Revenge not right motivation, says Wood

KEITH WOOD claimed Ireland would be wrong to use their World Cup defeat to Argentina four years ago as motivation for Sunday’s Adelaide Oval showdown.

The Pumas’ 28-24 quarter-final play-off victory in Lens is still regarded as one of the biggest shocks in the tournament’s history and the teams square up this weekend with a last-eight berth again the prize.

Skipper Wood, though, is not convinced planning a revenge mission is the best approach to such a crucial game.
