Wallabies v Ireland - Test #2 (Melbourne)

[NTA]

Pretty even. That Wallaby lineup is building some good experience levels prior to 2019.

[MiketheSnow]

Better cattle & balance for Ireland.

Fancy them to take it in the rain.

My game one analysis was the kiss of death for Ireland, so I can't see that Wallaby team ever being beaten. Particularly not this weekend.

Might not be raining much (showers predicted for Melbourne) but it'll be cold - tops of 12-13C the next couple of days which means probable single figures by kick off (8PM local).

[antipodean]

It'll feel like ~3°C and dropping at kick off.

Beale scored a stunner up the middle.

[Stargazer]

Deserved yellow for Koroibete for a lifting tackle.

Farrell's defensive systems coming to the fore. I could've drive a bus through that gap. Beale too good not to make it count.

[Tim]

Paul Williams is not my favorite ref.

Right now I’m looking at Ireland thinking I’m glad we played France not ireland , on tonight’s performance, we would get beaten by a team with this accuracy

Given the letter of the law red card interpretation earlier I thought the spear tackle might've been red - looked like intentional drive into the ground

[Tim]

@kiwiinmelb Both these teams would do us tonight.

[Tim]

That card is some real bulllllshit.

[mimic]

Yeah, for me it's a YC or a PT. Getting both is harsh.

[Tim]

Why is this clown reffing a big test match? Not even one of the better NZ refs, who are pretty poor anyway.

[Stargazer]

What a terrible kick.

Yeah I was concerned there for a minute it would go red, and you couldn't say it would be undeserved.

Stupid

[Tim]

What an awful kick.

[mariner4life]

Haha pocock dives over, seals the ball. Ref for some reason gives aussies scrum feed

[Tim]

@mariner4life Yeah, didn't Pocock just completely go straight to ground and seal it off? Never let the guy release either.

Awful ref.
