How was that not swimming up the side by Ireland...

Radwan vs Baloucoune when?

 

[Reiser99]

Nice try. Poor defending. USA 11 didn't notice the break until Baloucoune is nearly past him.

There's that 'heads up rugby' class.

His speed is Wednesday's new.

 

[Reiser99]

Least twice now Carbery has been run through by an attacker. If that was Ford everyone would be saying he can't tackle.

There's plenty of people worried about Carbery's defence since he's come back. Just doesn't generate the same discussion as Ford for a number of reasons.

The usual caveat of this being the USA obviously applies but they gave England a good game last week. Still we're playing some nice stuff at times. Great having a pack where everyone is really comfortable on the ball paired with halfbacks looking to play at pace.

Difference is that Ireland aren't giving away silly penalties and allowing USA momentum.

Addison on!
Time for Ireland to start actually playing now

 

[big ginger 8]

Doris needs to start using stick-um or something.

 

[Reiser99]

Yep that's a red

The American captain is right, Carberry's pass to Kelleher was forward. Doesn't change anything though.

 

[paddybrown]

Baby Byrne on.

That was a very nice recovery by Baloucoune

 

[paddybrown]

On comes Caolin Blade.

 

[big ginger 8]

Entire bench on before the 60th minute has to be some sort of record for us.

 

[paddybrown]

Harry does a Billy Burns, although not at such a crucial point of a match.

Lovely chip from Big Stu to Keenan. What's the TMO checking for?
