    Naive defence from JOC

    James O Connor with an awful defensive blunder.

    Very awkward first scrum. Nice to see a crooked feed pinged.

    terrible. I remember doing that at u14 against Kilkenny College and being embarrassed (and screamed at by my coach!)

    Cruden's nice start looks a bit shakey now.

    Ah, a not straight call. what a rare beast.

    Edit: speaking of rare beasts...a penalty against McCaw!!

    completely crooked from Smith too, where's the consistency?


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,599 ✭✭✭matthew8


    Smith threw it into the backrow there.

    Well JOC had a good contribution to winning that penalty.

    6-7 to NZ


  • Registered Users Posts: 425 ✭✭CGD


    Does the ref not know that Mcaw is not allowed to be penalised!

    Good response from OZ

    Hooper is class


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,182 ✭✭✭crisco10


    Thats 2 steals by Hooper..

    AAC lost his support there...


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,433 ✭✭✭✭thomond2006


    Would Oz play Hooper and Pocock in the same backrow? They'd rule the breakdown.


  • Administrators Posts: 53,543 Admin ✭✭✭✭✭awec


    NZ restarts are terrible.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,221 ✭✭✭Ugo Monye spacecraft experience


    bar the first few minutes Cruden has been awful.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,221 ✭✭✭Ugo Monye spacecraft experience


    what the hell was McCaw at there. Penalty machine today


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,433 ✭✭✭✭thomond2006


    Joubert penalises McCaw for coming in the side! :eek:

    I'm waiting to see pigs flying outside...


  • Administrators Posts: 53,543 Admin ✭✭✭✭✭awec


    That's McCaws third at least.

  • Registered Users Posts: 468 ✭✭Gidea


    Lol at Joubert to Mcaw "I understand your question, but these are the rules":pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,433 ✭✭✭✭thomond2006


    oh ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffs

    Completely brainless


  • Administrators Posts: 53,543 Admin ✭✭✭✭✭awec


    Cruden has sucked, and then gets a chargedown try.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,737 ✭✭✭✭Pudsy33


    Its hard enough to beat these lads without giving away freebies.

    No more jinxes please.


  • Administrators Posts: 53,543 Admin ✭✭✭✭✭awec


    Aussie backline seems a bit disconnected to me. Every so often they seem to get confused, or the guy on the ball looks to pass and realises there's nobody there.

    Both the 10 and 12 are inexperienced, that can't help.
