NZ aren’t playing that well to win this.

Ah they are. They're not giving us any space. Most of our errors are forced.
They're not really. It wasn't defensive pressure preventing Kearney being a half yard back off that.
Yeah it’s mostly us being shit

They're suffocating us defensively. I know we've made some shit errors but there is still plenty of forced errors from pressure.

Risk the All Black's will be undercooked for the semi? This is like a tier 3 nation got invited into the quarters.

It’s all gone quiet over there

They've probably decided there's more sport to be had stinking up the Brexit thread again. They have a point.

Clearly the experiment isn't working out and we need to go back to the tried and tested.

Sub out Sexton and bring in Carty.

Ireland haven’t really turned up, knocked off their stride right from the start.

This is like a 6N game that Italy are in, you were looking forward to it, until 10 minutes in you realise how shit Italy are, but its Ireland

Aki has a little smirk! Even he's finding this irish performance amusing.

First winge.

That was a clear scrum penalty to Ireland.

Ireland needs to slow the game down and tighten up in the second half,just play 9 man rugby.

18 months too late for this Ireland team. Both Wales and England bullied them physically in the 6n.

This is how we've been for this RWC most of the time. Not good enough.

We've been off the boil at other RWCs/tournaments and pulled out a big performance when an occasion demanded it. We've barely turned up at this RWC. It's like we got onto the plane after 20 v Japan.

How do we ever expect to score with one out passes and a slow recycle

Why do Ireland’s backs all run towards the ball?

eldanielfire · Post by **eldanielfire** » Sat Oct 19, 2019 12:07 pm

Ireland have a maul going forward and they choose then to pass it out to perform the same backs move that isn't working.
