I don't really understand not taking the easy 3 points there.
They need 4 tries and win to go.
Not true.
If Scotland win by 8 points without a BP then they and Ireland are both on 14 points. SA go through on 15 and then Scotland go through having beaten Ireland.
Winning and denying Ireland any BP is enough.
-
Lots of penalties so far
-
I wish Sam Cane, Ardie would "clarify" each penalty the way Ireland do

Unlikely to beat them by 8 going for 3 though.

@Mattasaurus professional time wasting
-
Scotland need points
-
Scotland looking clueless on attack, solid defense for Ireland -- Scotland need to straighten their attack
-
@Mattasaurus playing like they are 5 down in the 79th minute.
Ireland very good at moving slowly atbevrrynruck.
-
What is it with this time-wasting?

@Bones said in RWC Week 5: Ireland v Scotland:
What is it about Ireland that allows them to walk around the side of breakdowns, or just plain enter from where the opposition halfback should be?
I think they often start from hindmost but then do every thing they can to end up in front of the ball or disrupt the ruck.

@Tordah they are excellent at pushing the limit across the board...at rucks, taking players out ahead of the ball carrier and ahead of the ruck, thier d line that is always just ahead of the off side line...thier superb discipline makes it all appear legit
