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.
They seem to be consistently allowed to come around the side of the rucks..... which regardless of entry .. should be called... but hey they have been doing it for ages -- so why stop now.
Ireland looking very composed, and seem to expect to have breaks every 7 - 8mins...

Thatbwas out
-
LOL so France and Ireland ..... untouchable by the the TMOs
-
What is the rule when an Irish players literally lies on top of the ruck in front of the ball with no attempt to move. Should players entering the ruck also not try to stay on their feet. That last ruck the Irish player actually looked like a dead fish and made no attempt to stay on feet.

4th stoppage at 18 mins -- not major injury yet

It’s a farce how often these teams are allowed to force a break in play.

How was that not closing the gap by Ireland?
