[2017 RBS Six Nations] Round 3: Ireland vs France (25/02/2017)

[munstermuffin]

Irish front being man shamed

Best and McGrath struggling to get in to game. Furlong doung ok

 

[Jockstap]

Irish crowd needs to wake up and get behind the team, Aviva weirdly quite.

 

[Brabander]

Best hasn't impressed me this whole 6n campaign yet.

 

[ncurd]

That was a lovely bit of interplay between Sexton and Ringrose

 

[munstermuffin]

In fairness Sexton being back seems to lift backline noticeably.

 

[Brabander]

Murray!

 

[munstermuffin]

Boom. Murray magic

 

[McTallshort]

Better from the Irish scrum

 

[ncurd]

Murray proving why he'll be Lions scrum half.

 

[Groundhog]

Slimani was never taking the hit on that scrum. Clever but illegal.

 

[Jockstap]

Er, was that not a double movement?

 

[munstermuffin]

Er, was that not a double movement?

Think Owens said it was because he didn't move but came down off bodies

 

[Groundhog]

Momentum carries him onto the pile and then he uses his movement to place the ball.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Ireland are getting away with murder at the breakdown
France getting done for going off feet yet every breakdown has a green shirt sealing off without so much as a whisper from Nige

 

[munstermuffin]

I've feeling if we score here we will get a BP

 

[McTallshort]

Yellow card coming

 

[Groundhog]

Best must make better decisions.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Mega maul defence

 

[munstermuffin]

Really impressed with French. Noves is doing a great job

 

[gaston le gaff]

well so far so good, desperate at times but just about held them out, and with the lashing rain, snow, wind and the sun against Ireland in the second half we could be in with a shout
