Van der Vlier is off injured and replaced.

I get the feeling Ireland are’nt letting the ball go wide enough, rather keeping it a few meters around the rucks and mauls…

Ireland very kickable penalty, playing the man without the ball.

Shot it is.

Messy game… but it is raining, so I suppose that is the primary reason.
43

grootblousmile on 3 February 2018 at 8:13 pm

CJ Stander over the ball, Ireland penalty…

Good attacking opportunity from this lineout.
44

grootblousmile on 3 February 2018 at 8:14 pm

Another Ireland penalty, and again it is kickable…

Does’nt look like we’ll see tries in this match.

French player down, ref stops play… it is Dupont
54

grootblousmile on 3 February 2018 at 8:36 pm

Dupont is taken off… he was the replacement scrummie.

Now there is a discussion whether this was a head assessment… but it was his flippen knee that was treated… scandalous!
