Bollox. Seriously WTF Ireland.

SlickRic · 03-02-2018 07:30PM

Forward pass.

We deserve to be behind, but that's forward.

its_phil · 03-02-2018 07:30PM

Not good from Sexton and Stockdale there

FCIM · 03-02-2018 07:30PM

What a try!

Haven't even looked capable of scoring a try. Only one winner here.

Talk about tempting fate. That's what happens when you don't put teams away.

Game is perfectly set up for zebo to come on, oh no wait, thanks Joe

6 nations already over. If only Sexton would get the kicks that puts us multiple scores ahead

Yeah, massive miss that was. He seemed to break his routine on that kick as well

Oh dear

Squidgy Black · 03-02-2018 07:31PM

So much for all the talk of there being no way France could even come close to winning this and how we were going to demolish them.

We've been dismal in attack, never got more than a couple of phases together.

We either need a miracle or French indiscipline to win this.

A-Train · 03-02-2018 07:31PM

Terrible coming a mile away

03-02-2018 07:31PM

Wobbles everywhere

Strumms · 03-02-2018 07:31PM

Jesus ****ing Christ this is self destruction

Losty Dublin · 03-02-2018 07:31PM

First time this half that they've had a bit to run at up but what a run. Kearney was only getting back into his space and his wingers were away with the fairies. That said it was a fantastic try, one of the best you'll see all season.

Too Tough To Die · 03-02-2018 07:31PM

And that's the end of that. Absolute disgrace.

Somedaythefire · 03-02-2018 07:32PM

I can't see what Stockdale has done to deserve playing today.

SlickRic · 03-02-2018 07:32PM

And that was backwards.

Unbelievable.

FCIM · 03-02-2018 07:32PM

Ireland have shocked me in how bad they've been. France haven't even been anything approaching good tbh.

munsterlegend · 03-02-2018 07:32PM

We are a bore fest to watch. Like Murray takes about a minute to pass the ball when we get over the game line.

03-02-2018 07:32PM

curtains

Clegg · 03-02-2018 07:32PM

How?

We had full control of that game.

03-02-2018 07:32PM

Not a knock on

Unbelievable.

It's turned into rugby league the last few years. Any loss of control is called a knock on, unless it goes straight back.

Need the ball first!
