All Blacks legend Colin Mead is backs Wales to beat Ireland and progress to their first ever World Cup final, in the New Zealand Herald.
"While we'll all be looking for an All Blacks win against Argentina, there are some interesting quarter-final games this weekend, particularly Wales versus Ireland.
"I was with my brother Stan yesterday and we have a jug of beer riding on the result: I think Wales will win, and he's backing Ireland.
"Wales are very interesting. They've been playing pretty good rugby and were unlucky against South Africa when they lost 17-16 in Wellington. They won the rest of their pool games and had a huge game against Samoa, which they came out of pretty well.
"If they can get through against Ireland, I think they can go right through to the final."
