Are players incapable of putting the ball just in front of player these days? So poor, Wales were just as bad yesterday, too often players have to stop to catch ball, or where a pair of soft hands would do, they are throwing bullet passes across 3yards, so players can't take them!

This 6N has been shit hasn't it? Skills wise at least.

Wow, Ireland steal a try, fair play to them. Not what I was expecting at all, they must have made 3 times as many tackles as England? Fair way to go yet.

He's a really unlikeable chap Farrell isn't he?

Finally we have a successor to Rob Andrew.

I thought plisson's skills for the north try assist were amazing

I just add him to the long line of thoroughly unlikeable England Rugby players.

Sexton has a face made for punching

So far some amazing individual English performances but poor overall team performance. Ireland are making the best of their situation. Mcloskey looks great. Van der flier ok but no challenge to a fit o brien or o Donnell

lloyd

Billy V and McClouskey(sp?) have been evident, itoje has done some good things.

lloyd

Pressure tells, 4 lined up to walk in there. Ireland must be knackered.

I think that's probably it for Ireland now. We won't get the lead back. England subs just too strong.

Think you're right there unfortunately.

I wish Billy V had chosen Wales....Floodgates could open now.

This is going to be a very long 20 minutes.

lloyd

Ireland have done well the last 10minutes. Haskell is brainless isn't he?

i can't stand mike brown

lloyd

Reckless feet from Brown there.

eSully

If this is a try then game on

eSully

Unbelievable

lloyd

Harsh to not give the try but couldn't see it grounded....he must have got it down, then the scrum penalty fucks them.
