    France are getting turnovers too easily.

    Yeah. Our back row seem to be a millisecond slow getting to the ruck.

    Briggs too involved at the gainline there?

    She does that, but usually she is very good at protecting the ball.

    A bit. She just seemed a bit naive going in - left the ball exposed.

    The forwards seem off pace. Spence, O'Reilly fairly quiet. Front row anonymous.

    Not clearing out rucks quickly enough.

    Good maul again. Good movement in the back line too. A bit of possession & we should do well.

    That's two good steals at the lineout by Ireland.

    Molloy gone off. Big loss.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,075 ✭✭✭✭vienne86


    Great turnover....I thought they were heading for the line there.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,436 ✭✭✭✭Dial Hard


    Mark is the best rule ever.

    Unless it's the opposition calling it.

    Fitzer is good for the auld turnover. Very strong in contact.

    A bit high, that tackle, though I think the red only spotted it when the crowd reacted.

    Srupid tackle but I think Fiona was right, it was over-exuberance rather than malice.

    Brilliant try save there.

    Unreal defence.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,075 ✭✭✭✭vienne86


    That was a great bit of mauling by the pack They're not going to lie down.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,436 ✭✭✭✭Dial Hard


    Now that's a maul.

    And again.

    Support seems very slow to arrive. Players getting isolated.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,075 ✭✭✭✭vienne86


    Molloy gone for good now.


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 9,994 Mod ✭✭✭✭sullivlo


    Peat was over the line there.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,075 ✭✭✭✭vienne86


    Oh for heaven's sake, you just shouldn't drop that.

    Three shocking lineouts in a row from us.

    Ireland need to score after all this pressure.


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 9,994 Mod ✭✭✭✭sullivlo


    Same as last week. Dominating but making stupid mistakes close to the line.

    Brilliant defence. They must be knackered.
