[June Tests 2018: 1st Test] Australia vs. Ireland (09/06/2018)

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Carberry looking very good.

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Sexy sexy Rob

 

[big ginger 8]

That's why Rob Kearney doesn't have competition for his spot.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

I don't get why we don't just have Aussies commentary to go with their video.

 

[munstermuffin]

I think my slating of Rob over the years has worked. He has improved massively this year again lol

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

That's what you get for praising rob...

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Henshaw is struggling at 13, twice he rushed and missed now.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Henshaw obviously wanting to replicate the Aussies huge hits but timing is off,
Costly error

 

[Hanley!]

Henshaw looking shaky in defense today. That's the second time he's done that and he barely got away with it the first time.

I've been harsh on Kearney for a long time and didn't think he was a deserving starter. The last year he's easily earned that spot again, he's been playing really well.

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Did Genia go out there? Looked like it to me.

Edit: Replay looked very close but I reckon he clipped it

 

[TommiG88]

So the praise of Rob has gone to his head.

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Rob. Pls stop. We love you.

 

[TommiG88]

Did Genia go out there? Looked like it to me

In by a couple of inches.

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

In by a couple of inches.

ooh matron

 

[Hanley!]

O'Mahony having a brilliant game so far. Great to see him delivering as captain.

The game is still tight, and Australia won't be able to put those hits in going into the final quarter. With our bench as strong as it is, we still have a good shot at this one.

 

[Leinster Fan]

We've been okay. Australia have done a better job of stopping us than the 6N teams. O'Mahony, Aki and Carbery are all having very good games. Pleasantly surprised by John Ryan as well.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Stander was held.

Needed to place it the other way

 

[big ginger 8]

I'd say that's held up, good start though.

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Outstanding effort by DHP

 

[TommiG88]

Think that's a try. But it won't be given.
