    But France are dangerous when they have the ball in hand. They scored that try with ball in hand.

    However the forward pass from them is questionable to call it a valid one to add onto the scoreboard.

    Clearly an Irish lineout

    What's he supposed to do then?

    Give them a lineout inside the 22?

    Utterly amazing that people think Prendergast was the problem for that try. Blind hatred and a desperate effort in wanting a player to fail so someone else plays.

    Disgraceful from so-called 'fans'.

    That's another legit turnover from us penalised. Dickson being the usual homer.

    Gibson Park is a liability at this stage. He can’t tackle.

    Communication was the greatest fatality

    What the hell was he doing there. Be amazed if we get away with less than a try here

    Usual French replays from the TV feed… or lack of.. no view of the ball going to touch.

    Dickson has no business near international rugby. Gifted that try to France with the lineout and subsequent penalty

    the pressure Ireland are under is unreal. France are playing some stuff.

    Yes, give them a lineout on the 22. Allows us set our defensive line. Fly hacking randomly to a lethal back 3 was not the option. Especially with our defense broken up.

    This is gonna be a painful result. France are superior in every single department.

    First one was good play in fairness, 2nd is pure shite. Could get very ugly now

    Another Prendergast tackle classic to let them in again. He has plenty of ceiling to improve his tackling anyway

    That's poor from TOB.

    If he's flying out on the line he has to make the hit.

    Him and Whitehouse are two that I'm shocked are still refereeing anything more important than half time mini games tbh
