        This has been a great performance by Samoa and now a huge chance to make history. It’s going to the wire.

                    Ireland running the clock down. Time over. Ball out.

                          Not one of those Irish players were on their feet at that last ruck.

                            Barnes’ interpretations in that second half will raise a few eye brows.

                              Where were the cards or even the warnings to Ireland for persistently killing the ball and stopping the opposition from playing?

                                Refereeing is so inconsistent across the board. Its not ok.

                                  Ireland lucky. If Samoa had a line out, they win that game. Having said that, McFarland was clearly played at in the air in that last line out. Should have been a penalty.

                                  Samoa defence was immense and they exposed the Irish in a few areas tonight, defended against them in general play better than the ABs last year.

                                  Ireland not as good as they and the public in general think they are.

                                    Ireland got very lucky there

                                    Barnes the latest hometown

                                    Great to see & hear the French crowd giving Ireland the bird

                                    Based on this past month, England will do very well to get out of the pool

                                      I think that has been the big lesson from this weekend. We’ve had remarkably different interpretations and styles of refereeing from game to game to game. This close to the Rugby World Cup that seems unforgivable.

                                        Enjoyed that, I wonder if we have to remember the matches are warm up games, and perhaps teams minds not always completely in right place? Just the very top 2%, sometimes you can talk yourself into being switched on, but not always completely 100% there!

                                          Ireland didn’t play well but ground out another win and rode their luck. The sign of a very good Rugby side.
