    Keenan looked very upset. Bad luck fella.

    Who was 24th man?

    Looks like a last minute pull out for Keenan as well. Video of him hugging POM looking pretty upset about it.

    Shite on a stick

    Larmour straight in is a big call. He's not like for like with anyone, very much his own type of player. He'll be peppered by Russell.

    Not an ideal situation for Larmour either. Wasn't expecting to be involved in the 23 at all. Played a bit of fullback this season, but still a fat better wing.

    His weakness is under the high ball so expect Scotland to target him something fierce.

    Larmour will be fine, he's a quality player.

    That’s a big loss for Ireland, Scots will hammered balls down at Larmour at every chance today. Jordan is always suspect under the high ball. Hopefully he plays out of his skin today.

    Too late for today but with Keenan not available I'd have Haley as his cover, 2nd best fullback in the country.

    Haley might have been unlucky to have been out injury for so long in the lead up to this championship but for me, he's the ideal cover for Keenan.

    Yeah, agree with this. Possibly too late and possibly not versatile enough as I haven't seen Haley play wing (or maybe just noticed him more at FB)

    Why are Scotland lining up so far far away from the Irish players and referees?

    POM isnt in tears for nothing, that is as good an indication as any that this is it for him, hopefully we send him out on a high!

    Not a great start, look aimless and no tactics again.

    Crowd is silent once again. Going for a championship need the crowd helping them.
