An exciting first half with plenty of running rugby. 17-13 to the Force but should have been much more!! Mightily impressed by the "Blue Crew".

Gutted :cry: :cry:

They just didnt turn up in the second half and yet nearly stole it in the end.

The ref certainly didnt do them any favours.

i know what was the story with those crooked feeds???

mind you they brought it on themselves a bit, they seemed to run out of ideas in the second.. and giteau should never have tried that drop goal at the end..

To say we are gutted is a understatement. Had numerous opportunites to have a handy lead at half time, but basic handling errors cost us dearly.
Second half we forgot to play like a team and shafted ourselves merrily.
The boys are very aware of not having a home win at Subi, so get a bit anxious. Still 2 from 4 and only lost both games by 1. We are playing good rugby with plenty of ticker. We will prevail.

Fantastic result last night belting the Poms. Well done Ireland :D

The local pub was a quiet, quiet place after the game... many a depressed and sorry Force supporter.

Anyway, so it goes. We might notch up home country win next week against the NSW Waratahs (Harrisons last Australian team before moving up your way)

As Burgs said, even after the darkest night, you can welcome a bright new morning - well done to the Irish lads at Croke!!

Heart breaking. Watched it on saturday morning. After watching the the Brumbies game which had just as an exciting finish, not that much else happened in that game.
