Wales 3 Ireland 15 after 35 minutes. Two tries to Stockdale. Ireland on the cusp of topping the world rankings.
Bloody handing it to the Irish. Literally.
Terrible ball retention and aimless kicking.

All hail our new overlords New Zealand!

If Ireland had anything about them they should have put 50 on us
I'd be very worried if I was SchmidtI.
I'm really worried about our 'easier' matches.
Both Fiji and Georgia would have beaten us today

Yeah the halftime score line was flattering to Ireland basically due to shinkler brain fart.
Ireland back row is just nothing at the moment. All anonymous again.
Next week will be interesting again.

Despite the score line Georgia not too bad. Struggle in defence against the Scottish backs but they are giving a good account of themselves.

Really?
Haven't seen it, but that looks like a thumping against an average Scottish side.

Only watched 2nd half. Often Georgia would dominate for large periods then it would pop down to the Georgian 22 and Scotland would carve out a try.
I think Fiji will beat Georgia and they’ll finish 4thin their pool.

Can someone explain to me, using small words because i am a bit dim, how Devin Toner escaped any sanction at all for something that looked very much like what Red Barrett did to get a red card and 3 weeks?

Probably because he isn't in the RWC squad? His spot taken by some South African who won a potatoe eating contest.
