    Lineout in pieces, doesn't look good against the scrum either.

    Cut out the lineout mistakes and we'll be grand here.

    Gonna be a long day if we can't get our setpiece right. The lineout looks like Kelleher **** the bed, he's overthrown a few, anyone care to explain what we're doing wrong in the scrum?

    Yep, we look the better team by far but numerous errors are hampering us.

    Kelleher has been poor in every aspect possible so far.

    Ireland a bag of nerves.

    SA aren't even that good.

    Can't win a setpiece

    Ireland lucky there. Tackle called and they didn't release. Win the ball.....and then knock it on. Painful stuff so far.

    They have us rattled, two knock ons in a row from Doris. I still think if we get a chance to calm down a bit we'll do damage. Lineout is a real worry, Kelleher looked very nervous before that last one he got - hopefully that'll settle him. 2 ball to POM for a while to secure it

    We had two good attacking lineouts and Kelleher blew both of them. We could easily be 7-3 up if we had anyone able to throw the ball.

    I can see some yellow cards here. The ruck cleanouts are somewhat reckless by SA

    What are they doing in the Hyacinth House?

    Trying to force everything. Started with the stupid decision not to take the early 3 points on offer.

    SA have done nothing and are leading.

    7 missed tackles inside 15 minutes, and god knows how many knock-ons. Not the usual Irish accuracy.

    Beirne and Lowe now.

    South Africa's ruck protection has been targeted.

    If lineout functions it would be 14-3 to us.

    If we'd a line-out we'd be winning by 10 already.

    Meet them on the gainline, and all they do is throw it wide. It's predictable and Lowe will eat that up. Just need to sort out the set piece.

    The one good thing is that SA have only 3 points on the board - they haven't raced into a 10 or 12 point lead or anything

    O’Keefe is waiting a long time to reward the jackal. There’s going to be an injury from a clear out because of him
