Brief story:
Full squad available including O'Driscoll, Geordan Murphy, Eoin Reddan (Murphy (leistershire) and Reddan (Wasps) are available after the completion of the Guisness premiership in England - Wasps won - (the tribute to Dallaglio on his final game was hard to watch) - the game was good though and surprisely there were uncontested scrums at the end of the match

Anyways Ireland have never beaten the Kiwis on their soil - but with the rebuilding phase the Kiwis are undergoing and the strength of the squad available - there's hope (TG or TLH will quickly scotch this with some ridiculous odds

Rugby-Irish eye rare chance to topple the All Blacks

WELLINGTON, June 2 (Reuters) - Ireland believe they have their best chance yet of finally beating New Zealand when they tackle their new-look side in Wellington on Saturday.
The closest the Irish have come to beating the All Blacks in 20 meetings dating back to 1905 was when they drew 10-10 in Dublin in 1973.
But Ireland's players think they have a real chance of ending the drought against a New Zealand team just starting to rebuild after last year's World Cup flop.
