A win on their first tour game. New Zealand need to sort out that discipline & learn quick to stop the maul #STOvNZ #STOvNZL #Rugby #GreatestRivalry
New Zealand flex in Eden Park. Can’t give All Blacks that much possession/turnovers. Tough end to a LONG season. #NZLvIRE
Ireland’s 12th & last game of the season. Farrell’s consistency of selection is interesting/(& prop injury issues) when you look at the 12 games. #NZLvIRE READ MORE HERE: thecurrency.news/articles/233...
Read New Zealand v Ireland Preview: how would you rank Ireland’s season? A win in Eden Park? #NZLvIRE thecurrency.news/articles/233...
New Zealand v Ireland Preview: #NEWvIRE #NZLvIRE Is it Best Ball Carries/Defenders beaten v Best 22m Entries/lowest turnovers conceded? or Savea v Conan ? or Worst Lineout v 2nd worst Lineout ? #NationsChampionship
New Zealand Attack (what the Ireland Defence will face) - Some good development in All Blacks attack. like how they get 10 & 12 axis going . 15 controlling the shortside. #RugbyAnalysis #NZLvITA
Great test match - #RSAvSCO #RugbyAnalysis - those failures to convert those 22m entries will haunt Scotland.
Some 2nd half performance for France against very tired Australia. France win 42-26. #AUSvFRA #RugbyAnalysis
a sloppy performance but a BP win & 4 new caps. #JAPvIRE #NationsChampionship #RugbyAnalysis
ROG to Leinster ? South Africa stealing Englands secrets, Aus v Ireland review & lineout issues & Japan preview - if you fancy a listen - podcasts.apple.com/ie/podcast/t...
South Africa’s 45-21 demolition of England at Ellis Park - 7 tries to 3. #RSAvENG
Ireland take it 31-33 in Sydney. A better 2nd half by Ireland. Australia wasteful at times. A few work ons but on to Japan. #AUSvIRE
2 man lineout - Still trying the work out what the Bulls were trying to do here. - Midfield Maul ?🤷♂️#URCGO #RugbyAnalysis
Leinster storm to their 10th title. Best performance of the season in a one sided final. #LEIvBUL #RugbyAnalysis
22m Attack - The most efficient 22m attack teams in URC (Bulls), Top14 (Stade Francais) and Prem (Northampton) ALL are in the finals of their league. - Toulouse with highest entries too. #RugbyAnalysis
Who takes the URC #LEIvBUL - Contrast in styles is interesting. Preview here: thecurrency.news/articles/230...
URC Final preview - Can Leinster get outside the Bulls Defence. Glasgow did it so well in that 1st half. well executed strikes #LEIvBUL #URCGO #RugbyAnalysis

Drop Goals - in the past it has won World Cups , but why is not something teams do anymore? #RugbyAnalysis. A breakdown from URC, PREM & Top14. interesting the amount of sides who havent scored one this season!
Another great @premrugby semi-final. @ExeterChiefs take it. great discipline & 22m attack. But why didn’t Bath take a drop goal at the end?? #RugbyAnalysis
A 12 try classic semi-final. Northampton take it. Linebreaks & offloads and Leicester D win it for Northampton. Great game. #NORvLEI #RugbyAnalysis
One for the Lineout Gurus - Which League has the best Lineouts ? (Clean wins a better stat IMO!) Leinster, Bristol and Stormers top of the charts. Top14 sides throw more to the tail than URC & Prem sides. #RugbyAnalysis
A deep dive into the domestic rugby comps. - Ball in Play time still <40mins. Average possessions is still 3 phases and 25.5secs (URC)/22.3secs (Top14). Teams only get 44 attack possessions/133 phases per game. #RugbyAnalysis
Another @URCOfficial Rugby final for @leinsterrugby - 20-11 win over the Stormers, whose discipline let them down in the final 15mins.
@BlueBullsRugby make the @URCOfficial final with a 22-21 win over Glasgow. Good 2nd half from Bulls , playing in the right parts of the field.
Glasgow attack from deep. Nice play this in their own 22m. Good workrate by wingers & half backs. #RugbyAnalysis #URCGO
Some nice detail around Connacht’s “exit sets”. Loads of planning around the chase. #RugbyAnalysis #URCGO
Another home win in the 1/4s of @URCOfficial - 59-10 to Leinster and James Lowe with his 100th appearance and moves on to 71 tries. - Semi-final next week v Stormers. #RugbyAnalysis
