Irishmen Primed For All Blacks Battle
Irishmen Primed For All Blacks Battle
Eight Leinstermen will start for Ireland this Saturday as they take on the two-time defending champions.
Joe Schmidt has named a starting side that includes eight players from Leinster for Saturday's quarterfinal showdown with New Zealand.
The suspension of electric center Bundee Aki has thrown a wrench into Ireland's plans, but there will be no shortage of experience out there for the men in green.
Between the halfback pairing of Conor Murray and Johnny Sexton, and the experience throughout the rest of the squad, Ireland are fully capable of holding their own against the All Blacks.
