[RWC19 Warm-Up] - Ireland vs. Wales

[big ginger 8]

Some line in fairness. Poor spacing from us but the Welsh did well to draw us in. Crap positioning by Raynal.

 

[Jockstap]

Kleyn looks like he can barely walk already.

Thought Aki was responsible for their try, Great line but his eyes seem to get drawn in very easily close to the line. Otherwise think both he and Henshaw have looked great.

Patchell caught an elbow and knee to the head
No wonder he's failed his HIA test

Stander trucked him nothing nefarious in it all

If you're gonna be childish at least be consistent.

 

[big ginger 8]

Brilliant from Larmour, plenty of Welsh in that ruck.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Think Wales must feel sorry for how bad Ireland's lineout is

 

[big ginger 8]

Does Raynal have the slowest scrum cadence in World Rugby?

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Might have to eat the old Ringrose words... Midfield has been great.

I sincerely apologise Olly for that Freudian Slip

O'Stander
O'Aki
Jean "Paddy" Kleyn

Anyone else I'm missing

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Don't rate this Welsh backrow
Moriarty has been completely anonymous every time he's played recently,
Wainwright/Tipuric as a combination doesn't work - they're both obviously very talented players but they're too lightweight as a combo, both getting monstered in contact/blown away at rucks.
Need Navidi on one of the flanks to add some bite
Think Faletaus injury is gonna be felt more than initially thought

 

[jcahill1]

James Ryan is a monster, we're lucky to have him.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Excellent maul defence

Edit: very questionable angle of entry from Henderson

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

This hasn't been a great thread for some casual xenO'phobia eh?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Carty quickly becoming my favourite Irish player

More than POM?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

More than POM?

I can't even joke about pretending to like him

Obviously O'Haley and Addis'o'n are my two true baes
