This was one of those 'Does a bear shit in the woods?' questions. I get your point Yorick. Sorry oim a bit tick! What I can't understand is why you enjoy beating them so much. They haven't been very good recently. Why does it matter so much to you Australians?

Historical context. Surely the Irish should understand that. If you were to gain the upper hand in Rugby, and consistently beat the English would you not relish it? Would you not relish grinding the collective pride of the English Rugby world into the proverbial mud?!
Muhahahahar!
VENGANCE for the insulting disdain from years past! NEVER will we forget the attitude of the first test teams to our shores, always we will make them eat any traces, any remnants of old arrogant sporting superiority! Muhahahahahahar!
