    I'm glad I have this information, not to watch it, just to fuel my bitchyness at not seeing the Irish one.

    the amount of luck the Welsh have is really beyond belief. Just watching this match, the babas has to go over the line 3 times before it was a try - when clearly the first try was not held up :eek:

    then you have the basis commentary - Jonathan Davies (need i say any more)

    How many times has Shane Williams played his "last ever game" now?

    He was laughing after the game saying this is his last one. Jesus the media are muppets, I can only imagine the amount of slagging he gets for that.

    There was no clear evidence that the first 'try' was a try. Video evidence was inconclusive and the way Alain Rolland asked the question left the video ref with no option but to declare that it wasn't a try.

    I really like jiffys commentary. I don't think he's hugely biased. Today when Wales were sin binned first he criticised Rolland for saying "this is your second time" saying the player should be going for that either way. Then after that he said Wales should have been binned again. He has no problem calling things against his guys. He's far more interesting and knowledgeable than any of the guys on Irish telly.

    Couldn't get to a pub to watch the game, couldn't get a stream and ended up listening to possibly the worst radio commentary ever from BBC Wales. Lost quite a bit on the game too. James Hook, I'll find out where you live. :(

    Interesting in a Babas match that 2 of the wingers - Isa Nacewa and Aled Brew (apart from his try at the end) - saw little of the ball.
