    On replay, I actually think Hansen landed on his head. Not sure what the referee saw to say he landed on his back.

    Bottle call, that's a red...he absolutely drove him down.

    Probably the best result as Ireland seem to really struggle playing against 14 players.

    Absolutely should be a red

    Should have been a red and a yellow. Refs cop out as usual

    The whole bollocks of 'reds ruining games' is completely taking over everything here.

    The need to use slow motion cameras to try and find some tiny excuse to mitigate foul play down is taking the piss now.

    Ireland need to make SA suffer for that injustice.

    Yes, the driving action….

    but the commentary from the ref from the initial viewpoint suggests he was angling not to ‘want’ to issue a red. Talking over the touch judge quite aggressively. Bogey.

    Ireland are just too slow today. Great hit on Keenan for the turn over.

    Don't know about that call. The initial one looked like a player on his feet scooped the ball back and that one on Sexton is harsh.

    Ah I dunno, we've responded to the shooters 4 times out of 5.

    We'll be grand.

    Murray takes that extra second or so to get pass away ,he has to wind it up, made a difference for that attack where keegan was tackled

    Echoes of the BOD spear, both players better be cited after this.

    Been counter rucked off our own ball twice now.

    We desperately need to sort that out quickly. It killed us last night against the NZ 15.

    That music during the breaks in play is shocking.

    Poor game all in all. Ref doing well. Could have been red but yellow probably correct.

    We need to counter this pressure, if we keep making mistakes and allowing SA to impose their game this wont end well for us.

    This SA pack are already starting to blow hard here. Hold on for another 5 and I think we'll start coming into this game more.

    McCloskey has been immense. Clear turn over by Ryan missed there just on the edge of the SA 22.

    We can't really handle their linespeed. We need to stop flinging it across the backline imo, need to kick for distance.


    And that's really **** for McCloskey :(

    Poor McCloskey. Started the game so well.

    Now we've very little physicality in the midfield. Dunno what we do in the centres.

    Looks like Ringrose to 12 and JOB to 13?

    Fan of Jimmy O'Brien but this isn't the position we wanted him coming into. Especially given how well McCloskey was going.

    That's a real loss - very disappointing on many fronts.

    Gonna get overrun in midfield. Stu was slowing down their ball carrying constantly.

    Our reticence to make aggressive tackles deep in their half is puzzling.

    Prefer it the other way round, 13 is the hardest position to defend so last thing we need is a debutant players to fill it in after an injury replacement.

    Murray has been inaccurate. Passing poor, kicking not it's usual pinpoint self. Sexton also not quite as his best, very physical play from him but passing hasn't been as crisp.

    Ryan and Doris unreal.

    James Ryan swung an arm with a closed fist a few seconds ago at a ruck. No connection but it doesn't look good.


    He needs to be careful.

    Murray has been excellent defensively. Another back rower.

    Murray is delivering what he has delivered all season. By starting him today Murray has essentially been encouraged to keep doing that.

    Ireland without quick ball are very ordinary, but suppose that goes for all teams . However Murray is killing us

    Yeah I know. Its just a closed fist always looks bad and a referee can take offense to it very easily.
