Wallabies v Ireland #1 - Brisvegas

[Machpants]

That would have been another try because the 13 missed the tackle again, wrong call from ref

I think Ireland are really well drilled in playing to their system , but collectively aren’t overly skilled ,

There has to be a way of taking them out of their comfort zone

[Derm McCrum]

Henshaw is better at 12. Ringrose the better defensive reader at 13.

[Derm McCrum]

8-6. That’ll do for a HT scoreline in Oz.

[No Quarter]

Ireland hanging on a bit at the end of that half, Wallabies finishing strong only to be undone by incompetent reffereing.

Sets up a very interesting 2nd half. Irelands bench could end up deciding the match though.

Yep. Backline are disconnected. Carbery not authoritative enough.

[Derm McCrum]

Lynagh says in halftime remarks that a hint of a forward pass by Genia for the try.

But Australia deserve their HT lead.

[Rancid Schnitzel]

Gee these ads are terrible. The Wallabies used to have some cool ads back in the day. That Land Rover one had a young Michael Hooper strapping on tape in what looked like Fritzel's dungeon.

[hydro11]

Wallabies need to put those cross-field kicks back in the shed.

[Rancid Schnitzel]

"You're diving in there like a swimming pool." Classic.

[gt12]

My god, Beale is playing well. Saw the mismatch and killed them.

[No Quarter]

Fucking really? Penalised for tackling a dummy runner? That's ridiculous.

[Rancid Schnitzel]

They can't overturn for that surely? That is pathetic

[Rancid Schnitzel]

Common sense has left the building.

[Derm McCrum]

Glad it’s an SA ref making that call.

I don't get why Pocock always gets rag dolled. He's built like a tank and lower to the ground. Is he really slow?

It is weird. You'd expect him to be like Nonu but he ain't.

[pukunui]

Haha Aussie comms going full retard. Pretty simple, you can't tackle a guy who doesn't, and never did, have the ball. I don't give a shit if you thought he was going to get it. The fact he held him down afterwards just reinforces it.

[ACT Crusader]

Gee I hope Ireland win after that spat by Phil Kearns.

Yeah or Mealamu. A nugget wrecking ball. He's bigger than Hooper, but Hooper runs km more than him.
