Stevenson brilliance followed by a shocker of a pass.
Might be too cool to train at passing.
Seriously in all the years of seeing him play I had no idea he was so quick, he’s usually trying to be too cool/casual. Brilliant run.
Has a funny running style. Doesn't look to be putting much effort in but is deceptively quick.

Anyone else's Stan coverage constantly dropping to SD?
It's been happening to me for the past 2 months. Only on the live coverage, replays are fine.

What is the TJ holding, it ain't a flag, looks like a big old red card...

@Duluth ABs were "smashed" in Dublin last November and the Irish performance was savoured in the NH as a standout. Do the AB performances now get an asterisk against them?
Not sure who you are arguing with or what you are arguing about

Our d line doesn't look anywhere as organised and cohesive as thiers

Great support play by the MABs in that first 40 to take advantage of the short passing game that created space.
Thought the ruck work by the MABs was very solid. Good clean out and not allowing some of our ball runners who were breaking the line to get isolated.
Ireland a little caught out by the pace

Lucky there, they were about to lose someone to the bin

Obligatory 'I hate that rule' comment...

Thought it might be a reference to posts about it being a depleted Ireland at the end of a long season?

I wasn't arguing
Just a comment to yours. Touring sides in NH rarely get an excuse that they are at the end of a long season or that they are playing second stringers. You can only beat what is put in front of you, tired or not. All end of year tours have an element of fatigue for the touring side.

Cos the ABs are (should be) above excuses
