Ireland Team Talk XII: Farrell's First Fifteen

Thats a harsh peno for me Bealham having a bad day out

Finlay having the game from hell.

lol that’s an awful decision given the late hits on Prendergast he’s let go

Bealham off at HT for me, has done nothing positive. Only fumbling the ball and giving away silly penalties

That's no different from the no arms hit on Prendergast earlier that was waved as play on.

I am not seeing it. His line kicking has been good with some good distribution but his defense has not been great.

Better from Bealham

Scrum has held up well considering Australia have been able to recall Tupou.

Another good touch finder from Prendergast

Sp is not being picked for his defence. Neither was OGara back in the day

That play summed up the half

The handling errors have pretty much killed us

Well that was all a bit crap really. This isn't a great Australia side

Handling is appalling. We'd be out of sight if we could actually keep possession beyond a few phases.

if his defense is not a strength and they want him to play, then he needs a minder like Wallace was back in the day.
