How slow was Jordie there? JGP telegraphed it and he still was miles away and jogging

Ireland have done this type of game to a lot of teams in 6N. At home when like this you wonder why they have never shown up in a world cup.

A clear card. Perhaps they could put me out of my misery and bin off the whole team.

Since when have the ABs used the kick as their main attacking weapon?

EDIT: We score from a glorious flowing move immediately after my comment

It doesnt seem like the best tactic when you fundamentally are behind because of lack of ball

Kicks like that are what you do when you don't know what else to do.

That looks like a classy try. Was going to comment on just how bad Coles' throw was at the lineout!

The Irish not rolling away after failed choke tackles, and ripped it on the ground.

Ooh, that was forward after all.

Think there was a high tackle missed in there earlier.
