The Beeb saying Jones is 'alert' now thank god

irishbucsfan

POM was great today. He still has stuff to work on but its clear that he will be a very good player in future.

Imagine if Sean OBrien hadn't been injured, the guy wouldnt have started for Ireland for god knows how long (especially with Wally back).



On another note, I'm so fed up of watching this pathetically conservative excuse for a rugby team. ."Leading after 50 minutes at home? Stop playing rugby and sit on the lead..." Thank god I didn't waste my money flying home for this rubbish.

Afraid not, he went to wrap his arms around and Jones turned into him.

Agree to disagree. No wrap in my opinion.

Look at it this way.

As the person attempting to make the tackle you must not endanger the ball carrier.

In my opinion Trimble has accidentally made head to head contact and as such should be penalised. Accidents are not exempt from the laws.

I'm gonna have to look that up, can't say I agree with you as we stand

Accidents not being exempt?

O' Leary getting some great crisp fast passes away there in that phase. Well done.

castie

Alot of Healys carries have looked like hes isolated.
Where the hell is the support!

Nice up and under from ROG in fairness, plenty of air and landed just outside the 22

Yeah, it was great, we should kick it more often, works great

leakyboots

To echo what the commentators just said, Healy has been immense today, will be a serious player for us for the next decade

DOC was there but didn't clear out Lamont.

Only worry I have is his binding.
A lot of the scrums his hand goes down and if he starts getting pinged for it he will be in trouble.

Great scrum. Penalty to us.

Yep, just when we started to put some moves together he emptied the bench.

Sexton kicking

Has DOC made one positive contribution to today's game?

I'm embarrassed that with 25 minutes to go and an 8 point lead at home against a team that hasn't won a game this year we decide to get into our shells and try soak up the game instead of pushing on and putting them in their place.

Skid

Lovely Kick, Jonny.

Nice lead now, see it home.

Spudmonkey

Great kick. Puts a bit more distance between them.

JRant

Why isn't McCarthy on?

eyeball kid

Lovely kick from Sexton there.

MickySticks

Aboy Johnny!

Neil3030

Sexton clearly only made that because ROG told him to

Yes, lots. Not least his pass in the lead up to the 1st try.

Rhinestone Cowboy

Penalty try !

Dempsey

What a recovery by Kearney!

bossa_nova

Kearney is on some serious form:eek:

Lapin

Thats a definite sin bin:mad:

Spudmonkey

Kearney is brilliant with ball in hand.

ongarite

Class from Kearney.

leakyboots

Good break by Kearney, gave the pass a little early. Interesting decision by the ref

castie

Got to be a card!

eyeball kid

Yellow for Scotland. Great by Kearney, he really is in some form at the moment.

irishbucsfan

Is it worth going upstairs

IS IT WORTH GOING UPSTAIRS

bossa_nova

LOL " i didnt even touch him, i just pushed him":pac:

Superbus

Bit of a dive?

Heels were clipped but doubt it was intentional.
Still put himself in that position though.

eyeball kid

MsFadden on for Kearney now. Earls to fullback?

Paparazzo

Wouldn't mind seeing that first replay again to see if their was contact with the feet

MickySticks

Kearney regaining the form he showed on the last Lions tour. Brilliant footballer to watch.

Nah, Earls had his legs clipped as well as a bit of a pull.

Would be interesting with Rog to FB Sexton back to 10 and McFadden to 12

conor1979

Can anyone explain to me why ROG comes on for Darcy and then McFadden comes on for Kearney?

Surely McFadden should have come on for Darcy!

I wonder is Joe Schmidts influence helping him regain form, doesn't really kick anymore or anything and really goes for it with pace

JRant

Close on 20 mins chewed up by scrums, thats disgraceful

andyman

Hahaha, McFadden on the pitch about 2 seconds!

castie

McCarthy not on yet is a shame
