[RWC19 Warm-Up] - Wales vs. Ireland

[rugga658]

His "list" of foreign players was copied from a poorly researched and wildly inaccurate YouTube video. That's the level of professionalism this guy is at.

The list had some flaws but Pichot's point was spot on

Adults moving to Tier 1 Nations should not play International Rugby for that nation

There'll be a handful of exceptions

I'd call it the Gareth Anscombe Clause

Lovely try that one. That's where Carty is strong. He finds gaps and offloads well. Not sure how legal Farrell was when he overran it, but would have been criminal not to score.

 

[Not Eddie Jones]

Well this game is slow as hell, wonder how much time ball has been in play? We need some law changes, time off after knock on and time back on as ball goes back into scrum?

Can you say that again? We could see another try!

 

[Groundhog]

Should have been a Welsh penalty there haha. Man on the ground just knicked it.

 

[Bluemoon]

Navidi caught flat footed second missed tackle, but the whole defensive line needs to be working together.

Considering the players Ireland have in this team; I’m ok with the welsh effort so far. Need a bit more fluidity in the backline and need to keep the defence sharp. Need a line break or two before half time

Back to 4th I feel much better about the World Cup now

 

[Rinkadink]

Can you say that again? We could see another try!

Game slow as hell, we need someone to dump tackle whoever is on the pitch.

Anyone seen @bushytop ?

 

[Groundhog]

Imagine presumably streaking in a world cup warm up game. A small man for a small moment. Get your shaft out at a final like a damn man.

 

[ThebigARena]

Somebody had too many sherberts

 

[Rinkadink]

Well, we got a penalty... does that count?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Nice try assist from Shingler

 

[Rinkadink]

Try again!

Holy ****, it works.

*** I'm charging next time, if you're Irish and fancy topping up my PayPal...

 

[Leinster Fan]

You could tell he was going to score the instant the ball went lose.

 

[ThebigARena]

Don't understand going for the posts this would be a good opportunity to practice the attacking lineout option

 

[big ginger 8]

Seems to have the best luck with the bounce of the ball of any player. As soon as he got a boot on it you know Stockdale would score. Helps not having the drag factor of the hair.

 

[Ferrari333SP]

Great score

 

[Bluemoon]

Two soft try’s now really. Shingler won’t be on the plane after that.

 

[Aristodemus]

How much do Ireland need to get rank 1, anyone know?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Stockdale cutting his hair is like when Piccolo took off his weighted clothes

It works!
