RWC warmup - Ireland v Samoa

[Dan54]

@sparky Enjoying this game, it's a good watch so far.

[sparky]

Good response from Ireland. Conor Murray keeps chasing a kick from Stockdale and scores. Ireland 12 Samoa 13.

[sparky]

Conversation missed. Samoa keep the lead by a point.

[sparky]

Lots of kicking in the last five minutes. Ireland looking sharper at the breakdown.

[sparky]

Great Samoan break.

[sparky]

Samoa deep on attack again,but it’s knocked on.

[sparky]

Huge performance from Samoa and giving so much entertainment to the Bayonne crowd. Ireland 12 Samoa 13. 20 to go!

[sparky]

Samoa lead the number 1 ranked side in the world!

[sparky]

These scrums are taking too long. If Conor Murray is taking this long to out the ball in, Wayne Barnes should give a free kick.

[sparky]

Tough penalty there against Samoa. Irish prop on the far side went down first.

Barnes reckons it was clear to him. Useless referee.

[sparky]

Hugely impressive performance by Samoa so far.

[sparky]

Again, Barnes gives a marginal penalty to Ireland.

[sparky]

Ireland score off the lineout drive. These marginal technical penalties are going to kill sides who try to play Rugby in their own half in the next six weeks.

[sparky]

Ireland ahead 17-13.

[sparky]

Crowley takes forever on the conversation. Charged down. Still 17-13. Can Samoa go again?

[antipodean]

How do you have a conversion charged down from outside the 22?

[sparky]

Another penalty to Ireland. These have shifted momentum in the game.

[Jailbreak7]

@sparky A familiar story....

[sparky]

Brave Samoan defence this.
