[RWC2019][Quarter-Final 2] New Zealand vs. Ireland (19/10/2019)

[MattGaff]

C'mon Ireland..... make a game of it. Early try needed to stoke the fire

 

[Bruce_ma gooshvili]

ABs can play with some freedom here. I want to see a little razzle-dazzle as compensation for that first half.

 

[RugbyTackle91]

How many Irish players get in the ABs? Furlong??

 

[Reiser99]

Tbh I'm struggling to think of any Irish player with a good performance, but apart from one catch, Stockdale has been truly awful.

 

[Grizwald]

NZ good but an out of form Ireland buckling under the weight of the ocassion. Changing of the guard after the WC.

 

[Rinkadink]

Looks like I’m well out my depth in terms of law knowledge so I’ll change my original answer to “I don’t know”

It's all good, I just looked it up for you;

https://laws.worldrugby.org/?law=9&language=EN

9.14 (Foul play, dangerous play)
A player must not tackle an opponent who is not in possession of the ball.

 

[Not Eddie Jones]

Moody just ran right over Furlong.

 

[TheOvalBall]

My great great Irish grandmother would be so embarrassed watching this.

 

[Bruce_ma gooshvili]

Bridge in acres of space out wide then the super soft centre from the Irish defence. And the author of this defensive plan is the next Irish coach? Hire at haste, repent at leisure.

As would my Great Irish Grandfather....

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

If smith would have scored off that loop it would have been super unnecessary.

 

[MattGaff]

Who is in line to take over from Schmidt after the WC?
Can see a big clear out happening for the 6N

Didn’t know you had Irish in you @Every Time Ref ... my confusion strikes again!

Defensive supremo Andy Farrell

 

[Yoshimitsu]

Where’s Ardie’s specs?

 

[RugbyTackle91]

Out of the teams left in the comp, who can beat NZ?

 

[Bruce_ma gooshvili]

As would my Great Irish Grandfather....

As would my great Irish Setter.

 

[Not Mike Brown's Sock]

Out of the teams left in the comp, who can beat NZ?

England, Wales, France, SA, Japan

 

[Bada-Bing!]

Game over. So, so clinical.
