          @munstergreen possibly, i took it as they deserve to have more points , no mention was made that their execution with all their possession in both games was lacking a bit

          @kiwiinmelb yeah fair enough. Like I said last week our commentators are garbage.

          I'd like to think most of us recognise that selecting conservative, not fit defenders across a backline stifles our attack.

            This could get ugly. Our defence is all over the place and we seem intent on kicking the ball loosely to their back 3.

              Bloody hell the Aussie backs are running riot now, have created about five try scoring opportunites in 15 minutes and scored two.

                    Pretty tough to tackle a bloke that is lesding with his head around waist height.

                        This Irish pack sure has shown the rugby world what forward play is all about. They just don't seem to make mistakes and all do their jobs so well. If they had their full strength backline this would not be so close.

                          27-24 to Ireland, 7 minutes left. In Irish 22 their feed to scrum. Anyone's game this.

                            Something which bugs me about this 'choke' tackle. If it's a maul, why aren't the 'chokers' penalised for collapsing it?

                              Irish very lucky at breakdown not to get pinged for coming in from the side. Instead Aus penalised for not releasing. Big call.

                                Ireland get out of jail on the back of a penalty, thought he would blow in Aus favour there for both hands in the ruck and coming in from the side.

                                      Yep bad call but the return kick was worse, now Aus throw a stupid pass into touch. Composure lads. Easy for me to say siting on my fat arse lol.

                                        2 minutes to go, reminds me of WC final in 11. Can Ireland hold it.

                                          @Bones also last week in the AB-Ire game, you cold see the Irish ball carrier in one of the mauls, lifted his feet off the ground, about 5 sec later maul collapsed and we got pinged.

                                          Maul penalties quite often are just given to the attacking team, almost regardless of how it went down despite the attacking team either not being bound properly or playing thier part in bringing it down, which begs the question why dont we use it more?
