugby on a board designed for the task. How outrageous of us.

ah well Fly, you know how mud sticks. For instance, Pete tried has convinced everyone that Denis Leamy had a poor disciplinary record (he doesn't) and it went completely unnoticed that Heaslip has a horrendous one !

By the way, JF was not yellow carded in the French match for 'the kick' - he got his one and only YC against NZ back in 2006 down there and was not cited as he was playing the following week.

50 new sxv players next year for NZ sides alone? Did not know that.

Even at 10 a franchise thats a lot and they must be replacing 50 players from this year assuming squads are the same number.

Wonder what the % of those going are- mainly fringe players who didnt cut it or a few seasoned AB's retiring/ going offshore. Still a big number...

You're not getting it, Sin é. Don't continue defending Flannery. You don't need to. It - was - a - throw -away - joke. I liked him - as a player. I liked how passionate and 'mad' he was. I have no trouble saying it to your face. His Provincial colour, I don't give a damn about. I don't give a damn about Leamy's either, or Earl's or Zebo's. There are a lot on Munster players I love as players or certainly respect when they play for me at National level. So stop the study and research that you eternally get up to when someone mentions a player you happen to define as a ''Munster' player. I just see players. Good ones and not so good ones. Players I like and players I'm not so hot on - never defined by shirt colour.

When you can say the same then I'll listen to your concern about young players being abused unfairly. When you drop the red specs to the floor, your research and stats will be more useful.

Fly, I made the point that Jerry was a 'big character' who would be missed in the squad (you may have noticed that Notch has said that there is a lack of unity in the squad and that apparently the players are now retreating to sticking with their provincial pals and not mixing).

You couldn't help yourself and took a cheap shot.

I'll decide what it was Sin é, and it wasn't a cheap shot... Smile You see how you actually crave the divide you pretend to be frustrated by? You adore the idea that there is a 'them' to fight off, and an 'us' to protect.

I joke about Leinster players and criticise them in equal measure (Heaslip amongst them...but you already know that). You can't cheap-shot a player you like, you can humourously remember his more zealous personality.

But again I repeat, when you can openly talk about Irish players without refering to the colour of their shirt then I'll be more ready to listen to any moral highground comments directed at me. But then, you always evade that one because we both know I'm right about the deep love you have for the inter-Provincial feuds.

I think the funny thing about this is Sin says Wales are having their own golden era, because I was about to post the opposite.

In many ways, Gatlands options are very limited. He has much less choice in the outhalf position than Declan Kidney and a starting 10 who would probably not make the matchday squads of England, Ireland and France. He has nothing in the way of genuine world class players like O'Driscoll or O'Connell, that we were able to build a team around. He has a very good scrummaging tighthead to work with, but a lack of quality in the rest of the tight five. His backrow options are good without being genuinely imposing. Of course they have some hugely talented players. But its no 'golden era' of Welsh Rugby in terms of the player pool.

Its what he's done with the players he has that is genuinely impressive. Guys like Lydiate and Priestland are winning plaudits because he's getting the best out of what they offer. They have limitations to their games, they are not world class players. But he's got them doing their job very well. Getting the best out of them and the rest of the players.

I joke about Leinster players and criticise them in equal measure (Heaslip amongst them...but you already know that). You can't cheap-shot a player you like, you can humourously remember his more zealous personality.

But again I repeat, when you can openly talk about Irish players without refering to the colour of their shirt then I'll be more ready to listen to any moral highground comments directed at me. But then, you always evade that one because we both know I'm right about the deep love you have for the inter-Provincial feuds.

Fly, sorry to break it to you, but I have very little appreciation for your sense of humour. I find it self-indulgent waffle and frankly, boring.

But don't let that stop you in your attempt to humour the masses. thumbsup

Lambie at 10 is one of the best moves Meyer has made all year- he does take some convincing but seems to get there in the end.

With that single selection and JP back this is going to be one exciting Bok side and tour. Real intuitive skill and just the right amount of experience at 10 is something SA havnt had for a while.

Ireland need a second test vs AB performance then who knows...

Folks this thread is taking a serious turn for the worse, and we are not giving a great account of ourselves, bickering between ourselves. Lets leave Wales out of this, we should be discussing the Ireland and South African match, the squads, potential tactics, comparing players and what not.

Too many Irish threads lately have become quite negative with provincial bickering, I myself am an ulster fan but I could give two fecks what province a particular player comes from as long as they take the chance given to them. Ok our national team is going through a bit of a trough right not but peaks are never too far away, yes various things may have to change before that happens but they aren't going to happen before this match, so lets try and get back to discussing it, and involving our South African counter parts on here as I bet this pretty crappy reading for them too.

In many ways, Gatlands options are very limited. He has much less choice in the outhalf position than Declan Kidney and a starting 10 who would probably not make the matchday squads of England, Ireland and France. He has nothing in the way of genuine world class players like O'Driscoll or O'Connell, that we were able to build a team around. He has a very good scrummaging tighthead to work with, but a lack of quality in the rest of the tight five. His backrow options are good without being genuinely imposing. Of course they have some hugely talented players. But its no 'golden era' of Welsh Rugby in terms of the player pool.

Its what he's done with the players he has that is genuinely impressive. Guys like Lydiate and Priestland are winning plaudits because he's getting the best out of what they offer. They have limitations to their games, they are not world class players. But he's got them doing their job very well. Getting the best out of them and the rest of the players.

Delusional

Right on the money. World class props to start with. Very good 2nd row. Great backrow. Goodish halfbacks (I rate Phillips), and a few world class backs.

Only real weakness is at hooker.

Yeah this is very true, cave and earls are very good players in their own right but they don't have the same sort of commanding presence on the pitch, they don't have his leadership. Also both aren't as defensively strong as bod. Lets just hope who ever gets the 13 jersey stands tall and doesn't let the thought of them filling bods shoes get too them.

Dick, well said man. Whisky

I swore I wouldn't comment on these threads until Kidney was gone. But, Id love to see us do well in two hard games.

And once we have our seeding, we openly start looking for a high-level successor to Kidney. That would do me fine.

I hate that you can't have a civil conversation on 606v2. You have an opinion and people act like you've kicked a child in the teeth. Jeez.

Rolling Eyes

I HATE what this site has become. When Ulster play, I use 606v2 to talk about the game and I get excited for it. It's all part of the build-up. When Ireland play, it gets so bad on here I just want the game to be over and done with. I'm going down to the Aviva on Saturday and I couldn't care less right now. There's none of that anticipation. How could there be, with all this nonsense going on.

Can't believe Kidney would seriously pick Zebo to play fullback!

I've always thought that Zebo would make a great fullback as he has all the raw materials, but he hasn't played there at a high enough level yet. He is still learning the game and his defensive positioning is still questionable on the wing never mind the wider scope of fullback. To drop him in at 15 against the Boks is a desperate act of a floundering coach bereft of ideas, who doesn't care one iota for the welfare of a promising young player.

Maybe Kidney is staking out his scapegoat to ensure the media tigers don't pick up his scent if they come hunting after the game ala EOS with Bowe in France 06? Let's hope Zebo isn't hung out to dry for three years like Bowe was.

Would any other International coach on the planet select an inexperienced player and then play them out of position just to see what they're really made of? DK has undoubtedly lost it, and we can only hope Zebo learns fast - very fast.

I don't think Declan Kidney would do that to a young player. We criticise the job he's doing sometimes but he's a good man, who wants the best for the players under him. He wouldn't hang a player out to dry on purpose.

It's possible he'd pick a player for a role he is patently unsuited for, causing him to be exploited ruthlessly by the opposition and then scapegoated in the media. We call it "Tom Court Tighthead" syndrome...

It's just that... he'll think it's the least worst idea. Maybe it is in this instance if it happens. I don't think so, I hope so though.

Clive Woodward selected Jason Robinson at full back for england when he had very little experience of the position.

Similarly, matt giteau was selected at scrum half for australia.

Jamie roberts at center for wales when he had no previous experience of the position.

It happens all the time. Just this week, clive woodward said that he would pick delon armitage in the center for england even though he plays all his rugby at fullback.

+1, its a joke. There's sometimes a sense that posters are holding back on their opinions to prevent impeding pandemonium. Similar to rugby club on sky sports of late. They're all just trying to keep the peace, & nothing interesting is said anymore. Then sin comes along and posts exactly the same thing he's been posting for about a year, and people rise to it. Sure look we can't blame him really

Sorry for going off track, needs to be addressed

The players who have the best chance of succeeding him, are the players who will make their own waves.

There is no replacing him. Like Mike Gibson before him, they come but once in a generation.

In my own,totally un-biased, opinion? The future at 13 is either of, Bowe, O Malley, or Macken.

Saves a lot of time.

Peace, my Irish brethren. However bad it's got for Ireland recently, let's just say that you've never had to slap yourself on the head and try to get drunk with inordinate speed to kill the pain because you've just seen Dan Parks run into the field wearing your national '10' shirt.

Just quickly, the benefit of age is perspective and unfortunately for some of the younger posters here (25 and under), you will simply have to realise that you probably won't see the likes of O'Driscoll for another generation at least.

When I started watching rugby, I assumed that there was a long line of halfbacks of similar quality to Roy Laidlaw and John Rutherford just waiting for their chance to trot onto the paddock and be magnificent. Good christ almighty, was I wrong about that.

Incidentally, I've always found that the sheer volume of chat on the Irish threads was one of the best things about these boards and you shouldn't stop that. Just that there's no obvious need for sledging when you're talking about the national team.

Morning Pete, Taute is still only 21, a very promising player, plays mainly 15, but has played 13 for the Lions in the super XV.

He is big strong fast and has a good boot on him, Meyer really wants to use him at 15, that is according to him his best position, but due to the injuries Taute is filling in at 13, he didn't have the best of games in his second test, but he should be OK.

Cheers, Haven't seen much of him. Big, strong and fast is a bad combination for Irish defences to deal with.

You were pretty down during the early parts of the championship you feeling better about Meyer now that he is playing goosen and lambie?

Worried about your backrow? Missing lots of guys but still looks very strong to me.

I can't say I am happy, but then it seems as if Meyer is slowly getting there.

He has had some challenges though.

In the nine tests so far this year, Habana, Frans steyn and JP Pietersen has only played together in 2 tests.

That makes a dent in any backline when world class players like that are continuously missing.

For this tour, only JP Pietersen is there.

You can see our forward pack, despite missing Bismarck, Coenie Oosthuizen, Andries Bekker, Schalk Burger, Juan Smit and Pierre Spies is still decent quality.

So yeah, Meyer has had some challenges.

You take Bismarck, Coenie Oosthuizen, Andries Bekker, Schalk Burger, Juan Smit, Pierre Spies, Johan Goosen, Frans Steyn and Bryan Habana out of any matchday team in the world, you have to replace them with 9 others.

It will most definitely make an impact on your team.

As soon as Goosen got the nod I thought the whole Springbok attacking mentallity changed, you guys got more French overnight almost! Springbok

I assume you guys are targetting 100% wins up here?

I think you should probably win the first game against us, the only place I can see us matching you is possibly in the scrums but we dip awfully when our bench comes on where as you guys maintain a high standard.

Mate, if we win all three I will poopie myself.

Meyer's record this year is 4 wins, 2 draws, 3 losses.

His record will look a lot better considering 7 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses.

But with all the injuries I expect we will lose one somewhere along the line.

I am waiting to see what team Kidney selects mate.

But not too confident.

Our pack should be OK, 9 and 10 will be OK, JP Pietersen should be good considering his pre injury form, the rest I am not to confident about.

Our backline from J de Villiers onwards doesn't look too inspiring.

Is it fair to say both teams have a bit to prove here?

Pieterson v Skrela... er sorry Trimble should be a good battle

I'd say Kidneys job will be on the line if Ireland drop out of the top 8 this Autumn.

My biggest concern is that we will play directly into the Boks hands... i.e. Murray will slow down the ruckball and we'll kick a lot (and poorly), or try and move wide off slow ball. D'arcy, Bowe and Trimble well end up taking a lot of poor ball into contact and our backrow won't be able to match yours physically without Ferris and SOB.

If we're to win this then we'll need our pack to front up and provide a solid set piece platform, our backrow to work their bollix off to secure the ball and Murray to get good quick ball to Sexton.

Given how we've played generally under Kidney there isn't much reason to be optimistic but hey ho I'm a glass half full person.... Smile

Besides Pienaar is playing so at least there'll be at least one Ulsterman on the winning team..... Whistle
