Ireland vs All Blacks (2018)

[sparky]

All Blacks making many fewer metres going forward than the Irish. Excellent defence from Savea, Read, Crotty and Goodhue keeping them in this.

[JC]

Fuck what a disaster of a scrum. Karl poor in the scrum as well as the loose.

[akan004]

What's up with our scrum?

Read injured and our 2nd best 8 is not in the squad.

I know. I miss Luke Whitelock too

@akan004

Tadhg Furlong is arguably the best player in the world.

[Toddy]

Karl is getting done in the scrum.

I might be alone here but apart from the penalties I like what I see , think we look more likely with the ball

Wish I had your optimism. I don't see us having it over them in any facet yet. Yellow will come soon.

Note to the All Blacks fatties, when you’re getting reamed in the scrum 10m out and getting twisted around. Get back on defence you lazy buggers, rather than waving your arms in protest and becoming even more useless.

[akan004]

Comms calling for a yellow.

[Crazy Horse]

Here we go. Warning re yellow.

[rotated]

Is it customary for RTE to just pick two chaps out of the crowd who have had a few to commentate?

[Donsteppa]

Karl T needs subbing. Being done in the scrums and in general play. Don’t wait till halftime.

[No Quarter]

Ireland had a real chance to put one of the ABs in the bin at scrum time there.

[Crazy Horse]

Ireland should not have gone for the kick there.

Yeah, still miles behind Moody.

That was 10 mis ago, I’m entitled to change my mind

[taniwharugby]

@crazy-horse yep, although I'm never a fan of a YC for scrum technicalities.

[RoninWC]

Fuck me dead these Irish commentators are just embarrassing!

Yeah bizarre they laid all the ground work to force a yellow and potentially score. NZ are an absolute mess and they just relieved the pressure.

[JC]

Harsh to call that a knock on from DMac
