Shocking by reddan

antogz1979

suppafly

Good conversion

twinytwo

please please please bring stringer on

A-Train

Ireland need to calm down now, try get some sort of game plan going, useless so far!!!

fitz

Trademark brainfart from Reddan.

dynamot

ireland are trying to force the game

The Kidsnapper

Bring on stringer

Username37

I predicted Best would struggle with his throwing.

amacachi

On a lighter note, Ryle Nugent's wikipedia entry is pretty funny. :pac:

jd007

Fallin apart.

SlickRic

Yeah because hes never thrown an intercept in an important game :rolleyes:

The Kidsnapper

The way Ireland are playing - this could be embarassing

Jimmyboss

Have to say there's feck all leadership on the pitch, very disorganised so far......

dentaku

"normally the line out is a strength of irish rugby"

this is a myth. if your lineout is good one day and ****e the next then its nNOT a strong lineout.

Crash

Slippy ground, at speed, Smith was always gonna get over the line.

rebel girl 15

Ireland looking very rattled - Healy with the tap, Reddan with that pass - trying to force the game when its not possible!

whitemocha

i blame their jerseys lol

stephen_n

Kidney and the management team seem to be time warped too two years ago when we won the slam! The tactics are a joke and the execution is then times worse some simply brutal handling and headless chicken stuff out there! Kicking away ball constantly joke!

The Kidsnapper

It's a pity Mary Byrne is an the Xfactor tonight- I'd say she could throw in better than Best

Kimono-Girl

we really need stringer and O'Gara on!

sexton and reddan are rubbish!!! :mad:

Something tells mr her throws would be dull repetitive and very predictable...

dentaku

ffs sexton

antogz1979

Where is the leadership on the pitch, no one talking at all. POC is seriously missed for this likewise O'Gara. Terrible kick from Sexton.

jd007

aahh jaysus. Seriously?

The Kidsnapper

15 metres to the right -

reddan is rubbish!!! and sexton is underperforming tonight :mad:

FYP :rolleyes:

amacachi

"Fog soup", ew.

If things keep going like that there should be as many changes as possible at halftime, at least maybe the players on the bench haven't choked yet.

Yup, dropped it just after he hit the ground.

pappyodaniel

Just like the Irish players on the field today, WE on boards need to calm down, slating players and management and calling for drastic substitutions isn't needed. It's gonna happen, there will be a spark that'll get us going, it's Irish rugby, are we not used to bad starts, disjointed play and basic errors....it WILL come good.

Go Bokke:cool:

Ya if you look closely you can see a very slight knock on alright.

touts

Well Sexton is nothing if not consistent. You can always rely on him to bottle it when the slightest pressure comes on.
