    Sexton scapegoat for this loss unfortunately

    Another French player with his head in his knee :)

    Donnacha Ryan's leadership is massively missed in situations like this.

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

    And if a pass is marginally forward (for example, the French try) it's deemed level.

    We're being beaten by a very poor team at the moment.

    Very very disappointing.

    How?

    We had full control of that game.

    Because they never gave up, kept it a going concern and we started to make errors. They fully deserve their lead.

    What an ugly performance, you just knew it was coming. Sickening.

    Don't know which is worse looking or listening to luke

    Eddie Jones will be a happy man watching this. It's between England and Wales for the championship.

    If we lose in this manner I think Schmidt has to go this year. Brilliant coach but our play isn't progressing.

    Joe simply must go after this campaign. A man who has run out of ideas a long time ago

    That's not a HIA.

    Rightly so. Missed a simple crucial kick to put them away.

    We never looked liked scoring a try. France were always going to win this, they easily contained us. I was just waiting for the sucker punch to happen.

    Sexton "I'm the captain" 😂


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,510 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    We just haven't got the wingers or the full back that the rest of this team deserves.
    Until we find those three players we are going to struggle against too level opposition.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,790 ✭✭✭✭Burkie1203


    This is BS


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 643 ✭✭✭duskyjoe


    We never really broke their lines once and yes who is this guy stockdale? Terrible. Goodbye
    Championship- massive changes next time


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,150 ✭✭✭✭LuckyGent88


    How is that for a hia. That’s some bollix


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,728 ✭✭✭Former Former


    Lads.

    Can you all stop revelling in it when your team is losing.

    It's pathetic.

    You're no fans of Ireland.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,042 ✭✭✭✭Beechwoodspark


    If we lose this lots of awkward questions will have to be asked.

    Some shocking calls from Nigel Owens


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,997 ✭✭✭✭bilston


    What a load of s****?

    Is his brain in his fecking knee?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,745 ✭✭✭laugh


    Two wrong HIA's in one game?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,885 ✭✭✭dublinman1990


    We need to score something in 4 and a half minutes to win it?

    France look like they will be the winners of this contest. Ireland are nowhere near going to win this game.

    He'll be here till the world cup but I'll tend to agree. No evolution in the 6N over the last three seasons. The faces have changed but we're incapable of playing anything like decent rugby away from home.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,244 ✭✭✭✭Guy:Incognito


    3 letters to let you do what you like " H.I.A"




  • I hope joe raises serious questions about Nigel here he's had a disaster of a game


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,612 ✭✭✭✭Clegg


    I'm shocked.

    We should be winning by at least 10. I've no reasons for why we're not.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,724 ✭✭✭✭MJohnston


    This HIA stuff is a disgrace

    95% tackle success rate for France, that’s unreal.
