Healy can do very little about Farces allowing the Argentine tighthead to bind on his arm and pulling him down.

Rubbish - we're a yard off the pace. They are getting to the breakdown quicker and bridging over the ball more than us.

I've no idea what their bench is like.
Fitness will be an issue and again don't know what their fitness is like.

We're doing well considering the injuries we have. Lack of squad depth is the problem,

Has to be said - if we win this it will go down as one of the greatest if not the greatest Irish win of all time.

He defo bottled that call as all refs do but it's not his fault we lacked intensity and physicality, we're narrow in defense, flat-footed in attack, had no scrum, brainless decision making and generally threw the best opportunity of a semi final away.

We would have won this game with one man on them for half an hour, no doubt about it. Farces has been bent all day.

And how, no binding in with the head?
