That was a poor decision from the tmo, Daly’s foot clearly looked in touch as he grounded the ball. If a decision like that went against us I’d be very annoyed. We got lucky there.

Good call - I had completely forgotten that one myself

Now let’s aim for the lbp at least

No, it was the correct call - see my previous post!

Indeed, not in possession of the ball so a good try

Actually he gave Daly that try. His foot looked certain to be out. It was very poor from Daly.
Doesn't matter, legs are allowed to be out if you're touching a ball that is already touching the ground!

I thought it looked like he had his hand on the ball before it was on the ground. And his foot was definitely in touch, that’s certain. I’ll have to look over it but upon first viewing it looked like it should have been disallowed.

Desperate conversion attempt

It would be miracle if we got a lbp at this rate. With that backline and the hope that no one else had to go off, we could end up with cronin going to 12 just to give us go forward ball. Pack need to keep it tight for longer as the backs are being asked to cover all over the pitch. Ospreys aren't a great side either. C'mon lads

In any case we didn't deserve that try, woeful performance. We are useless way too often away in Scotland and Wales. We're in a decent position to come back in the second half. At least a lbp is achievable.

Can anyone explain the logic that I have to watch this on a dodgy stream. I understand the cost of sending in TV cameras to do a highlights package is a lot less than an outside broadcast truck. So we will have to accept occasionally we will have a game where no one will pick it up for live broadcast given the fractured TV deal we have. But here, we have a broadcaster. The cost of a live broadcast has been spent. Why would the Pro14 not want to capitalise on that and get it broadcast to as many as possible including a TV market with an interest in the game. Either by getting sc4 to lift their geo block on their stream or getting tg4 to stream it on their website, etc. Or if all else fails, stream it on the Pro14 site themselves.
It makes no sense to me.
When are we going to have world where I can just pay leinster x amount and have all their games on my tv and be done with it.

You prefer to steal content rather than pay for it.

Ross Byrne goes into contact far too high and not getting ball to ground

Haven't learnt anything from 1st half. Really terrible performance.

carlow man · Post by **carlow man** » March 24th, 2018, 8:44 pm

Jeez ross byrne makes Noel Reid look like sonny Bill! Pathetic. Why is he constantly running into contact? Dumb!!

After 47 minutes this is one of the worst displays I have seen.
Lucky to be 11 behind.

Blame that on Adam Byrne. Very very poor kick chase and no attempt to catch ball.

What a joke. Turn the telly off lads. A night to forget.

This could get very ugly if we don't get our act together.

I though it was Daly.
But Ross Byrne needs to get a hold of this game, he has being poor so far.
