Ireland gave up and kicked it out. Begging for mercy by the end of it!

They couldn't win it, and were scared they'd lose the bonus point :face_with_tears_of_joy:

If Japan won this it would it be bigger than the win against the Boks in 2015?
Bump
@ACT-Crusader and again, I say yes
-
No Plan B for Ireland.
Schmidt shown up. Again.
-
The tackling accuracy and intensity was off the charts.
Amazing atmosphere

@MiketheSnow nah bro, the grand NZ plan coming to its evil conclusion. You wait till Wales roll over as Gatland follows suit
-
I’m just flabbergasted that Ireland literally have no plan B. That was a tactical master class from Joseph.

It's a childish, unfair thing to say but it's a pity Sexton wasn't playing.
Would have loved to seen his face at the final whistle

@Billy-Tell He's got to be in the conversation for an All Black coaching role.

Let's not copy England and Eddie Jones...

@Victor-Meldrew I'd say similar to Murrays...
That was a mammoth defensive effort by Japan, simply outstanding, thought Ireland would open them up in the final quarter, but Japan just kept getting up and knocking them back!
-
Best doing a good job in the post match interview. Took nothing away from that Japanese effort.

@sparky said in RWC: Japan v Ireland (Pool A):
Nagare, the Japanese Half Back, was outstanding.
And they have Tanaka - who's seriously classy - coming on to replace him
-
@Tim Well it could be a smart pay funnily enough as a bonus point could be important in the final standings.
Well done Japan, Ireland couldn't keep up with the speed and intensity that Japan bought and struggled with the heat.
