Could you imagine if he converted to union, and USA had him and Ngwenya on both wings?

He'll definitely get a pro contract somewhere if he wants one!

He'd get destroyed in defence and under the high ball and he wouldn't get 20 metres of open space in 15-a-side. I love the way he tries to give the ball back to the ref after scoring a try

Thats a chance I'd be willing to take. Love that he has no interest in sliding in on the corner.

Wonder would he like the weather in Limerick

pickarooney · 11-12-2012 12:47pm

He'd freeze to death waiting for the ball to come out as far as the wing :P

One ruck/maul in 15-a-side and he'd get snapped in two.

But looks the business for 7s rugby. I must say, as much as I sort of despite team sports at the olympics, 7s could be quite fun. Specially in Rio. And I guess it would be a NZ medal hope sport...

What's that you've got in the bag then...women's shotput,sailing,rowing and 7s.Is rugby not enough for some?

Great game. From 1 to 15.

Wally the legend, Sexton played a blinder , and O Driscoll was brilliant in defense and attack.

Watched it very late last night after a few Jamesons. Still made me nervous

. Down to practically the last play, pure class.

That's a nice bit of marketing there for Berocca. Though the skeptic in me has questions over three of the shots!

Grimebox · 05-01-2013 1:21am

Smashed a few before making the first shot

almighty1 · 05-01-2013 6:47pm

2nd shot is definitely a fake. Comes back down too quick.

Ugh, that really annoys me. I can't believe how few refs seem to know the laws fully. The laws clearly state that a quick lineout can only be taken behind where the ball went out of play. It doesn't matter if it was kicked out on the full; if you want to take a quick lineout you forfeit that free field-position.

The new laws state that the throw can be taken from in line with the kickers position when the ball was kicked.

The ref in fact did know the rules and played them correctly, you need to check the latest rules.

Law 19.2 – Quick Throw-In
This change alters where a quick throw can be taken. Currently a quick throw can be taken anywhere from the place the ball crossed the touch line back to the thrower’s goal line. The change allows a quick throw to be taken anywhere from the place of the lineout back to the thrower’s goal line. The gap that used to exist if the ball was kicked out on the fly from in front of the 22 is now gone. [I suspect this will have a bigger impact in Sevens than it will in Fifteens, but not this summer.

Grimebox · 10-01-2013 2:21pm

Even with that nice diagram, I still don't understand. A quick line-out can be taken anywhere between the goal-line and kickers position?

I was confused at first, but yes, what you said is correct. Basically what the diagram fails to explaiun is the ball has gone out on the full. Say the attacking player is the BLUE DOT, the defending team (now attacking) can play the ball anywhere between their goal line and where the kicker was standing, even with a quick line out.

Yes, because the kick went straight into touch. So anywhere from the point the kick was taken back to your own try line

Just watching this again out of boredom. Jesus, DOC gives an absolute masterclass in tighthead lock play.

.ak · 10-01-2013 3:54pm

For me that game is our yard stick. We should be aiming to play like that all the time. Teams can't live with us when we play at tempo.

Tox56 · 10-01-2013 3:57pm

Youngs steaming in on SOB and SOB swatting him away like a child still makes me laugh every time, what a game.

Fishooks13 · 10-01-2013 3:59pm

My highlight is Banahan running across the pitch only to dragged into touch, "unforgivable", as it was described.

That game more or less ended his England career too

Our coach can't seem to live with us playing at tempo.

EDIT: The highlight for me is still the first scrum, or our Statement of Intent as the BBC called it. Rossys reaction after it....

Our coaches were like - slow down lads, you're playing too well and too quick, this is not what we planned :pac:

CatFromHue · 10-01-2013 4:12pm

Ah it's that game!

For some reason I thought it was the 2010 England Ireland game and couldn't understand why people were so excited.!

Watching that literally gave me chills. What a f****** game that was.

I cannot wait for the Six Nations, but we need to come out with that mindset from the get go. Regardless of the opposition. We need to destroy Wales.

Edit: Apologies for the sensationalism. Those videos have really fired me up though!

I'm sure this has already been posted (probably several times!), but two things struck me about Dempsey's try v England '04 (apart from how staggeringly awesome it was).

- the speed and lines of support throughout the move.
- how incredibly deep the Irish backline are standing. It's a virtual "how not to do it" in modern rugby.

Darcy used to constantly make breaks like that from absolutely nothing, how he did it, I will never know

He is claiming that that should be an England penalty. This link is better: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=J0MHxrqyGXs#t=4557s

I have just been rewatching that match and his bias is absolutely infuriating. It comes across multiple times. He's talking **** half the time.

What was Care doing

TOL barely had the opportunity to deny him the ball before he judo throws him over his shoulder. Don't understand how that was a penalty against TOL in the first place

I love that clip and he captures what my sentiments would have been perfectly.

Care was an idiot, but from the looks of it I think TOL was about to do the scrum half special of taking a quick tap on the other team's scrum penalty. Personally it gets on my ****ing tits that they always get away with it and clearly it annoys Moore too. I'd disagree with him on this occasion but I understand where he is coming from. He lets his frustration get the better of him at times as he is ultimately an England supporter. He's better than anything RTÉ have though.
