Lads run and kick the ball into touch all the time. What rule is it when that’s a penalty?
Surely he could have fell over the line from 5 yards if he caught
There are subtle differences between carrying, knocking and kicking a ball into touch. You’d need to be a gentleman to understand.

Another bang to the head for Johnny
Conway following up might have got it though.
I wouldn’t be overly confident here. I’d be predicting France 23-19 Ireland unfortunately.
The ref here is a gas man, cool as fuck
He didn’t kick it into touch.
People run the ball into touch on purpose also all the time
But he didn’t run it in. He flicked it.
Rugby is very nuanced like that.

Why do Ireland still play in this attritional style with no skill that gets torn apart in every World Cup?
He didn’t run it into touch either.
Schmidt to blame
Because we have no skill.
I actually though Jack Carty’s few cameos in the last RWC were the most innovative plays I’d seen from IRL in yonks.
It’s hardwired into the players
You’re like the lads who give up their Friday night to give out about the LLS 
It’s rugby, you were hardly expecting to be entertained?
James Lowe will add a bit of creativity and an off the cuff style soon.
Murray did well there kicking the ball away
A nasty piece of work
