    Pocock in doubt for Ireland clash

    The Wallabies' sole openside flanker at the World Cup, David Pocock, is in doubt for Australia's Group C clash with Ireland on Saturday night because of a sore back.

    Pocock sat out today's captain's run at Eden Park and will be given until tomorrow to prove his fitness.

    Coach Robbie Deans has few options to replace Pocock with specialists No.7s Beau Robinson and Matt Hodgson omitted from Australia's 30-man squad.

    Force backrower Ben McCalman is the likely replacement with Waratahs No.8 Wycliff Palu moved to the bench.

    Worrying that our two best players (Ioine, Pockock) bar Genia, could miss the most important pool clash.

    Bench......hopefully no game time, It's a crunch match and he'll inevitably go missing!

    Chuck Norris has the greatest Poker-Face of all time. He won the 1983 World Series of Poker, despite holding only a Joker, a Get out of Jail Free Monopoly card, a 2 of clubs, 7 of spades and a green #4 card from the game Uno.
