@kiwiinmelb and he has the ability to step them if they come up too fast.

@paekakboyz We haven't looked like breaking their line at all. Our attack looks very predictable and our defence is passive as per usual. They look a lot more organised and have a heap of backline moves. They look better coached to be honest.

I’m starting to think BB at 10 has a real problem reading the field when he’s got the defence in his face. Looking for a weakness in the air that isn’t there in Ireland’s back 3 isn’t working.

Who doesn't? They are rushing up not letting us play at the moment. Our big chances to score tries we have made basic errors and let them off the hook. Both Whitelock and BBBR have given away stupid penalties. It's the pressure

Mo’unga seems to have more composure there, maybe because it looks like he’s happier taking the contact.

No subs? Hmmmmmmm.

[No Quarter]

Surprised at the criticism of of Beauden, he has been much better this game. Expecting him to unlock the best rush defensive system in the world in the first 40 is asking an awful lot.

I’m not criticising him, I’m just thinking in this type of game his vision would be better used at FB

Nisbo can’t tell the diff between Crotty and Goodhue. Explains a lot about his comms.

[kiwiinmelb]

When ireland fuck up there is no mention of composure from these Irish commentators

[Crazy Horse]

@no-quarter it's not just this game though

[taniwharugby]

Goodhue makes some finger tip tackles

[Mokey]

ARGH. I am so sick of hearing the words 'poor pass'. Irish pressure is hard enough without putting each other under pressure as well.

[akan004]

Chance blown.

[No Quarter]

Ahhh fuck that was all over! Damnit

[JC]

Read stinking the place up.

[Donsteppa]

Shit pass from Read followed by a clean up then a pop gun kick from BB. Sums it up so far...

[kiwiinmelb]

Try blown

[Stargazer]

Arggghhh Reado!

How many minutes this season have the ABs been outplayed? It feels like more than any other season. Rope-a-dope is a good strategy in the right situation, but use it every fixture and it results in brain damage.

Ireland working for penalties off every scrum

We have been very average this year. Only looked good against a weak Wallaby team.

Where was our rucking?
