    Its now against the rules to kick the ball?:confused:

    .....through a formed ruck, another "safety" ruling in our increasingly emasculated game.

    Kearney standing still to take that kick is the coolest thing I've ever seen on a rugby pitch.

    That's three great carries by Henderson.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,413 ✭✭✭chupacabra

  • Registered Users Posts: 12,789 ✭✭✭✭mfceiling

    Fantastic clear out from furlong

    Hendy just Etzebeth on his hole. Definite GIF required

    Our jersey is terrible. Never mind the actual clash of colours which is terrible but the actual kit itself looks ugly. What are those stupid stripes on the shoulder? It looks as if we ran out of dye or something. Stylish it is not.

    A rule that makes sense, im guessing youve never got one of those boots through the rucks on your head buddy

    Emasculated eh? Nothing says manly like concussions and CTE

    The IRFU are determined to root all Irishness out it seems, replace all the Irish players for foreigners (Aki for Zebo) and now jettison the green jersey for a faded All Black set.


    I'm calling Joe Duffy to complain now, but he's not answering.

    But when there's no head or body within a mile it makes a mockery of the whole thing. Swinging a boot Inna crowded area is already penalisable under dangerous play.

    We are so good. :)


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


    This is a really good performance by Ireland so far. Excellent discipline too.

    Conway lucky to not be tackled by his own man there. The jerseys are very similar.
