Ireland's attack is much better - so easily they identify the fold, soft shoulders and put a man into space.
We're the opposite, at times actively getting in each other's space.
This team is so poorly coached.
You dont even need to be a rugby guru to know.
You can see it from your bar stool with a belly full of ale.
We dont look right at all. And havnt for a long time.

The biggest thing to come out of that half , Farrell is a better coach than razor

Can hear Irish players whinging to the ref
Fuck me, the irony.
Right
-
Very disjointed 1st 40mins.. personally I think both teams have looked good with ball in hand. Just no flow in the game and a # of early replacements which exacerbates this.
DeGroot the pick of the black forwards for me.
Lineout suffers with Scooter off.Razor will fix everything with half time thoughts and vibes
-
Shame Scooter got injured as he actually got us over the gain line on his carries, even the one he got injured on.
Attacking lineout gone to crap. Defensive lineout stepped up.
Bigger bodies to carry the ball - thanks Caleb and Fainga’anuku
Huge opportunity for Lord but he played 36 minutes and barely sighted

Well ... 10-7
Ireland barely better than us. So score is about right.
We're doing some good stuff (the pop passing into space) but fucking up.
I'd like our forwards to start being forwards.
Give our players to Andy Farrell......guarantee you they look a hell of a lot better.

Depressing.
Also, that half took 52 mins.
Given the TMO is watching for so much these days and lots of talking in the ear about this and that, things will drag on. But this ref doesn’t have great game management. Watched him a few times and there’s always a lot of talking and consulting.

Have these blokes even trained all week? Judging by the socials it's all been promo bullshit.
Hanging with the Chicago Bulls, hanging with the Chicago Bears, doing content with Barstool and other influencers... Complete clown show.
As long as they've looked cool in their bulls singlets that's the main thing.

The fact that the ref didnt know there was screen for him to look at on the sideline for the red card, in conjucntion with people on this forum, planet rugby, and "pros" on comms on both UK and NZ tv not knowing whether it was a permanent or 20 minute red , tells you all you need to know about the state of the game.
-
ABs need some straightening runners in their attack and more direct up front - Degroot only man standing up in the tight

I hate this team. 20 mins up.
Get papalii in, Morons
If Dalton’s our saviour we really are in trouble.
