Appearances
They found a way to win a game with a misfiring line.
They found a way to win and scrum issues.
They found a way to win a game where it wasn't perfect.
They also had four debutants in total in the game.
Yeah, on the pitch, yes, absolutely.
In the matchday 23, 8 Leinster, yeah.
I wouldn't have been as gung-ho where there were six points in the game with 10 minutes left.
I think when you're 70 minutes into a test match and you, you being Ireland, have kind of dominated and you still have your backside sitting out the window a little bit with six point lead going into the last 10.
If you don't have pace on the edges, there's no point in playing to the edges.
And that was a problem for Ireland today.
It was where could they make the line breaks?
Where could they go?
Hugo Keenan did a remarkable job of getting through the contact point and out the other side, albeit in a tackle.
But if you look at Jimmy O'Brien and Jamie Osborne, what did they do in attack?
And Ireland never really got the ball to them, in fairness to them, that way.
And defensively, they looked like two players who were playing a little bit out of position, more so Jamie, I think, than Jimmy O'Brien.
But Jimmy O'Brien made errors in other ways.
So if you take that, only Stuart McCluskey
And Hugo Keenan in the back line would have been positive contributors, if you like.
Gary Ringrose with a couple of very good tip-on passes and a good appreciation of vision and space.
