Apart from kick, and he did that well tonight in fairness to him, what does Pollard offer the team? Ball kicked dead from kick off, wide pass at shin height to Kolbe who was clearly in the gap, dinky little chip straight into the arms of the full back to mark the ball....
      We will not win if we persist with our 5 year old 2019 RWC game plan of our forwards winning penalties and Pollard kicking them. Not once did we look like scoring because our real playmaker went off with a HIA in the first couple of minutes.

    Im not even disappointed because it was a proper battle. The Springboks gave faught bravery but Ireland was a better team on the day. Congratulations and well done to them.

    if you are as old as Naas Botha it is disappointing to lose against drop goals but very well-done Ireland, dominant especially in the rucks - world class defense.

    What a finish to a match!! Absolutely delighted as an Irish fan with the way the team fronted up. Serious guts from Frawley for the drops. Veins of ice.
    I am more impressed though with the unbelievable South African supporters. It's not only home to the best rugby team in the world, but also the best supporters.
    Thank you to the people of South Africa for showing what the game is all about. From coaches to players to fans. Bula boss!
    Thanks Tim too. Love the channel. You are a true rugby fan yourself. Always non-partisan. ❤

    Most of the pundits wrote Ireland off for the second test match, but Ireland have not lost two consecutive matches under Farrell's tutelage. Even with a large amount of injured players, Ireland was able to scrape out a win.

    If that ain't the best end to test match what is.
    What a game,blood everywhere, injuries everywhere.
    1-1 test could ask for more but my god the guts to hit two drop goals from that distance is insane. The atmosphere deserved an amazing game and it got it.
