    Hansen and Bolton for Ireland!!!

    Wtf



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,332 ✭✭✭lawrencesummers


    As soon as the ospreys get the ball in their half they should be looking for the 50/22.


    maybe carthy will show hows its done in the second half, with that wind some players could kick from their own 22 and make it.

    After a great start we concede a very cheap try. A hack on from deep inside the Ospreys half. Completely out of nowhere and against the run of play.

    Kicking the ball is a complete lottery here.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,308 ✭✭✭✭Utopia Parkway


    Conditions getting even worse if possible.

    Rhys Webb’s fake tan is running.

    Jesus it looks bleak at The Sportsground

    Fair play to Connacht for playing some nice rugby in these conditions

    I think those two kicks by Carty are why he won't play for Ireland.

    Conversion while into a gale was central.

    The up and under kick was just braindead, you shouldn't need an example of what the wind was going to do for the ball, hindsight wasn't needed there. He's fine 95% of the time but just has too many cardinal errors per game.

    Carty hit late there in the ribs. Did well to get up from that



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,208 ✭✭✭randomname2005


    FFS. Two ospreys in the wrong side preventing the clean out.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,131 ✭✭✭✭Strumms


    Surly Ospreys should have been penalized for not rolling away at their own line there...



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,940 ✭✭✭✭aloooof


    You can hear the wind on the broadcast. I think I might light a fire….



  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,095 ✭✭✭CMcsporty


    Are you for real?? Look at the state of it out there!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,308 ✭✭✭✭Utopia Parkway


    Ospreys have been pretty poor even with a gale of wind behind them. Basically got a jammy try out of nothing.

    Hopefully Connacht keep attacking. Can’t rely on just the wind to win the game for them in the 2nd half.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,208 ✭✭✭randomname2005


    Should have done better from the lineout but make up for it.

    Looked like a high swinging arm before the try.wonder why they never get looked at when a try is scored



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,131 ✭✭✭✭Strumms


    Could have awarded a penalty try for the high shot last ditch tackle



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,208 ✭✭✭randomname2005


    Loved the Connacht question, why not go for it. Strange call from the ref

    Ospreys are taking the píss with the length of time they hold the jumper in the air at lineout.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,940 ✭✭✭✭aloooof


    Totally. I’m pretty sure I’ve seen that penalised recently too.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 5,949 ✭✭✭ionadnapóca


    Snoopy Snoop Beahlam is just the same as Finlay

    i live in fear of the day Furlong gets injured



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


    Evans with another swinging arm. One is careless, two is something different entirely.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,208 ✭✭✭randomname2005


    High tackle which saves the try?



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


    He’d warned them directly and then they proceeded to do it again.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,308 ✭✭✭✭Utopia Parkway


    Connacht have blown some amount of chances to finish the game here. Held up twice over the try line. Leaving the door ajar for the Ospreys. Who have done feck all but are still hanging around in the game.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,131 ✭✭✭✭Strumms


    Ospreys should have at least one player seeing yellow, high tackle a few minutes ago was a swinging arm, nothing to mitigate.

    knock on not spotted or ignored.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,208 ✭✭✭randomname2005


    Finally high tackle getting attention
