Javier - con lo que escribiste, has mostrado a nosotros que ya escribes como yo, un nativo (irlandés) jajaja. 🎉🎉Solo que yo no tengo un acento tan amable como el de Squidge 😂. Muy buen trabajo con tu inglés! Seguir así!

what an A class prick

Nah, pretty disrespectful to the likes of Bundee, Crowley, Murray, Tadgh Beirne and Nash. This joke is tired

​@@jessiechaptersLowe plays for Leinster

​@@jessiechaptersBut regardless, I love watching Ireland play but it's a pretty fair joke. Don't take it so personally, lots of countries have a small number of clubs and Ireland still won. What's to moan about ? It was clearly a joke and not criticism.

@@thomasgilbert8321 Yeah I made a mistake by listing Lowe. I just think it's a bad joke, it doesn't really make sense. I've seen this joke so many times and it's just not fair to the other players that make Ireland as good as they are.

There’s usually not much to say unfortunately. Scotland can’t compete

It’s his famous anti-Irish bias

Well, his lawn needs attention now... he'll be in like Quin on the lawnmower!

That's a great stat (and achievement fron the guys you mention obviously). I thought maybe Jonny Wilkinson had five 6N titles but turns out it's 'only' four. The late Christophe Dominici's international career spanned five French titles (including the 5N in 98) but he didn't play in one of them. Maybe there's another French player from that era to win five 🤔

Don’t start this again 😂

@@nkosinathimazibuko2561 I mean it is true. Was being purposely tongue in cheek with the in nearly a decade bit but....

Would rather lose to Ireland for a decade, than lose every quarter final in a world cup since it's inception.

@@AjaySalmon our cricket team

@@thelespower 🤣 truth, but we don't claim that our cricket team is the best in the world.

Not possible!

Exactly

Waken up, what do you think is causing the inconsistency? The players or the brick walls the officials introduce? Scotland have been victims to big decisions make wrong in the past five 6 nations, but there have been more in this 6 nations than all of those combined. At least one big decision in each game, and two big decisions in most games. That's ignoring the general brick wall like 17 penalties to 0 in a row against Wales where 9 wrong decisions were made. Wake up

We would not call them number 2 because New Zealand is number 2😂

​@@hannesbornman1045 what would you call the French mate..when they battered the kiwi, s?😂😂😂😂

@@michaelmoynihan9591 How does that logic go? NZ beat Ireland, France beat NZ, England beat Ireland, Ireland beat SA, SA beat England France and New Zealand. All there is to go on is the fact (how ever hard it is to face) that NZ ended up in the finals and neither France nor Ireland did. Sorry

An explanation on the try not being grounded, or the blocking to create the space for it would be great too.

Who was slow on the turn?

This isn't intended as a slight on the man since he played the ref (as all good rugby players should) but Christie lived offside for most of the game. Another ref might have penalised him for it but it was a great bit of gamesmanship by himself. Looking forward to seeing where Scotland go in future, though their U20's team would have most people concerned

There are many reasons to kick, but the big one is that territory is more important than possession. Playing Rugby in your own 22 is like playing football in your own penalty box, something will go wrong eventually, you are at high risk of giving away points. With rugby there is the added factor that the ball can only be passed backwards meaning that it can be bloody hard to move the ball from one end of the pitch to the other without putting it on the boot. So essentially it is easier to give possession away and then win it back in the opposition half of the pitch than it is to keep a hold of the ball in your own 22.

Same with Irish fans. Just make a video about how SA are the best team in the world and you'll see many Irish in the comment section. 😂

If you’re constantly kicking for the corner it means that you’re confident in your ability to win the game by more than 7 points. Ireland kick to the corner with the hope of blowing teams out of the water as early as they can, so that the team will have to catch up on the scoreboard. And when teams are desperate to catch up on the scoreboard they make mistakes and over play and that’s exactly what Ireland want. It forces them to turn down kickable penalties and they have to play with a similar approach to Ireland and teams are rarely able to do that against Ireland. It’s confidence in their ability to execute from set piece, while simultaneously being a way to avoid a close finish that could go either way. Ireland are similar to New Zealand in the sense that they don’t enjoy close games. They prefer to have the freedom to express themselves with a healthy lead on the scoreboard. Whereas South Africa have complete belief in their ability to see out a tight game. So it’s a double edged sword. They have an insane amount of belief in themselves to be able to score tries when the opportunity presents itself. The other side being, they aren’t extremely comfortable in a 3 point game. South Africa aren’t comfortable going all out and backing their set set piece to score tries and blow teams out early so they take the points on offer. Just a different psychology there’s two ways of looking at it.

Also, just want to point out, the South African approach to winning games is equally impressive I wasn’t saying one was better than the other. Just an example of two polar opposites who have complete belief in their philosophy. Just as South Africa don’t want a fast frenetic game, Ireland and New Zealand don’t want a slow game.

@@BobH-eh8wu it’s an interesting analysis

Sorry to say but the next 2 times will be in a few months time.

I hope so fervently you have to eat your unapologetic presumptious words.

@@justme9818 luckily hope is free. Shud be a good 2 matches.

Manners are free too!!!

​@@markwillies7666 South Africa are favorites for sure. But if Ireland cause an upset. I'm sure you will come up with an excuse. Blame El Nino or some cosmic entity.

They targeted specific players when doing that this is every tackle

The Irish plan was to tie the ball up and win a scrum turnover with the choke tackle. They often used more than just 2 bodies as well.

The choke tackle has a very specific aim ie. To create a turnover and win possession. It takes at least 2 defenders. Committing 2 players to each tackle is just doubling up the defensive numbers to pull down a bigger player or slow the ball down as Squidge describes here. There's no specific technique beyond 2 players tackling. A choke tackle aims to keep the attacking player upright as long as possible and stripping the ball from the player, turning the tackle into a maul or winning a penalty from the eventual ruck.

With that kind of analysis you should perhaps start your own channel!

That's a little bit of a simplistic view

You can’t look at the final score, ask “what if an early score hadn’t happened”, and assume that everything in between would have been the same. Without that try, Ireland would probably have kicked more penalties for 3 points, and still won. They dominated possession, territory, scrums, lineout wins, restart wins, 22m entries, and penalty count.

Ye irish only spend 36 minutes inside scotland half in last 40 minutes. 😂😂😂 clueless comment. Stat,s don,t lie.? Try ping pong kid.😂😂

Shame they didn’t match it in attack.. would have made for a fun game

What was there shot? The whole championship

@@Sineadhawk at anything other than a calcutta cup

Tuesday next week! It's coming!

Sour grapes

shoulda beaten France too, remember that game? :)

Beaten by Italy.😂😂 irish had ball 36 minutes of second half.stat,s don,t lie.stick to ping pong kid..10 in a row kid.😂😂😂

Got lucky 😂 Scotland didn’t score a try until the 77th minute. Irelands had 2 tries held up. Please stop

This is Scotland's problem all competition though; relying on decisions to go yr way is going to bite you on the arse 40% of the time. I don't want to look back on our best team in decades and think shoulda, woulda, coulda

Nothing to review there mate, the all blacks woke up that day and decided to be the all blacks. There, review done

I think he just decided for himself that Ireland deserved it whether it was grounded or not. It wasn't grounded, and there was blocking. Let's not pretend officials care about the laws or the whole tournament would look entirely different.

@@johnpollock7952saw you whinging on last years six nations matches aswell. Good to see you’re still around and haven’t changed 👍

Yeah but then it’s truly not a good consistent team. Like what’s the arguement then with six nations? Just don’t bother every other year

Yeah but furlongs was a try

It wasn’t a “try”; it was a real try.
