[2022 Six Nations] England vs Ireland (12/03/22)

[Groundhog]

EZ money. England haven't done much, just thrived off our mistakes and discipline. Their pack have been pretty good and made life hell for us. Just need to settle it down and play ball. We're cutting them open when we get the ball past 10.

 

[ncurd]

Honestly it's fair try but if Sinckler was out cold Raynal should of stopped play for the penalty.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Not sure how the quick tap could happen when a player is down like that

 

[Reiser99]

How far away from the mark was that tap

Literally opposite sides of the ruck, which took two defenders out

One week a ref doesn't even let quick taps be taken, another ref lets it be taken from anywhere. Got to love consistency.

 

[Jashay]

Sinckler down cold and Simmonds checking on him was what created that gap

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

Teams gaining 15+ meters and still being allowed back for the penalty is part of the game I really don't like

eh, 15 meters at professional rugby isn't much of an advantage. Teams usually gain like 25 on the kick or get an attempt at goal. We shouldn't be penalizing teams for attempting to play or else they would just never try to play with advantage.

 

[Groundhog]

Randall played for the pen three times in a row there. Third time lucky. Henderson has played like an idiot so far.

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

has to be a yellow on Henderson

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Ireland lying all over the wrong side of the ruck so many breakdowns in a row, Randall had to act like that for the ref to care

 

[ncurd]

That was absolutely brain dead penalty by Ireland.

 

[McTallshort]

Should have been a yelliw

 

[big ginger 8]

Henderson needs to be a bit smarter, given away a few penalties. Shouldn't be doing that with his experience and standing.

 

[Bluemoon]

has to be a yellow on Henderson

I felt it was close to the same. Thought it was very deliberate and right in front of the ref

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

that was some Hartley tripping a dude from the ground type stuff

 

[Duck a l'Orange]

Smith so confident he's going for trick shots.

 

[Jimbo]

Best part of this game so far is knowing we will not see Sexpest throwing a temper tantrum at twickers again.

 

[Duck a l'Orange]

Got to love Ewels following up a reasonable performance that made people take notice with literally the worst performance possible.

 

[Reiser99]

Well considering we're down to 14 it's not awful. England need a try though from somewhere as they won't win by kicking penalties and they don't look like scoring a try.

 

[AlRums]

You lot usually wait for the end of the match to whinge about the ref.

Today you are surpassing yourselves

 

[big ginger 8]

Must be handy for Sexton, there's so many places in England that he can live rent free.
