Berry getting shit, but I thought the way he reffed the breakdown suited us.
I was going to post the same thing. A NH ref would have likely meant the breakdown would have been even more of a free-for-all. Berry penalised players for not rolling away more than many other refs would have.

The worst set of fans I’ve ever sat amongst.
Outside the stadium in the city in a non rugby capacity, lovely people.
During a match a horrible set of bastards.
Good luck to em.Kunts.
I've met some nice ones. Clearly you struck a bad batch. Or I struck a good batch...

Start Roigard next week so we can see him against DuPont.
Antoin will be looking for an autograph.
He'll have to catch him first

That Nisbo stat is insane, he’s called 54% of all AB tests.

I don’t care if Berry is letting stuff go. Ratima needs to assert his authority.
If he tries to get too in involved , JGP scrags him. That was the forwards job to clean up his ball.

Jordie Barrett after the card was fucking good too. The dinky shit from the first half was put away and he just carried. Defended really well, and owned the kick off space. His best half hour in a while as well

I think I might be a bit clouded on DMac by that little fuck around with Jordan. Otherwise he kicked lots and passed in front of his forwards.
The 2nd half was so good once we went back to 15.
There's something there. He just has to shed the Harlem globetrotters shit. Of course that might be reflective of the instructions from his coaching team. Certainly the plan is not helping him execute well

@cgrant He had to contend with some messy shite some caused by Ireland some our own doing.
He did well - the ref got his stamp on that and Roigard came on
Ratima made a few errors but by and large played the hand he was dealt as best he could -
What the fuck was Bundee the mouth Aki yapping about at the end to Rieko?

Just needs to keep doing the basics. Pick his time to do the magic. That goes for many in the backline

At the end Tosi with ball in hand and a grin.
Pure terminator. What a find.
I'll be grinning all week until I get to Paris next Friday. -

Our bench pack is getting springbok-esque. Ireland had no answer. Aside from Ratima the selectors had a good night.

The ALB sub was a black mark. Could have easily blown up in our faces

@Billy-Tell Yip and once Ireland lost Furlong pre match their frontrow stocks drop hugely in class
