I expected Ireland to be comfortably ahead by now…

Gori kicks it dead… scrum way back inside the Italy 10m area
Ireland today has undone a lot of what they have managed in the WC so far.
Up to today they were one of the top most impressive sides, Australia definitely took over that mantle yesterday, but I can see France licking their lips for next week.
Ireland penalty and the metronome, Sexton, slots it.

If Italy wants to win this, they better do something very soon!
Afternoon, I see some friendly faces have logged in here for yet another RWC game!
Although most of you will have nodded off as it is not exactly thrilling!
Nice Sunday snooze 🙂

In a nutshell
@ nortie:
Yes.., the Aussies are looking great… and they have an out of the box thinking coach who can perhsps hide their weaknesses in a clever way.
The strenght of the group they are in might count eventually against them though . for their sake i hope they have not peaked yesterday already.. its going to be hard for them to match that performance again.
Again Conor Murray puts an uppie over the maul…
Ireland are playing dumb “skop and jaag” rugby….
Reset scrum….
10 Minutes to go in the game
Italy lineout inside their own 22…
