    Some good intensity and intent but poor execution.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 37,978 ✭✭✭✭irishbucsfan


    Jenkins was all over White there. Maybe Jenkins has been saving himself for the past 4 years!


  • Registered Users Posts: 24,767 ✭✭✭✭molloyjh


    Jesus Joubert, don't mind the Welsh lads all in the side.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,433 ✭✭✭✭thomond2006


    Nathan White saves the day in the end!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,998 ✭✭✭leakyboots


    Poor defence there. Unorthodox clearance by O Mahony!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,357 ✭✭✭✭Larbre34


    Need to sound a bit of general quarters, Wales much better at getting back into position


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,998 ✭✭✭leakyboots


    Good aerial displays by both Kearneys


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 37,978 ✭✭✭✭irishbucsfan


    Oh god please stop kicking the ball Wales before someone gets hurt... time for a moratorium on that!

    Might be too late. Bigger not looking at all comfortable there.

    think biggar jumped into kearneys knee, that would hurt

    Sexton has had a dodgy start.

    Edit: and then a great clearance from the 22! :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,357 ✭✭✭✭Larbre34


    Jonny looking a little rusty getting back and choosing options on the fly


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,998 ✭✭✭leakyboots


    Jonny looks a bit rusty


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,721 ✭✭✭✭Squidgy Black


    Absolutely butchered that kick there.


  • Registered Users Posts: 24,767 ✭✭✭✭molloyjh


    We look fairly sloppy here but that's to be expected I suppose. After a good start though Wales have had the momentum for a bit.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,965 ✭✭✭connachta


    McGrath dominated here


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,290 ✭✭✭aimee1


    tipuric was bound on mcgrath there ffs


  • Registered Users Posts: 24,258 ✭✭✭✭Buer


    Few very sloppy and rusty starts (Sexton and Earls notably) but also some guys who look really sharp and hungry.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,998 ✭✭✭leakyboots


    Henderson you animal

    Hendo :eek:


  • Registered Users Posts: 24,258 ✭✭✭✭Buer


    Great power from Henderson but question mark about the gate and binding there.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,290 ✭✭✭aimee1


    we are giving away needless penalties

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,308 ✭✭✭✭.ak


    Interesting game so far, both sides fairly intense, trying things out. Proper warmup game.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,998 ✭✭✭leakyboots


    Thought that last penalty was harsh


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,965 ✭✭✭connachta


    Henshaw really good for now

    Our discipline has been very dodgy and he was lucky not to concede a penalty there. White and O'Mahoney also got lucky earlier on.

    "He'll have to watch his kit bag after the match in Dublin anyway" :pac:

    Ah gate was fine, thru the middle, but binding I don't think it matters so long as your not flying off your feet or shoulder charging. Refs are rarely that pedantic

    He wouldnt if they hadnt just broadcast the fact. Dumbasses.


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


    Clear out of sexton saw the Welsh go off their feet, again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,998 ✭✭✭leakyboots


    Silly knock on from RK, easiest of his catches ironically and Wales bossed us there at the breakdown. Tipuric is killing us


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,965 ✭✭✭connachta


    Wales playing extremely well there..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,290 ✭✭✭aimee1


    too many soft tackles

    Was it? POC was the middle of the ruck, slowing it and Henderson went through on the near side, fair bit away from POC. Was definitely questionable.


  • Registered Users Posts: 24,767 ✭✭✭✭molloyjh


    There's been a few forward passes missed here helping Wales get over the gain line. But they've been the better team by a distance so far.


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 8,140 ✭✭✭fitz


    How many forward passes did Wales get away with there?

    No, it really wasn't fine. He got lucky and could easilly have been pinged.

    Breakdown is a complete mess, not being reffed at all. Wales are causing us plenty of problems so far though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 24,767 ✭✭✭✭molloyjh


    Ireland physically off the pace.


  • Registered Users Posts: 24,258 ✭✭✭✭Buer


    Our definite starters definitely look a bit off the pace and the least influential out there with possible exception of RK and Henshaw.

    Sexton, POC, POM and Heaslip all quiet. Murray doing ok.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,958 ✭✭✭✭RuggieBear


    wales brought that ****ing maul down imo


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,998 ✭✭✭leakyboots


    Card? We're pushing our luck


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 35,496 Mod ✭✭✭✭pickarooney

    Looked like three from the first angle, zero from the other angle.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,433 ✭✭✭✭thomond2006


    Surprised there's been no card. 3 penalties on Ireland's line.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,357 ✭✭✭✭Larbre34


    I bet O'Brien is tugging at his chains


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,965 ✭✭✭connachta


    I really think Wales might bother England and Aussies..

    Yeah, was a sloppy maul and they were on a downward trajectory from the off. As soon as it met with any resistance it was down.
