    Kearney looks very fit

    Great try, stander hammered patchel the lead up, this backrow lineout feels like our best


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,398 ✭✭✭clsmooth


    Brilliant. Some nice breaks by Stander, Aki, Henshaw and Larmour there. Murray looking sharper.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,198 ✭✭✭✭mfceiling


    We're up for this.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,986 ✭✭✭✭Clegg


    Last few minutes of attacking play has been excellent. We've switched up tight and wide play, had runners coming on at pace and players clearing our rucks quickly

    Get in Rob.

    I love how he just keeps shutting people up.

    Is rory best not able to sing?


    You could always seek him out and ask him personally.

    Nice bit of ruthlessness and urgency that's been missing for a while.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,322 ✭✭✭✭markodaly


    Ireland of old there. Got a sniff and took it.

    Lineout aside (and maybe we've already corrected that...) we are looking veeeeeeeery sharp.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,986 ✭✭✭✭Clegg


    Rhys Patchell gone off for a HIA according to RTE. That's one fit senior 10 available for Wales now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 9,402 ✭✭✭dublinman1990


    Dan Biggar is now on the pitch for Wales.

    Dan bigger on, not sure if its a HIA, Patchell walked off and seemed fine

    Great try. But did he lose it forward in the act of grounding?


  • Posts: 12,836 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Amount of blocking on Larmour there, complete joke.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 819 ✭✭✭Rockbeast2


    Stander is a better 6 than 8


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,306 ✭✭✭piplip87


    Kearney having a good game so far. What reading when Wales kicked in behind and a great finish for the try.

    Lineout is a worry still but much much better than we where against the English


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 78 ✭✭Muligatawney


    In the lead up to the try, Wales were being let away with far too much hands on the ball. Raynal shouting "No, no" at them but they're still slowing it up big time.

    Yep. Completely unsighted by the incoming Halfpenny.

    Nothing he could do about that.

    Wales play such a niggly game, no lack of off the ball interference.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,986 ✭✭✭✭Clegg


    We've seen those little grubbers from Carbery, Carry and now Sexton in this warm up series. Nice to see us adopting new tactics.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,389 ✭✭✭✭bilston


    Henshaw and Kearney have started well


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


    Sexton starting to assert some control on the game.

    Good.

    It was a HIA. A player can walk off for a HIA.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,389 ✭✭✭✭bilston


    Ooops


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 819 ✭✭✭Rockbeast2


    No try


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,986 ✭✭✭✭Clegg


    Cue Sexton excoriation.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,173 ✭✭✭✭kmart6


    Great work by Henshaw and Kearney.
