[RWC19 Warm-Up] - Wales vs. Ireland

[Bluemoon]

Nice finish from Lane.
And ifference for me has been the pace Tomos Williams has brought to the game. Considering the players Ireland have fielded today, it's not been the landslide it should have been

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Half back change has woken Wales up massively

 

[Not Eddie Jones]

Dreadful finish!

 

[big ginger 8]

Great by McGrath.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Great from McGrath

 

[Bluemoon]

Red card for me. Tackle to Dees head

Ireland don't really do landslides, even at our best. Not against decent teams. Our brand of rugby is more conservative.

You're at home and were expecting a landslide loss? This Ireland side is pretty experimental, way to grab the positives though.

Because Wales have put out pretty much the most inexperienced players, or players who've not played all year through injury. We don't have the depth to do that. I think it's been as good as it could have been.

 

[Rinkadink]

That's a really bad call against Wales for collapse there.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Pretty clear tackle in the air

 

[Not Eddie Jones]

Back to number 1 Ireland?

 

[Leinster Fan]

This could either be anything from a try for us to a yellow against us.

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Think I'd rather Aki get a 10 week suspension than a try here.

 

[big ginger 8]

Looks like a hit in the air at first look but one of those weird ones where jumping into tackle which is also illegal.

Edit: absolutely no need to jump there surely?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Weird one that,
He's jumped but had no reason to

 

[Leinster Fan]

Hard to see what else Aki could do there but definitely a penalty.

 

[ratsapprentice]

Play on.

Unless you are properly leaping into the air, it's not really that big a deal being tackled.

 

[TommiG88]

That was a weird one, did he need to jump?

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

He barely jumped, he simply tucked his feet in and had no reason to go off the ground at all.
