    Poor effort at a tackle by Stockdale there.

    Kearney Ringrose and Leavy the standout players in the first half

    Confident with what the bench has to bring for us

    Failing to see with POM is bringing to our game however[/QUOTE]

    I know, leading the tackling stats for Ireland, bringing nothing to the game
    Tackling aside, he had a very quiet first half. We struggled at the breakdown and the line out which are the areas we'd be looking for POM to be prominent.

    Fantastic turnover to start the second half.

    He has been quiet but don't think he's been poor

    He’s been poor passing, decision making and in defense.

    I say that as a fan.

    What happened to the younger Kearney brother?

    He’s not good enough

    I’m genuinely trying to think of any defensive lapses or bad decisions. That ruck that lead to being held up at end of half was down to the presentation of the ball

    Kearney playing a blinder.

    Kearney is playing well enough that he might be in the frame for MOTM.

    Can everyone keep an eye on the sky and if it get so much as an inch lower please post asap.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,258 ✭✭✭✭Buer

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,238 ✭✭✭✭Diabhal Beag

    When Hogg ran at him at one stage he got turned very easy and he’s not on pushing hard enough on the inside.

    Just my obvervation from the stands.

    Thought he was very good last week.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,031 ✭✭✭eigrod


    Could’ve beena penalty try anyway cos the tackle was around the neck


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,925 ✭✭✭dublinman1990


    Well done Murray for scoring that try. That was excellent.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,220 ✭✭✭cameramonkey


    Aki did well

    That's what I thought. It was definitely fumbled but always maintained contact with the ball

    Hey look Stander was right, “that 7 has nothing”.


    I joke, he’s a fine player.

    More Stockdale Stats:
    - He is the first player to score 5 tries in the championship since Tommy Bowe in 2012.

    - Another try and he equals the championship record record of 6 tries. Those on 6 tries are:
    Chris Ashton 2011
    Shane Williams 2008
    Will Greenwood 2001
