      Irish d is good, but they look half a foot offside to me most of the time.

        Irish linespeed noticeably faster than any SR side.

        Diplomatic way to say they're offside. 😉

          Irish reload on defence very quickly, and do just enough with their hands at the ruck to make it a bit of a mess, and often just a little slow

              Certainly was there. Very fast but almost always half a step to early

                  They're well drilled and obviously work hard. Not difficult to see Andy's experience there.

                        just gives the backline less space to do anything

                                    @Tim slightly offside though. We need to punch in close more before going wide
