RWC Week 5: Ireland v Scotland

[KiwiMurph]

@Canes4life the game is already over.

[kiwiinmelb]

No doubt they are a more complex side now under Farrell than they were under Schmidt

[Canes4life]

@KiwiMurph man I hope we beat them next week. They need humbling.

To be fair though they look booody good.

[Billy Tell]

Scotland backs showing NZ how not to defend. Plus they just can’t create anything to save themselves.

Lol I don’t know who the commentator is but far out he’s fluffing Ireland. Sounds like they are the best team to ever play the game, the games already over etc.

Well if they win the WC and take the unbeaten record in this competitive era I suggest they could be considered one of the best ever.

Embarrassing

[voodoo]

No need to review the obstruction by Aki or the grounding there

[ACT Crusader]

Just in case you didn’t hear it, this game is over.

Not sure why the Scotland players even put on the jersey today.

[stodders]

@chimoaus better control than Carter? Really?

[taniwharugby]

@chimoaus discipline

[Mattasaurus]

Hmmm TMO not even checking the grounding etc, just popping my tinfoil hat on for a second.... do the ABs or even SA get a TMO free pass like the 1st or last Irish try?

[stodders]

@Mattasaurus Sexton can do some of what Carter did. Carter could do everything Sexton does.

@chimoaus discipline

And put points on them early.

[sparky]

Ireland are outstanding. They must be massive favourites to win the RWC now.

[stodders]

@kiwiinmelb Mike Catt is their attack coach

I would take Carter all day long, but you have to admit the way Sexton controls this Irish team he is like a composer.

I find it very hard to believe we will have the physicality, discipline or even game plan to beat them.

I’m just hoping it isn’t embarrassing like this.

@voodoo was being a bit lenient, forget $1.05, they should be $1.01

So how do we beat Ireland?

Same way you beat any other Rugby team: better them up front, win the collisions, take your chances ruthlessly.
