How many times has Murray done that now over the two games? Unreal

Huge hit on Carter.

Well I never! A lesser man would gloat

Watch how slow his delivery is..credit where credit is due, he took his try very well

irishbucsfan

The last thing the world of rugby needed was the All Blacks discovering a decent half back.

SOB flattens Carter... Brilliant

Murrays turn to be lucky there......

Kiwi_knock

McFadden did well to rescue that

In fairness it was a clever move, not a moment of individual brilliance. Set up everyone out wide, no-one short side, sudden short side runner pulled the defenders out of position as Murray cut back inside off the base rather than giving the pass.

That's it SOB, take Carter out....


















I kid, I kid

Murray charged down, but got away with it, then put in a very good box kick, which Savea almost lost.

irishbucsfan

McFadden is a serious liability

thomond2006

Savea looks very dodgy with the high ball

Was that him who shot out?

ThisRegard

Ahem, Murray. If you look at his kick in the build up to the try, he was almost charged down there too.

molloyjh

Ah crap. Another penalty conceded. Another 3 on the way for NZ. Our defense has been solid enough since we got our try.

Kiwi_knock

Another silly penalty to give away

Davei141

Terrible from Touhy

CJC86

Did everyone see Healy go for the interception there? I swear that man doesn't know that he's meant to be a prop.

Kidney for a new contract if this keeps up!

DDC1990

Silly from Touhy, our defence was so good up till that point.

Easy 3 points to give away.

Ah it was tongue in cheek as I thought the critique of him last night was way OTT. Saying he offered nothing ect..

Anyway good start and our defense looks decent!

thomond2006

jesus Dan he told you to roll away before you hit the ground.

Ireland can't keep up this rate of tackling, we need the ball!

irishbucsfan

Let's just keep the defense up, keep the ball in our own half and keep phase play short in their territory. Thatll frustrate them.

6-10 Carter penalty

Thought it was a bit harsh, he got pinned by the first AB to the breakdown.

No, it wasn't McFadden, couldn't make out who it was.

Burgo

Bad lineout

They've been doing that a lot, but Owens hasn't called them on it yet.

molloyjh

Poor, poor line-out. Are we trying to put ourselves under unecessary pressure!?

irishbucsfan

Set piece not good enough

thomond2006

bloody hell awful throw

Kiwi_knock

Another dreadful penalty to concede

Benny Cake

Cant keep giving away cheap penalties like this..

Burgo

ffs

molloyjh

Ah ffs another silly penalty. What was that about Rossy!?

its_phil

What was Ross thinking?

DDC1990

Its like dying in slow motion.

Little by Little we're being pegged back and back, and the All Blacks seem to move from their 22 to ours in seconds.

thomond2006

Good man Ross... :rolleyes:

ThisRegard

I surely can't be the only one who hears Brad Pits character in Snatch every time Dagg gets a mention?

twinytwo

too many retarded penos

grohlisagod

Please let us get to half-time in the lead. Need to cut out the silly errors.

Edit:There's another one.

CJC86

What's happened to Ross' eye? Looks like he's got a finger in there at some point.

fitz

They're taking defenders out at rucks as they drive through. It's leaving gaps for them to build phases. Nigel not pinging them for it and it's hurting us.

totallegend

Ah jaysus, what was Ross playing at? Ireland losing focus now; loose kicks from Murray, penalty from Tuohy, missed lineout and now a blatant penalty from Ross. Need to tighten it up or the game will slip away

Silly pen, why do it? Carter could kick these over all nite long

irishbucsfan

So inaccurate today. After such a focused start.
