Farrell does not look happy
Utter shite
Great attitude and effort but my god the handling errors and stupid penalties need to stop.
Wow you lucky bastards, I thought Argentina were going to PAGS you over 
Ah feck off. We beat a very good team who showed up on the night. Without the stupid mistakes that was a good performance. “Utter shite” is such a massive exaggeration.
We didn't score for about an hour. Far too many errors and poor decisions.
Said it last week, we are a team in complete decline. We need a reset
I seen with the bookies we are favourites to win the 6N but France & England will finish ahead of us next year, especially with Andy Farrell no longer in charge after these internationals. Wouldn't fancy us to beat Scotland in Edinburgh next year either

Big Joe has the most quintessential D4/D6 accent. His farmer ancestors spinning in their graves.
Ireland lack the conductor - I know it’s dead obvious without Sexton but I think the multiphase game is as strong as it used to be. It’s just that key decision making at vital moments that’s missing.
Teams are looking like they can soak up the multiple phases and wait for a bad decision or a forced play that ends in a knock on or a forward pass. It’s not miles away from getting that game right

Don’t you have England and France at the aviva? Should win it with those games at home
The second half was utter shite, the amount of penalties given away utter shite.
Not playing like this we won't. It'll be interesting to see how Easterby approaches things.
I still think you’ll be betting favourites in both. Maybe Gary Neville against France, but ahead of England
grrrrrrr that was close, but in general it was an even match and the Irish made three tries, so they deserved a bit more
VERY VERY silly penalties from us (well them too) but that last yellow was stoopid
Entertaining match, it wasn't today, we still can't beat them at home, but I hope we continue on the rise and Kremer comes back soon

Yeah, fair. Especially the penalties.
I think Crowley lost his way a bit after half time (class in the first half) We looked a lot better when Prendergast came on. Should really have kicked those points and had a much less stressful end to the game.
Also, don’t forget there were two teams in it. Argentina were great in the second half. So strong in attack and defence.

Gary Neville?
Level
Good to see you’ve been able to save yourself and the rest of us a bit of time there anyway.
I’m happy that you’re happy
I wouldn’t go that far.
Brilliant from Marcus Smith
Tough penalty call on PTSD there. I thought it was a great turnover.
Wow!
Steward again poor. Too easy
Would be nice if the ref wasn't blind and actually kept an eye out for offsides on the kicks
Out at an event today, how are England doing?
I was out too and only caught the last 20mins of the first half, but it looks pretty even to me.
Look pretty good with ball in hand. Ball seems to be coming quicker with JVP rather than Spencer, but we’ve missed his box kicking.
With the scrum penalties, England are always on the back foot.
Kolbe is just amazing.
How many players could step like that?

Although I see now the step was on the hooker
Boom!
Edit. TMO “no”. Hmmm..
But England have to be careful of that hinged defence. Fine if get “around” the ball/player but if a pass makes it outside, they’re done… like NZ last time.

Arendse. Pure pace.
SA on another level especially Kolbe.
That is incredibly harsh.
The lineout before the forward pass was nowhere near straight either.
I did think that as well.
Great take from that high ball.
TMO. Harsh
TMO. Harsh
He seems to just fall down there rather than it being a neck roll. Seems harsh.
