Before the clash of titans between Ireland and South Africa (Saturday, 9 p.m.), Ronan O’Gara spoke about the strengths and weaknesses of the Clover XV, as well as his points record broken by Jonathan Sexton.

A stampede in Auvergne. This is one of the latest images of Ronan O’Gara before the start of the World Cup. As he takes stock of the first three days of the championship and begins the second preparation of his Rochelais, “ROG” spoke about the start of the World Cup for Ireland. Ruthlessly efficient against Romania and Tonga, the Clover XV walks on water before confronting the South African mountains (Saturday, 9 p.m.).

For the Maritimes manager, the Irish World Cup has not yet started. “Ireland have been playing very well for a few years and it’s great to see. But the competition really begins against South Africa on Saturday. It will be a huge challenge and I am confident that Ireland are focused on putting in a great performance.”

The year or never for Ireland

Arriving on the third day without major injuries, unlike the Springboks, the Greens seem in the form of their lives. For those who aspire, one day, to take the reins of the XV of Clover, the latest “slams” are fallible and could be put in difficulty by the overpower of the South African pack. “Of course Ireland have flaws! All teams have them. The question is whether the Springboks will find them and rush into them. Are the Irish capable of stopping the scrum? South Africa and its pack of forwards? And are the Boks capable of stopping the fast play and speed of the Irish? We’ll see but I can’t wait!” continues the reigning double European champion.

With only two defeats in their last twenty-nine matches, Josh van der Flier’s teammates are fitter than ever. As the world’s leading nation, Ireland has no room for error. As a reminder, the Greens have never gone beyond the quarter-final stage in the World Cup. “I think this is the year ever for Ireland. They’ve had a good start to the World Cup, but it’s going to be five games if they get to the final. They have a lot of work to do to get to that stage. of the competition, but we are still far from it” prophesies “ROG”, who has no longer been Ireland’s top points scorer since September 16.

The record ? I didn’t feel much

Face au Tonga, Jonathan Sexton surpassed Munster legend thanks to a test marked with a smile. With 1090 points on the clock, the Leinsterman is now alone in the world, after a decade of O’Gara domination. But the former Clover opener expected it. “I didn’t feel much. This record lasted for ten years and I was shocked that it lasted that long. The only way for me to keep this record would have been if Jonathan retired. But when he decided to extend until the World Cup, it was obvious that he was going to break the record” admits the Californian by birth.

“It’s something that happens a lot, it’s sport! I’m not disappointed at all, I stopped playing ten years ago and am super lucky and privileged to have experienced what I experienced . I am very happy for Johnny, he works a lot and he is very serious. For me, having the opportunity to coach La Rochelle and win two titles with La Rochelle is phenomenal. When I was a player I was very competitive , but it’s been a long time now!”. Really, Ronan?
