Coming into the weekend we had hope, we had late Saturday night rugby (never a good idea) and the possibility of silverware. How was your Saturday night? Going in I was hopeful but trying to remain realistic. I felt that if Ireland could stay close, stay strong and start well the French may retreat, especially … More Ireland v France, outbursts and mute buttons.
This Halloween Ireland march over the a locked down Paris to take on the resurgent French with the whiff of a title in the air. A whiff which is slightly different to the smell we had over the last 14 months. As I write this, only the irish team has been named but what are … More Ireland v France, for all the marbles.
I allowed an extra day to let the weekends results settle and to wait for the online backlash to subside a bit before reviewing the Irish exodus from Europe. Firstly, this is not the end of days like many would have you believe, losses happen in sport, it is all about what happens next after … More The Irish exit Europe, but it is not the end of days
Here we go! The biggest game of the season is hours away. The teams have been named and I haven’t been this excited to watch 30 fellas run around in shorts since…………… well that is private and for another blog Leinster welcome the scalp they want in Saracens to the Aviva this weekend and Saracens … More Leinster v Saracens, 2 teams chase 1 scalp.
The eve of the Guinness pro 14 final is upon us. Leinster take on Ulster in the culmination of a mad season. A season that delivered for the most part. 1 finalist is expected; maybe the other one is not? Coming out of lockdown and back into the season wasn’t easy for any team, and … More Ulster v Leinster: The Dog v The Machine
That was an emotional rollercoaster of a weekend for Irish rugby. Leinster v Munster had a lot of people reaching for the bottle and then Ulster v Edinburgh was so exciting it had people reaching for the Xanax. Starting in Dublin where Munster’s momentum hinged on a performance and a result against a Leinster side … More The Madigan show and a cure for insomnia
Red alert! Battle stations! We are back! Not only is rugby back in this part of the world but we start with the interpro’s, we start with the biggest interpro. Leinster v Munster kicks off on Saturday at 19:35.
Firstly, I hope everyone reading is safe and well. I hope the lockdown and our way out of it has not been too hard for you. It is tough on everyone, but together we can get through this. Now onto the rugby. Our game is back this weekend. The pro14 is back this weekend starting … More Covid, the Pro 14 and great expectations.

What a difference a week makes. Last week the Irish rugby community online where wondering how the team would wake up and play better, how Murray gets picked and how Farrell is supposed to be adding tricks into the setup. Most thought that welcoming the Welsh would show where the team actually where, that being … More Ireland take the Welsh, Sexton takes Poite
https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-nq2ex-d24975 Lets get political! Politics is a mucky game! facebook.com/thecouchpunditireland thecouchpunditireland@gmail.com
The internet after an Ireland game is truly a horrific place. The reactions are mostly so far over the top that it is bananas. This week’s reviews spoke about play-acting, Cooney v Sexton and having expectations that make no real sense.
https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-nqwjx-d0372f After a self imposed online exile, The Couch Pundit is back with a mid season review of the provinces and a look at the Ireland squad for the 6 Nations facebook.com/thecouchpunditireland thecouchpunditireland@gmail.com

So the IRFU are trying to do the exact same thing that we are. That being get the ghost of RWC 2019 put away before we all sit down for Christmas dinner, a valiant idea and one that is probably correct. The actual findings on the other hand, may take longer to wash the stink … More RWC findings,Nucifora and babies with bathwater

So the Irish provinces marched into week 2 of Europe in fine fettle. The ghost of the cup that shall never be mentioned looks to have been exorcised after a clean sweep in week 1. Could they continue in week 2?
https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-vgzi3-c88b54 So it happened again. Who knew saying high viz makes you more visible on the roads would open such a can of worms.

So Mondays after any kind of bad defeat is always tough. No matter if it’s us playing or supporting, both bite hard. This one bites a bit harder than most.
So we are sitting here, 1 cheek on the chair and 1 cheek in the air. Nervous excitement and fear whiff through the air. Ireland moved on from the group into the quarter finals. Not just any normal quarter final but a chance to take a shot at the world’s greatest team.
https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-uzpjc-c358b1 After a week in the real world, it is time for episode 9. Finishing the group stages and marching into the quarters against the mighty All Blacks. So, are you telling me, that in a one off game, Ireland cant beat them??? http://www.thecouchpunditireland.com thecouchpunditireland@gmail.com facebook.com/thecouchpunditireland facebook.com/diablodcmusic
So Ireland arrived to take on Samoa at the end of a rollercoaster of a set of group games. More ups and downs than Twin Peaks.
https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-hkj3b-c1e6fe Ireland got the bonus point against Russia, but could they win for winning? Journos changing their minds about what they wanted pre game, some strange off field decisions about injured players and do central contracts mean a player MUST be picked?

So we roll into game three of this world cup campaign and the rollercoaster of emotions continues to rumble onwards.
As we sit here on a Monday morning, gutted and confused, I think it is time to kill some myths that have popped up since the match against a monster Japanese side.
https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-j2g4z-c13749 Ireland took on the hosts looking for a confidence builder, but in reality, it was a confidence shaker. Japan played like top seeds. Ireland had no answers. Lets look at the game and the predictible social media nonsense. thecouchpunditireland@gmail.com facebook.com/thecouchpunditireland http://www.thecouchpunditireland.com
Brought to you by The Couch Pundit website So after a settling performance against Scotland, Ireland now faces the hosts on Saturday morning at 8:15 (Bray standard time). So what should we expect? What is the general feeling ahead of the game and what way will Ireland play the game?
https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-yz4yc-c0f84f Lets chat about Ireland and how there is positivity in the world again after the Scotland game. What to expect from Japan and Joe’s selection Referees are under the microscope for not taking care of players. Online interactions have changed recently and we need to change them back thecouchpunditireland@gmail.com http://www.thecouchpunditireland.com facebook.com/thecouchpunditireland
So now the trick is not getting carried away, even though it is really hard not to get carried away after the last 12 months. Coming into the match on Sunday morning, we all were sitting on the fence. Supporters wondered if Ireland still had it, would they be able to execute and strangle the … More Ireland bust some myths and Scottish hearts in RWC opener.
So after a 2 year build up the world cup is finally here! Today kicks off with Japan taking on Russia in the opening game and the first game of Ireland’s pool. Starting with a prediction, I think Japan start and finish with a win, and qualify out of the group.

Brought to you by The Dugout – Live in D2 on Harcourt St – 6th September So another weekend of preseason is over.
