Seems the Argies are going to play against Ireland B next week.
France penalty… was just going to say Ireland were playing the phases very well
Fantastic discipline again by France, they refuse to concede penalties, yet are brutal on defense, wonderful from them
Ireland steal another vital French lineout
Another French penalty, against O’Brien…

23 long minutes left, 8 points.
Not even close to being a big enough lead 😀
Attacking French lineout, halfway into the Irish 22
Huge turnover Ireland
Ireland steal French ground ball, O’Brien again, the nuggety loosie!
France is being destroyed by the oirish kicking game.
Ireland just want this game more, I think!
However, a French penalty again…
Again France don’t concede a penalty, this is the best defensive discipline I’ve seen in a very long time
Keith Earls replaced…
Bsatareaud also replaced
@ nortie:
Get the feeling that Ireland wants this game more. French don’t seem to want the ball.
France kickable penalty… on the Ireland 10m line
Ireland 14 / 9 Ireland
Slimani off, Mas on
@ The_Young_Turk:
Ireland don’t seem to make much headway with the ball they have, fantastic French defense and refuse to concede kickable penalties
Ireland know if they lose this game their WC ends in the QF as they have never beaten the ABs while on the other hand the French know they can beat the ABs.
15 Minutes to go… the deficit is ONLY 5 points…
Mike Ross replaced by Nathan White
France also with more changes
Slap ball by Ireland in the lineout, French lineout
@ nortie:
However, don’t get me wrong, I am not writing off the Frogs! Never ever write off a frog – you never know the moment they will jump out of the boiling water 😉
The Nigel Owens concussion test:
” are you ok? what’s my name?”
gotta love that guy.
France penalty advantage, high tackle.. penalty it is.
Ascendency going towards France now, Nigel penalizing the Irish, France giving nothing away.
If France draw level or take the lead now, it’s their game
Ireland scrum, on about their own 22…
Come on France, moer the Oirish sommer stukkend!
12 Minutes to go in the game.
Ireland needs a good exit from their 22 now!
