Well we still can't kick the round ball !! I wonder would we do any better with the oval ball ?? This game is pure rubbish !!

We are very bad at football!!!

Ireland can't kick scores at all. Tactics seem to be all wrong again, no runners off the player in possesion, and taking the ball into Australian tackles all day.

We haven't seen one Irish player put in a tackle also.

Ireland back into it.

Bernard should of buried that. Seán Cavanagh has joined the game finally!!

McKiernan showing why, in my opinion, he's as good as anyone in the country.

Seán Cavanagh only starting to play since they brought him out ,

If this a representation of the best Gaelic footballers in Ireland, then we should be ashamed and embarrassed to say it is one of our national games.We cant catch, kick, kick a pass to a team mate or score points with a round ball; all the basics of our game. The Aussies are far superior in every aspect of the game and they are playing a game where 80% of the rules favour Ireland. TERRIBLE!!

cluxton lost that game by giving back possession to the Aussies time after time with his stupid self indulgent kick outs

why oh why didn't the sideline see this

yeah cluxton should have been an outfield player teh way he was playing betetr just to have a goalkeeper who saved shots and then passes to the nearest defender so he can work it up the pitch, a really really done to the management though for changing the team around, was far better to watch and they didnt play that stupid soccer game they were playing last week.

Have to agree about Cluxton, everytime they scored it took us 10 minutes to get up our end again.

Saying that though our kicking cost us, if 5 of them behinds over the two weeks had have been overs that would have been our game.

Anyway congrats Australia, deserved their vistory.
