Welcome to “The Fear of God”, a blog to follow Ireland’s progress in the Rugby World Cup 2007.This will be a collaborative blog, with several writers offering their opinions and viewpoints on the subject before, during and possibly even after the tournament. Hopefully the debate will be lively, and it will be good fun. If you would like to join in as a contributor, please email me on gerryosullivan[at]mac.com (replace the [at] with @) for login/joining instructions.The blog gets it name from the RTE documentary “Reaching For Glory”, during which Ireland’s Paul O’Connell demands of his team-mates during a pep-talk if they had put the fear of God in anyone that day.
