RWC: Japan v Ireland (Pool A)
-
Japan coming out firing but Ireland have matched them too so far.
-
Better kick.
5-3 Ireland.
-
Lemeki running far too high there.
-
few holes appearing in the dam
-
for some reason, Ireland irritate me immensely. Disciplined rugby, but a classic case of a team that plays lwo risk rugby waiting for a penalty. Their game against SA will be massive
-
@nzzp they dont look happy with Garnder at some of his breakdown calls

They spend a lot of time whinging. Very well coached, but, very structured and physical
-
Mafi looks like he’s been in a brawl...
-
That seemed a rough penalty, let the ball, got up and then played. Especially with some of the ones they let go.
Did they say the Irish player still had his leg held?

Awful call.
Aus comms completely miss it too.
-
That was a harsh call on Murray. But then Henderson should have been penalised.
-
Murray looked bewildered at being pinged for using the body on the ground for support
-
Tier 1 execution, patience and skill from Japan.
Murray should have gone to the bin for that.
Knew exactly what he was doing.
Should be 9-12 save for the poor first kick from Japan.
-
Excellent scrum Japan. Held it and then pushed. Penalty.
-
Need points here Japan.
-
Leitch the best player on the park
-
Some massive hits in this game.
Intensity wise it’s up their with the Boks and ABs match.
-
Thought Japan would be targeting the Scotland and Samoa matches but if they keep this up this could be the ultimate smash & grab
Japan 9 - 12 Ireland
