    Hope to see at least 100 points today.

    How many games are you going to watch?

    Rolling at almost a point a minute at this stage. Really impressive opening quarter.

    Good man Bundee. He's been trying a variety of moves and passes and a good few haven't come off for him. Getting a try now is ideal because he'll keep the tempo and creativity up and we may see some special rugby at this level.

    Just this one.

    It’s not perfectly clinical fromIreland, but it’s working, even if a granny wobbling back and forth could make a good job of getting through the Italian line. The question is if we can execute a running game against a higher quality team.

    Still good to watch though.

    POM is building a nice blooper reel in this 6n.

    Good to see them confident enough in Porter to go for a scrum here.

    Poor decision from Johnny

    That was a bit rubbish.

    Murray in the lineout!

    Italy will get a yellow soon if they don't stop messing


  • Registered Users Posts: 589 ✭✭✭baas baa


    What a waste


  • Registered Users Posts: 67,064 ✭✭✭✭FrancieBrady


    Bit clueless there Ireland


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,599 ✭✭✭ScrubsfanChris


    Sexton, what a waste


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,322 ✭✭✭dublinman1990


    This is great stuff from our men in green. The last half an hour for Ireland has been brilliant. However; does Italy have a similar plan in place in what they tried to do against England in Rome last week? I don't want Ireland to be too complacent with the lead they have against O'Shea's men.

    Next one I'd say, really racking up the penalties

    italy getting tackled behind the gain line every phase. they are woeful.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,119 ✭✭✭Jack Kanoff


    Stockdale was a bit stupid there!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,745 ✭✭✭accensi0n


    Bloody waste


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,360 ✭✭✭NollagShona


    Ref seems very harsh on ITA


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,149 ✭✭✭mangobob


    That was pretty poor. How many penalties did we get there and could do nothing with them. Sloppy.


  • Registered Users Posts: 24,183 ✭✭✭✭Buer


    We are incredibly impatient in our desire to score the 4th try. Three different times our attack broke down due to rash decisions from experienced guys like Sexton and Earls.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,209 ✭✭✭ongarite


    Ouch!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,745 ✭✭✭accensi0n


    Kearney really should have passed that.

    they kept England sight for a good part of the game. Whatever plan Italy had its out of the window after that start.
