@pakman That is my only (v slight) concern. A bit lightweight at lock but with Launchbury out it is what it is. It'll be interesting to see the two team mates, Jonny & Jonny go up against each other.

You were right. Johnny Gray was best lock on day.

Imagine what an in form All Blacks would do to this England.

I didn’t count one set of phases or even an individual play that England looked remotely likely to score a try.

And if the Scottish 1st 5 didn’t kick front foot ball away so often, the Scots could’ve put even more pressure on.

Well yeah but would you pick any English in a combined side?

World's best 10 on bench?

[MiketheSnow]

All endeavour and zero ambition so far.

Lydiate off injured, Navidi on.

O'Mahoney with a cheap shot on the prone and trapped Francis.

Red card

Wales 3-0 Ireland
15 mins

@MiketheSnow

Can't disagree with the Red.

But think we need to look at ways to ensure a Red doesn't bugger the whole game up.

[Victor Meldrew]

Is it just me or is this a shit game?

[sparky]

Total filth from Peter O'Mahony, deserved red card. Not an easy watch this one. Both sides look a bit shit.

[sparky]

Tadhg Beirne for Ireland. 13-6.

[Bones]

Wales endeavour has been shelved since the red, they should be ashamed. They should be taking an even quicker game to Ireland with Navidi on.

Sexton still an egg, clear high tackle and he yells at the ref as the arm goes out for advantage.

[MiketheSnow]

Shit from Wales

Adrift

[MiketheSnow]

We lose
Pivac can fuck off

It looks like the Wales forwards have been on the same lockdown fitness regime as Billy Vunipola. Unable to rise the tempo against 14. They ran out of puff at the end of that half and their defensive shape was awful.

Henderson for Ryan has really energised Irish go forward.

[Victor Meldrew]

Wales look worse than England yesterday.

Hope North's score wakes them up.

[Bones]

Change in halfback and waddaya know...

Is Williams the starting halfback? I think he rates Williams a bit too much.

[Bones]

Welsh backline really are good at whatever the opposite of creating space is.

[sparky]

Ireland's discipline is awful. Halfpenny with the kick. 21-13.

[sparky]

Sexton looks crooked.

Not Biggar’s best game.

Sexton looks crooked. Looks like his left knee has gone.

🤣

His left knee is a long way up his head.

Welsh forwards have been tackling machines.
