    Jaysus that was poor. Actually didn't realise Sexton was only 76% for his career so far.

    Bottle of.coke is an interesting sidelines refreshment

    Jeepers ... was that penalty not obviously out of his range?


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


    How is that not a maul?!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,822 ✭✭✭✭Squidgy Black


    Don't know why we're kicking to DHP he's as good as Folau in the air.

    Yes, and we were given a penalty for that, after which Williams gave a warning to both captains about pulling the maul down.

    Let's not start with the ref conspiracy theories lads.

    I mean, I'll discuss the game if it's alright with yourself?

    Absolutely fine, but whataboutery is weak.

    Both teams were warned after Australia pulled our maul down, and Healy suffered for it, correctly.

    Oz miles offside every time


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,995 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    Nice high one on Ringrose there.

    Actually, maybe not.

    Oz miles offside though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,657 ✭✭✭✭Clegg


    High tackle on Ringrose?

    Think that'd be harsh, Ringrose was dipping and Beale's arm slipped up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,300 ✭✭✭✭razorblunt


    Sexton is throwing so many hospital passes, there was 2 in that phase alone.


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


    Right call.

    Yellow surely - as we saw last week?

    That stat I think is for 2018.

    Genia looks like they've put a makeshift cast on his arm. Doubt he'll be back for the final test.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,300 ✭✭✭✭razorblunt


    Nice purple finger nails on Ginea, he's going to need to repaint them to go with the grey wrap though.

    Beale has hilarious facial expressions


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 116 ✭✭Chex LeMeneux


    I wonder was the high tackle call for the tackle on furlong a couple of phases earlier?

    My argument is that it shouldn't be a warning. Pulling down a maul trundling towards the line shouldn't need a warning. "Don't do that cynical thing you are deliberately doing and you know will prevent a try." How is that a warning?

    Is the injured Aussie wearing nail polish?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,300 ✭✭✭✭razorblunt


    Where in the name of god was the ref going with the mark there?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,822 ✭✭✭✭Squidgy Black


    POM with two turnovers.

    Must've been watching footage of Pocock all week!


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


    POM having the game we've been waiting for from him since the Lions tour. Outstanding.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,800 ✭✭✭Tomtom364


    Yeah never understand why that O'Mahony fella gets picked, doesn't offer much other then the lineout....


  • Site Banned Posts: 12,341 ✭✭✭✭Faugheen


    POM doing the work of the entire back-row at the moment.

    Was offside. Went to the spot of the offside line at the scrum.
