    Hon Sexton! Murray going well, looks to know exactly what he's doing at every ruck which is not something we've seen with Ireland

    1/2p kicking. Would have liked to see Jonny get another shot

    Jonny can score tries instead!

    Force way to passive in defense, this could be 60 points

    Gatlandball is designed around scrum halves like Murray. One of the strengths of this gameplan is its clarity of purpose.

    Listening on radio, assume Jonny took the line kick off that penalty?

    Australia will have to be asked a lot of questions if this turns into a rout. Early days I know, but no sign of anything being put up by FOR.

    Disgrace that Force aren't putting their first team out for the first (and probably ever after this) game with the Lions. Their next S15 match is a dead rubber

    Sexton stand out performer so far, the gulf in class with him and Farrell is massive.

    Jaysus, Jamie absolutely dumped by an outhalf!

    Sexton's running the show


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,612 ✭✭✭Lelantos


    Murray for a try here?

    Hes playing excellent though. Pure class, carrying loads and making lots of breaks. If he keeps this up he'll be starting Lions 8 again.

    The crowd is dead.

    Their next S15 match is a rivalry with the Waratahs. If the Lions wanted to play them at full strength they should have played them last weekend when they had no game.

    Why does Murray always slow down within 5-10 metres of the tryline, seen him do it several times regardless of what jersey he is wearing

    My dad is saying the same. So slow on the try line and killed the momentum! No idea why he does it.

    Its been the Ireland show so far.

    Doesn't make a difference, it was poor play. Anyway he's been good otherwise.

    I thought it was the opposite, number 9 bit Healy.

    For best to make up ground, you sort of feel that he can't miss any more lineout throws today.
