Ireland v Australia

[Marcelo]

Go lads!!!! Go !!!!!!!

Some diving going on there with Hooper's collision..

 

[MrTabua]

This is entertaining!

 

[USARugger]

Ireland ditching the kicking game plan?

With To'omua returning more of the kicks now they have to, it was working well because if Foley is the one returning the kick Australia were only going to be losing territory.

Nothing personally against Bernard but he just doesn't get much distance on his kicks out of hand.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

Jones penalised at lineout time. Sexton to take PK to even up the scores as Oranges is beckon.

 

[Chunderstruck]

Go for another maul you softcocks

 

[Marcelo]

Good maul defense by the lads!

 

[Hugh Jarse]

The boys head for the sheds for Oranges and a sit down.

Score is 20 apiece.

 

[USARugger]

Lack of depth at 6 is now glaringly obvious - someone get Fardy on some HGH immediately

He fumbled it on his own line and then kicked it 60m..

They Wallabies 12 should be the return kicker if possible (To'omua or Lealifanio) Foley really has a tiny boot (not a dig) he should only be the kicker if the other guys stuck. But other then that playing well.

 

[Marcelo]

We are alive!!!

Go Wallabies!

 

[Benaud]

Certainly an exciting first half. 20 a piece in the end probably a fair reflection with the Wallabies up 3 tries to 2 but not kicking as well.

Really enterprising stuff from the Wallabies. When it's on, like in that last try, it looks incredible. When it's off we see tries in counterattack. Minimal scrums or lineouts is up our alley.

Loving it so far. Not the highest quality game but definitely entertaining!

 

[BDA]

fuckin cracka of a match so far! go you good thing

 

[USARugger]

He fumbled it on his own line and then kicked it 60m..

After losing the territory battle about a dozen times beforehand

 

[qwerty51]

Yeah but the point is he can kick the ball far. Phipps needs to pass better, his passing has been shocking but running like a vintage Genia.

 

[Benaud]

How good is the eerie silence before Sexton kicks

 

[BDA]

jones better have a good start to the second half or Cheika will probably hook him and he could say goodbye to his world cup chances

 

[USARugger]

Huh, so how about that meters made and carries stat, Qwerty?

 

[Wilson]

What happened to Phipps and Foleys combo? They're looking like they just met at times out there. Hook up well in broken play, but too many mistakes from what should be simple rucks.
