I'm enjoying it, it's an intriguing match up
Agree with this. If I supported either side I feel it would be intense.

Not much flowing rugby in the first half.

Ireland not showing much attack till the 39th minute.

Fair yellow card.

The Irish have spoiled any chance of quick ball at just about every maul. The others, the delay has been Ratima.

Need to get onto the front foot.

I must admit, if this was a boks game, I would be raging. You guys are showing incredible restraint.

Fair enough. I've not seen anything at this level or super rugby to suggest Cortez should be ahead of him but I didn't watch a huge amount of SR this year

Yeah but very briefly. No one is going to call that.

Can't miss that tackle. We have a try!

Christ alive the discipline in this game is appalling.

Some great moments by Ireland though, they've stepped up and are now playing with international intensity.

Duponts law completely out the window then, thought so from the England game last week. Can't blame the refs, they can't watch both the escorts keeping clear and the rest of the team properly retreating until onside.

Even relatively average AB’s teams in the past would make good decisions all the time. This lot make so many poor decisions all over the field

Not sure the laws stipulate a time.

Anyway., ireland look a lot more energetic in this second half

Pleased to see a few blocking runs called

You technically shouldn't be allowed to drag tackled players into touch but that is common, can't see a split second knee drop before being carried over the line being called

Ireland really not built any continuity. Too many errors all over the pitch..

One of many laws that seem a bit optional.

I wish they'd keep hold of the ball for more than 30 seconds, this is so stop-start
