Poc cant stop a jumper not jumping and kelleher stuttering on throws during games
Its up to the players to put what they practice into play on the field.
We are not talking about off the cuff stuff , these are set plays and getting calls wrong to me is down to the players on the field .

It can't be all down to all the players. The lineout has been shite for a full season now. Whether he was the cause of it, I don't know, but he's certainly not the solution. Time is up.

17-17 now. NZ with their 3rd yellow card of the game.

Scotland are some lads to get in their own way. They're having a crack off them but putting a stick in their own spokes at crucial times.

NZ are some lads to get in their own way...



This is great rugby.

3 yellows for NZ , World Rugby won't like that.

Maybe but lineout much better imo with sheehan on field but yeah improvement issential no doubt, farell referenced it after game and seemed to back coaches saying timing issues and we will get those right

Savage finish from mckensie , what a piece of skill 17_22

That was such an enjoyable game of rugby. Scotland threw the kitchen sink at them and did very little wrong. Damien McKenzie has 5 minutes of unplayable rugby and wins the game for NZ.
Madness.

Paul O’Connell doing an incredible job with the Irish lineout……ffs if he was from Leinster this pace would blow up

You'd have to say that over the two games, Crowley hasn't really grabbed his opportunity. The pack has been really poor, but i don't think that's am excuse that's going to cut it.
