[RWC19 Warm-Up] - England vs Ireland

[ratsapprentice]

May broken?

Nooooooooo

Winded, or lacerated liver?

 

[Scotty]

Mays first mistake getting tha ball knocked out of his hand that leads to a try

What incentive do you have as an Irish player for the final 30 minutes unless your name is Byrne and you desperately need to prove yourself. Otherwise, your early in your warm-ups, tired as hell with no way back in this game, and the other prospect is picking up a world cup ending injury.....

 

[snoopy snoopy dog dog]

Crazy as it seems... there actually is for some reason.

Most here think Devin Toner should go. The spanner in the works is Joe Schmidt namechecking Jean Kleyn so often and the South African getting two starts in a row immediately upon qualifying for Ireland.

Trying to be positive, this hammering should set the reset button for Ireland and a number of players living off their reputations could now be dropped.

Of those who needed a big game today, Jean Kleyn and Ross Byrne will be very disappointed with how they played.

England have been sensational.

Winded, or lacerated liver?

I thought he'd done his wrist from the way he was cradling his arm but hoping he's actually just winded. Replays didn't show anything sinister


Edit: not subbed, which is good news

 

[Which Tyler]

Winded, or lacerated liver?

Looked like he was clutching his Hammy/knee immediately. Didn't see him in any follow-up angles

Yay, 57's on!

 

[HenryChinaski]

I thought in real time that wasn't legal from Manu
It's a weird one because he did swing with the shoulder then brought it back into a wrapped tackle. Initial shoulder still didn't look great. Fab to watch though!

 

[Bada-Bing!]

Manu smashed Larmour there.

 

[Scotty]

Big hit by manu, good timing, wrapped and an accidental knee after to tickle his face.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Night night llama

Kleyn ain’t anywhere near Taidgh Beirne imho but who knows what is going through Schmidt’s head atm.

 

[Jimbo]

Ouch feel for Larmour there, Manu levelled him...

 

[ncurd]

Fatties aren't supposed to do that!

 

[Bada-Bing!]

Superb try there.

 

[ratsapprentice]

Passing quality from 9 is so fundamentally important.

Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

 

[Which Tyler]

That'll do pig

If only Heinz had the pace to add sniping to his game. Probably his only big weakness.

 

[ratsapprentice]

LCD.

10. Sink
12. Curry
13. Underhill

Trial it Eddie, you coward

Like a FH being able to manage a game, a winger being able to run fast,. Prop being able to push or amlock being able to jump.
If you can't do the raison d'être for your position, then you'll never be more than a stop-gap
