Irish rugby fan living in the states. Watched the game here at 10pm friday night, drowned my sorrows afterwards but I have to say Wales were immense. Brilliant game that lived up to its hype, but the better team won.
The scary thing is, with the youth on Wales' side this team will get better.
Who plays the ball out of their on 22 in the first couple of mintues of a world cup 1/4 final? The defensive line speed was world class and every one of your big game players had a big game.
Keep that intensity up and no one will stop you. Hope you do it!
Wales for the World Cup

Mojiebhoy, cheers fella
Talent does help, but Gatland has to take huge praise here. He took the lads to the middle of nowhere in Poland for conditioning. The camps worked, even had deep freeze cryogenic chambers which goes down to -120 C
He has given us the best chance. Hope we continue and beat the French and that it is NZ vs SA in a bruising semi encounter.
