    We've been getting very sloppy since the Doris disallowed try, Need to steady the ship and not give England a route back.

    Nah Healy was square when the tighthead side was already folding in, don't think Genge is legal but it has nothing to do with Healy.

    "day one of tackling classes" lol.

    ffs.

    fair while since Ewels has been in "day one of tackling classes"

    I'm not disputing the red - just wonder how much time was involved for Ewels to react to tackle Ryan.

    looks like Ewels did have time to go lower.

    another game dead as a full contest in any case - second game in a row for Ireland.

    also makes no difference to the championship imo as France will deservedly get the slam next week as easily the best team this 6 Nations.

    How was that pass from Marchant not immediately called as forward?



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


    You know Genge is boring in on Furlong and not Healy, don't you?

    Explain to me how that's Healy's fault?

    Ireland are in all sorts of bother now.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,241 ✭✭✭✭Strumms


    Clear forward pass, looked it live, confirmed on replay.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 4,505 ✭✭✭A-Train


    Raynal is doing his best to even up this match since giving the red. Also Ireland are not helping themselves at all.

    1. I thought there was a massively forward pass from England in that
    2. We had Cian Healy defending a massive amount of space in the midfield there. How do we possibly end up in that situation?


  • Posts: 8,756 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    OK, I missed the first few minutes. Was the red a close call or something because Ireland are being ridden in every call since the try

    Bar the opening period until the try was disallowed we are doing exactly what I thought we'd do which is why I wasnt confident prior to kick off.



  • Posts: 20,606 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    3 seconds and call and he waited 8 to call first.



  • Posts: 13,104 ✭✭✭✭ Jayden Sticky Maple


    Sinckler was in front of Itoje there as he landed, penalty all day.

    Oh England getting shafted with that red card in the 1st 10 minutes was a great sight. It made me f*cking delighted to see Lowe get a just reward to get the try to make Ireland go up 8-0.

    If that ref has a solid rep while being fair to either team in the right moments on the field of play this game will be a great scalp for Ireland to get one up against England while playing on their home ground. I know not everything has not gone right with not getting that 2nd try counted from Doris.

    However as long as we don't make too many errors; we should be Ok. But we must not lose sight of the fact that Ireland don't win at Twickenham very often. England are known a very ruthless side. The sight of playing a game against England at Twickenham makes it feel very intimidating.

    It's a tough watch for see Ireland go down when it should have went their way. But Ireland need to keep a clear head from now on. At this point I don't want it to see Ireland crashing down in front of England while they are a man down in London.

    It would be devastating to see it.

    What a great maul defence there



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,040 ✭✭✭✭Clegg


    Utterly phenomenal from Keenan



  • Posts: 3,773 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Just switched on to see the disallowed try. Everything I've seen has been painful to watch apart from the scoreline. Have a definite feeling the ref is trying to even it up GAA style



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


    Healy was watching George all the time there.

    Lowe with a kick that was one bounce away from being something special!



  • Posts: 20,606 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    England in from the side and roll it into touch, should be an Ireland put in.

    This is a test match of absolutely ridiculous intensity.



  • Administrators Posts: 55,264 Admin ✭✭✭✭✭awec


    Yes I noticed this too, why is a prop defending out there? Something isn’t quite right.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,122 ✭✭✭Shehal


    Brilliant from Healy and good attacking play there to get back into the 22, hopefully this swings the momentum backwards us.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,040 ✭✭✭✭Clegg


    We shouldn't be allowing Itoje to swim in immediately after we transfer the ball. That's poor play.



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


    No he's not. Furlong is the one being blown up because Genge is boring in on him.

    Seriously you're the only one that isn't seeing this.



  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 9,037 ✭✭✭fitz


    How did Itoje not release his bind there??!?



  • Administrators Posts: 55,264 Admin ✭✭✭✭✭awec


    7 English forwards are dismantling our 8.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,219 ✭✭✭✭Larbre34


    This is a massive mess in the tight.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,990 ✭✭✭c.p.w.g.w


    Are England not pushing early at scum time
