Ireland in NZ

[Tichtheid]

NZ have had a couple of lazy runners like that, it’s a classic POM move

[Torquemada 1420]

3 rucks in a row NZ player lying around at the base of the ruck to slow Ire ball.

This game will be a connoisseurs' watch on who are the real masters of cheating at the breakdown.

{EDIT} Make that 4.......

If Sexton is off due to concussion, he's gone for the next game as well with the new guidelines right?

Correct

[Torquemada 1420]

That was excellent by the NZ wing. Errr.......... sorry, Lowe.

[Tichtheid]

Nice finish, I was just thinking Ireland could do with Stockdale bringing a bit of biff, but Ringrose did well

[Jb1981]

camroc1 shitting the bed. it's all the refs fault.

Go on, share some goodies. quote them on PR (copy to clipboard) and paste a post over here for a larf.

Please

There haven’t been too many histrionics. The thing that is most impressive is the sheer perseverance. It has been this type of thing with the odd non-complaint in the middle.

No Irish infringements spotted yet, naturally.

NZ crabbing ?

NZ pushing early there.

And again.

Hit in the air !

Too easy.

Crocodile roll in the ruck ?

That's an awful decision-blatant knock on.

[ASMO]

Thats how they should have played the first half, patience and quick recycle and no stupid offloads.

[Raggs]

How the hell did POM think he was getting away with that?

[Torquemada 1420]

At risk of agreeing with the swarm, that's a BS pen.

[sockwithaticket]

I love seeing O'Mahoney reffed properly at the breakdown.

[convoluted]

It blew out our way first half through lots of luck.
Need to give Sammi the hooker at least 30 minutes.

Camroc is probably beating his wife as we speak

Yeah, against the best teams like the All Blacks you have to blend the Farrell approach with the Joe Schmidt approach.
Can't play as loose as them. Especially not if you don't have enough speed in the backs.

[Torquemada 1420]

Hmmm.No chance of a replay of that incident?

[Kiwias]

The one on POM for reaching into the ruck and picking the ball up?

Ah now, there's laughing at the swarm and there's being a nasty prick failing to get near the concept of humour.

He stepped over and picked the ball.

Ha ha. He’s working himself up nicely there

[I like neeps]

Peter O'Mahoney and Van Der flier need to work on their head holding so everything that happens to them can be tmo reviewed. Hopefully Farrell runs extra sessions for them in the week and they can be right there with it next week. Begs the question why van Der flier is still on the pitch if he had to stay down holding his head? Surely have an hia for safety.

Yeah. That's over the mark.

[ASMO]

Porter is just not a good prop, on either side.

[ASMO]

Tackling optional?

[Torquemada 1420]

Hmmm. Savea has been a passenger in work rate through Soup but you let him run like that......

Feeble defending too.

[Raggs]

The one on POM for reaching into the ruck and picking the ball up?

He stepped over and picked the ball.

Whilst still having an AB player rucking with him... thus being in a ruck.

[Ymx]

Savea had no right to get to the try line there

[salanya]

Hmmm, great play by the 8 or a total tackling implosion by Ireland?
Shocking defense.

[Tichtheid]

Good try, but three missed tackles

[Ymx]

Torq struggling with basic laws

[Torquemada 1420]

Try and yellow for neck tackle

[Jb1981]

They like getting in the referee’s ear, don’t they.

Picked the ball up from the middle of the ruck. He came from an onside position but that is irrelevant.

Hand is on Carberry's shoulder

[Blackmac]

This lot of officials wouldn't piss on the Irish if they were on fire.

[Torquemada 1420]

FM, it's incessant. And the worst one is off the pitch.

If that's no try and given as high tackle it has to be a pen try.

[Raggs]

It looks like shoulder to me, bloody clse and could go either way.

[I like neeps]

The seeth from O'Mahoney we're about to see is going to be epic!

[Jb1981]

Good call, that didn’t look high on the replay. Very close to it, but not quite.

[ASMO]

Sboulder or not, its still high, and should be a PT

[sockwithaticket]

I'd fucking reverse the penalty for O'Mahoney's conduct.
