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

Obviously, they haven't.

But we tried to run out the game management, as I said on Saturday to you, Nathan.

The game management to run that play

in the 22 when there was nothing to suggest they were going to be able to other than having a man advantage and they give Will George the try Ireland have played more or less exactly the same as they did in the Six Nations slightly different with because Crowley wasn't there more tailored towards Prendergast but that's the game you've got to play when you have those players

It's a different 10.

So you have Prendergast versus Crowley and we play a lot more phases with Prendergast.

So Crowley is probably more of an attacking threat and will kick.

And the Beast was to kick as well.

There also is a different competition.

There's, you know, you can't lose a game in the Six Nations.

So, you know, I think there's a different context and intuition.

I did channel my inner John O'Sullivan-ness.

Joe McCarthy with a bit of footwork at the line was devastating.

Stu McCluskey a couple of times, footwork.

Stu McCluskey didn't have his greatest game and I think they managed to get the best out of him.

But still, I'd say his, for high value moments, I'd say Stu McCluskey provided probably three most important attacking bits that we had in the game.

Two of them were an offload and one of them was a carry.

That's not a fair question to ask because that's not our job, I'll be honest, because I will be speculating at best.

That's Andrew Goodman's job.

So he has to find a way to change our attack with Frawley, Brandegast and Crowley and potentially Harry Byrne.
