Eben Etzebeth's claim of Irish arrogance has been bizarrely dismissed as 'bullsh*t' by the under-achieving former England player Andy Goode.

Etzebeth stated that most Irish players were already overly confident of progressing all the way to the final and that “12 of the 23” Ireland players told him that they would see them in the final while shaking his hand after the final whistle. As it turned out, Etzebeth was right because the All Blacks held on to beat Ireland in that Test and eliminate them from the World Cup.
“I reckon if anyone said it they would have said, ‘Hopefully, see you in the final’. Meaning we know we are both going our separate paths now,” Goode continued his verbal tirade against Etzebeth.
