Ireland v Argentina

@reprobate said in Ireland v Argentina:

That's fucked eh. What is red for if not deliberate acts like that. Split second changes of direction and head contact get red, and that's yellow?

If you're making a tackle, you've got to get low. That's got nothing to do with this though.

[Bones]

Argentina finding out you can't get away with dumb shit against a team with a decent coach.

I think what he's trying to say is that you can get a YC upgraded to RC for a split second error, such as a high tackle, whereas this was a deliberate act of foul play and he only gets a YC. That hardly seems fair

[Bones]

@canefan agree, but split second error starts a long time before that split. Get low.

"Brilliant play by James Ryan"

He fucking gave away a penalty in his own 40 you dickwads.

Prexactly

Have Argentina let Ireland off the hook here by not going for the try?

[The Irishman]

Argentinians smell blood. Looking grim for Ireland now. Can't fault Williams, great control of the game without making it all about him.

[MajorRage]

Sterling game for a neutral!

Argies refusing to go away, Ireland discipline pretty poor. Williams doing a good job too

[Smuts]

@MajorRage poor or cynical?

Don't fret, it's the typical Argentina and not the fluffybunnies that now lift just for the ABs. They'll discipline themselves out of the game.

[Mauss]

The Irish are in a weird place when they're pinning their hopes on a young guy like Prendergast. Then again, Crowley's confidence, compared to the Six Nations, has fallen off a cliff.

[Bones]

Regardless of how much dumb shit they do, you've gotta love watching Argentina. You miss 100% of the shots you don't try and boy do they try.

[MajorRage]

@Smuts both, honestly

[Bones]

Geez, big cheer for Healey. You'd think Aki had come on or something.

[Bones]

Game over

[Bones]

Oh fuck this is gorgeous, come on you Argie fluffybunnies!

Quelle surprising

[Bones]

What is fucking stupid is he'll get red and a ban and Irish tighthead gets nothing.
