The Counter Ruck: The Irish Times Rugby Podcast · Where do Ireland go from here? · 21 Jul 2026 podcast

Scotland came back against Fiji when previously they might have run out the door.

Argentina, England, we'll get to that and whatever the heck went on there.

So I think they probably have done that, but you do wonder, they're going like, lads, you can't just abandon player welfare and player safety.

If it is, in adverted commas, your number one agenda point for world rugby is player safety, you can't have your cake and eat it in this instance.

They're looking for mitigation.

And I think once you're looking for mitigation, you are now not putting player welfare at the top of your agenda.

Ireland at that point were 14-0.

I think it has a big impact on the game.

But if you play it out, they're playing that period where they probably don't give Will Jordan a run in.

And well, he was still off at that point.

So maybe, yeah, that point is gone.

But they play the opening 10 minutes of the second half with a numeral advantage.

And Ireland were better at the...

after the break than New Zealand were so they started brighter so I think it has a it has a compounding effect maybe not the result but definitely you know Ireland could have walked away with a four try bonus and a losing thing and then a bit more shape on it and you're kind of looking at it going okay well that would have been a fair reflection on the game

I'm okay with the Quinn Tupai one, got to say.

Really?

I'm okay with it.

Yeah, I was watching it in real time.

He went out.

If he flicks that up to himself, if he manages to flick that up and catch it, I would say he is 80% trying to catch it and then 20% trying to intercept the pass.
