Anyone got any link t’wireless coverage?
Think twitter is the best we can do for this one.
Hepetema with the try, Myler converts. 0-7.
Nottingham level with a try scored by their prop from 20 metres out. 7-7.

Nottingham Twitter says 40 metres. Now I don't know who to believe
Ojo just forced into touch in the corner. Apparently, we are looking dangerous.
Leaking tries so quickly after scoring doesn't reflect well on our defence. Somebody needs to have a word onfield. Cmon you irish.
Try Irish
Notts 14 - 21 Irish

Sounds like we only just managed it though, hopefully the team talk will do as good a job as last week's
The first half match report will be interesting whether it is seen as a great Nottingham attack strategy or poor Irish defence. Time for Irish to show that potential Premiership capability and put this game to bed.

I am struggling to understand what has happened to a good Irish defensive team. Are Nottingham that good...

Never been a fan of our defensive coaching set up. It hasn’t inspired any confidence at all. Even in this league we seem to be able to let in too many scores. For me, that falls at the feet of the defence coach
I love and hate following twitter with a passion as there seemed so much wrong in the Irish defense and not seeing it makes it even worse. While not being able to see the game as an Irish supporter is restrictive in judgement of performance, however I hope the management can understand what needs to be done to improve the side. Well done Irish "a win is a win" and hopefully we can build on this for the games against the top teams.

Notts seem tough away. We got a 5 point win. It's Friday. Job done I guess.

Would be good to see some extended highlights (or even the full game!).
It seemed to me that we had to work harder to score than Nottingham, this was down to two things, firstly the ball from the ruck was slow and predictable, giving Nottingham ample time to reset their defensive lines and secondly, Nottingham broke our defensive line too easily, in the end we were lucky to come away with the win.
Are we there yet? No chance.

Nice to see a couple of tries from backs this week! Didn't go to the game so can anyone say who impressed? Judging from twitter it sounds like hepetema and Albert were good
Any idea what happened to Matt and Rory pre-match? Warm-up knocks or illness?

It was Scott and Matt that were replaced but no mention on the Offy report.
Terence had a good game, he is a slippery customer, there scrum half and right winger were also good.
Yes it was... disconnect between brain and finger, not unusual for me ☹
Just watched the highlights, pretty depressing. Backs need some serious tackling practice, their prop rounded our full back far too easily and that was one example of many. They scored far better tries than us, four of ours coming from tedious mauls which won’t be as effective if we go up. Need to see fat better performances from here on in as that dross will leave us anchored to the bottom of the Premiership next season.

10..... sorry, 9 signings are coming to change that. So I’m told.
9? What happened to the 10th?
Hopefully one of the signings is an attack coach (a defense coach wouldn't go amiss either)

Hopefully 9 more on top of dell who is already announced
Having watched the highlights, the first try comes from Albert jumping out the line which is something he'll learn from but the tackle attempt from meehan was poor. Seemed to be a bit slippery underfoot which added to the defensive problems for both teams.
Couple of really nice touches from hepetema both for his try and for mylers try

When I played prop I scored once, but from about two yards out. It was fromhalf way by the time we got on the coach back after the third half
Faugh-a-Ballagh!
