Good work from O'Mahoney

Slow wingers aren't really that viable. He's a great player, but pace is fading.

He’s not great he’s been poor all tournament

Break the cycle of abuse Ireland!

Croft · Post by **Croft** » Sat Oct 19, 2019 11:46 am

fudge. Ireland are frozen with nerves. NZ are just exploiting it. When the Irish players shake off the fear and start playing then there will be a game.
They need this from their uh... quarterback.

But plenty of time yet.

Ireland look like England Post 2003. Reached the heights but then an immediate decline. Just pray you avoid your Robinson years.

Irish actually playing well.

fudge me, POM did something good

TWICE!

Salanya · Post by **Salanya** » Sat Oct 19, 2019 11:46 am

POM has woken up - 20 minutes later, but it's something.

Now we just need Sexton on the field.

What's the bet Owens cards an AB player for something that Ireland have already done.

kiweez · Post by **kiweez** » Sat Oct 19, 2019 11:46 am

After watching both games, clearly the cards have been put away for the knock-outs.

Protect the bloody ball.

Ireland bringing the movez straight into Black tacklers

Plato'sCave · Post by **Plato'sCave** » Sat Oct 19, 2019 11:46 am

Ireland are going to have to pull their socks up if they’re going to progress further than the quarters this time.

Sandstorm · Post by **Sandstorm** » Sat Oct 19, 2019 11:46 am

Ireland backs think cutting back into the AB forward traffic is a good plan?

tcc_dc · Post by **tcc_dc** » Sat Oct 19, 2019 11:46 am

I love Earls...but get him f@cking off

Yeah, they’re going to lose by sixty purely because of O’wens.

Lads you could start a new thread for this. Ireland r Ghey are something like that

Goodhue needs to hold a little bit more to draw and then pass

That's harsh

Flametop · Post by **Flametop** » Sat Oct 19, 2019 11:47 am

Fairly obvious that a week off has benefited nz

earl the beaver · Post by **earl the beaver** » Sat Oct 19, 2019 11:47 am

So if the ball is within a metre of the ruck it's in the ruck now?

Winnie · Post by **Winnie** » Sat Oct 19, 2019 11:47 am

FFS Earls
Along with Aki he's been a waste of airfare and expenses

CM11 · Post by **CM11** » Sat Oct 19, 2019 11:47 am

Error after error after error.

That’s straight in the side. Clear penalty.

Really hope Ireland make a game of this

Insane_Homer · Post by **Insane_Homer** » Sat Oct 19, 2019 11:48 am

I'd say the ball was out there, but he wasn't behind the last foot.

paynie · Post by **paynie** » Sat Oct 19, 2019 11:48 am

Ireland need to pick and go. How many times have they lost it in contact from one out passes?

eldanielfire · Post by **eldanielfire** » Sat Oct 19, 2019 11:48 am

Looked out. AN area that needs more certainly in the rules.

Ah that's not even a factor, look at his chase back of the intercept v Japan, which was the only good thing he's done all tournament. He's just off on his options and execution.

I think he's been grand from the start tbh. Earls has been total and utter AIDS though.
