Not enough daylight despite the chances

Ireland should grind the win out

They won't fuck it up like Wales did

Irish bench is meh. If Aussie score first after the break it’ll be tough.

W32

Australia playing well. Ireland look worse every week

Schmidt>>>>Razor

Wallabies looking good.

sparky

Ireland there for the taking in the second half.

McReight is probably the best 7 in the world imo. Outstanding player.

JayCee

Wallabies looking decent.
Suaalii looking like he has all the time out there with ball in hand.

Billy Tell

Ireland playing fast off line out rather than maul. 2 tries so far.

Where was the tmo for that Irish knock on?

Schmidt has something like 11 years at international level. Apples and pears.

sparky

Penalty kick over for Australia.

Ireland 15 Australia 19

sparky

Nick Frost has had a big game for Australia.

Dodge

Australia defence has been immense, really impressive. Like the look of this side. James Lowe on the other hand, is having a shocker and moans and dives like a little girl

Dodge

Aussie number 4 (don’t know his name sorry) is having a massive game.

McReight with another crucial turnover.

sparky

Slipping away from Australia here. They need some sustained possession.

sparky

A third lineout try for Ireland.

Billy Tell

Bad play from Wright gifts Ireland a lineout

sparky

Ireland leading 20-19.

JayCee

Ireland's sub halfback making a huge difference

sparky

Conversion over 22-19.

Dodge

Ireland infront with 6 to play, they’re still a good side. Aus need some territory and some sustained possession, hoping for a barn storming end

sparky

Sua'ali'i has been quiet so far today.

Dodge

I think the ref has had a good game, I have one minor complaint, Ireland have to be told several times at every break down to leave it, or hands off, or roll away. It’s frustrating and should be pinged quicker

sparky

Crowley overcooks his kick. Australia will have a finish chance to win in the last three minutes.

sparky

Enmed off with a HIA.

sparky

Intercept. Ireland have the ball. That is probably that.

sparky

No. Irish knock on. Australia have the ball. 90 seconds to go.

sparky

Harry Potter comes on. Can he performed a bit of wizardry to win this?

sparky

Huge Irish scrum. But one of their players puts a hand in the subsequent ruck.

sparky

20 seconds to go. Australia with a final chance to win this.

Dodge

Ireland get home, fair play. But Australia are back. Why can’t we have Schmidt

sparky

Irish defence holds and they win a penalty.

sparky

All over. Ireland 22 Australia 19.

Australia won't able to secure enough of the ball in the last 15 minutes of that match. All of Ireland's bench did their jobs well there.

sparky

Ireland will keep second place in the world ranking.

Ireland are favorably refereed in the rucks. How many times did they contest the ball without being on their feet ? That was already the case against the All Blacks.

Bones

Fucking hell Aussie you had that, useless fluffybunnies.

Dodge

I swear I’m blind to the Dorris thing, don’t rate him and don’t understand how he just won man of the match

Tbf, his try reminded me of Read. Wasn't really watching close enough to comment on the rest of the game.
