Looks like the Irish captain and inspirational center will miss the first pool match due to a sinus injury. While the team physicians expect him to be ready for the second pool match and certainly for the all-important test against Argentina, a prolonged down-time or repeat-injury would worsen Ireland’s chances of advancing to the Quarter Finals.

    Oh no!! O’Driscoll won’t be able to play against Namibia, the Agrican powerhouse! Whatever will they do??!! I know, they can call me up and I’ll score a hat trick against them. Get serious inbreed!

    Well, strike my first comment. O’Driscoll is back in for the opener. At least the Namibia match is now assured to go Ireland’s way :)
