    I dont think the first Irish try should have been given. It should have been a line ball before he touched down.

    To be totally fair, although the play is called a line-out, within the play itself the actual action of throwing is referred to as the throw-in, while the line-out is the arrangement of players.

    Played rugby for 6 years and still would be a big leinster fan and to be honest if anyone told me to go up for the throw in, Id have laughed at them. The physical act may be called throwing in, but it is never ever in my experience called a throw in, ahead of a line out. (Although i think the whole argument is silly)

    Ireland lost to New Zealand in a Summer Tour match, they played well, I think, though
