Kolisi must be one of the worst singers on Rugby fields, which isn't that important, but had to mention after that performance

Passion is his thing. In tune not so much

sparky

The game is about to get under way five minutes late.

Honestly, what's with all this bollocks before starting? Is that Bono's son singing Zombie?

W32

Euro cheaters I tell ya

sparky

Lively start by Ireland.

sparky

I don't like either of these teams much, but Ireland have a few Kiwis in their side so go them!

sparky

Boks scores. PSDT outstanding in the build-up.

sparky

That's Rugby, folks.

Great play by the Boks!

sparky

Ireland 0 Boks 5.

ACT Crusader

Forward pass….

Jailbreak7

See, why can't we play like tbat good front foot ball, the pack steam rollering over everything that stands and support players always on the shoulder

sparky

Great break by James Lowe.
Breathless start.

Sasha could be in trouble

ACT Crusader

TMO review coming

sparky

YC incoming?

ACT Crusader

Not sure who these commentators are, but they are at their cheerleading best

JayCee

It's not that bad IMO

I'm listening on Radio Ulster. Balanced and impartial they are not.

6mins before we get first TMO

sparky

Penalty, no YC is my call.

Tordah

Red Card for me, horrendous tackling "technique"

sparky

And the refs. Good call.

sparky

Ireland go for the corner.

Noisy Dublin crowd. Many of who will have been in the pub for most of the afternoon.

sparky

Very good goal line defence by the Boks. I hope the ABs are taking notes.

JayCee

Never looked rattled SA during that defensive effort

sparky

Great atmosphere.

ACT Crusader

Surely not? Springboks dropped two high balls.

But they are the bestest ever…

gawd the Irish players appeal a lot

Victor Meldrew

As a traditionalist, love the Oirish changing their jersey.

sparky

Ireland go for goal.

He's hit the posts.

Ireland 0 Boks 5. 20 minutes gone.

sparky

Tadgh Beirne goes over, but it's going to the TMO because of a Ryan clear out that looked a bit dodgy.

ACT Crusader

This ref is pretty solid. But the fact he has so much influence further highlights everything that is wrong with the game.

More TMO

sparky

That's going to be ruled out and perhaps a YC.

sparky

Pissed Irish crowd not happy.

The Irishman

James Ryan is a fucking idiot

sparky

YC for Ryan. Illegal clear out that made contact with the head. Going for a RC review.

Should be a 20-minute Red IMHO.

YC
As much as i hate them .. you can't blame anyone but Ryan ... that was dumb
