All Ireland - even with 14 men.
England giving away penalties almost every time they get possession. Another dumb penalty in front of their posts.

Do England have a forward leader?

Brilliant. England finally get a penalty, take the quick tap, spins a wide pass to Genge in the middle of the field, who takes it straight up the guts and is tackled by Curry before he hits the defence.
Ireland were in disarray, backpedaling and down to 14 men.
🤦

Sums them up perfectly - all their problems are in their heads. They have no ability to do anything other than go smash and go all disruptive

Greatness is high standards and consistency. Based on that, this is not a great England side.
Fair play too Ireland though, had a poor start but finished strongly.
Worst England performance since RWC2015, for me.
Shambolic, ill-disciplined, nil leadership and no rugby smarts whatsoever.

Looks like Maro Itoje has been captain since Owen Farrell went off.

Explains a few things.

Now Genge thinks it's tough to talk smack to Sexton and continue on even after the ref told him to calm down. What a mong.
Sexton has been great today. Really impressive performance.

He really is a dick.
That period just before Murray was binned sums up everything that’s wrong with England - man up with lots of space out wide to walk it in. Instead they slow it right down so they can pick and go straight into the teeth of the Irish forwards 😬
