Jonny Sexton down.

Can't get to a TV for another 30 mins, but loving this thread.

@taniwharugby replay looked like he drifted for a sec.

[chimoaus]

The speed of the game is like watching two obese people run the 100m

[nzzp]

Was that ball won by Ireland because they jus tdumped bodies over the ruck preventing cleaners? Yes, yes it was

[Toddy]

@Victor-Meldrew 1st half will still be live

[sparky]

@chimoaus It’s a snail race.

[sparky]

Kolisi loses it and coughs up a meat pie.

[sparky]

Still Boks 3 Ireland 0. She’s not really a looker so far.

[Mattasaurus]

Any arms in that tackle though?
EDIT - the one that resulted in the turnover

[chimoaus]

Try saving tackle by Aki there.

[taniwharugby]

Boks still holding in the back of scrum trying for a.pen

Tough to catch - fast ball to the face

[Tim]

Shocking that Boks are not up by 14.

[JayCee]

The way this game is going, 7 forwards on the bench is looking a great call

BOK was waiting ages before calling it. IMO once under number 8s feet ref should call use it.

@Tim they couldn't break a 14 man AB side in the 1stnhalf.either, 2nd half you'd expect/hope the game to open

Jonny Sexton down.

BBC reporting it's a wrist problem.

Poor bastard will have to use the other hand

[game_film]

What’s the longest spell without a stoppage in this game? 30 secs?

I’m sure he has an assistant for that.
