    Poor penalty to give away after securing the lineout.

    Let off there. Poor by Ruddock. You have to hold onto the ball.

    Chap on the camera must have tripped on his sandwiches

    Lowe after having a monster of a kick to that side line yet Burns with a right foot kicks for touch at an angle? Doesn’t make sense.

    The concern with Lowe is he'll go for too much and miss touch. Serious weapon tho when he gets it right.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators, Regional Midwest Moderators Posts: 24,053 Mod ✭✭✭✭Clareman


    Some of the clearouts are just looking for someone to get their head in the way, players going in with the head down over the top of the tackle area. You'd wonder if teams will look to exploit that, finding a player willing to risk their head might be the hard piece.

    Tbf we have that concern with our 10's as well.

    The ability to keep a press on while skills remain at a high level has never come easily to Ireland. I guess thats maybe the definition of the very best teams.

    Not doing a bad impression of it so far though here, huge mental fortitude needed to keep this going.

    Come on the lads.

    The first scrum should have been a penalty to Ireland as well. Porter minced baille in both


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,839 ✭✭✭Doctors room ghost


    Come on Ireland


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,671 ✭✭✭touts


    Not making any distance on the kicking for touch. Burns' confidence must be rock bottom after last week.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators, Regional Midwest Moderators Posts: 24,053 Mod ✭✭✭✭Clareman


    The 10s kick the penalties, no need to over complicate it.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators, Regional Midwest Moderators Posts: 24,053 Mod ✭✭✭✭Clareman


    Too many players standing still receiving the ball.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,745 ✭✭✭✭Clegg


    Ah CJ

    Mod: whinging about the anthems is against the charter. It's also boring.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,901 ✭✭✭thomas 123


    Burns’s pace in 10 is refreshing. Nice to see things not overplayed. We might actually have a crack at this.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 618 ✭✭✭Arduach


    Zippy just infracted me because I said I thought Ireland's Call was an abomination of a tune!!

    Does he think he's Vladimir Putin :D

    I don't like the tune. So what.

    It was thrown too low..he was trying to bring it up into his breadbasket

    That's 2 kicks too far and giving easy possession away


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,790 ✭✭✭✭Burkie1203


    We look so much better playing with tempo

    Thats Ireland forever sure.

    Whats with the incessant kicking?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,867 ✭✭✭lawrencesummers


    We are quickly running out of imagination in attack. France will absorb the carries of CJ, Ruddock and Beirne all day.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 738 ✭✭✭chancer12


    Pity the Captain wouldn't sing something :mad:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 618 ✭✭✭Arduach


    Very good so far.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,564 ✭✭✭RugbyLover123


    French props complete liabilities. Where is Ben Arous? Injured?

    That's two Garryowens you'd be shocked to see a 10 kick in the AIL.
