    We're just so easy to beat out wide!

    Once again Stander is passing more than the 7

    Bad kick from sexton started that scotish counter.

    We are not controlling the game like we should.

    Think we've taken off the wrong backrower

    Is playing 'silent' advantage a thing now. That reminds me of Owens decision on Launchbury two weeks ago.

    Sexton should be kicking the corners, not garryowens

    Healy was obviously told to empty the tank, which he did in style.

    Commentary gushing over him but 13 metres from 10 carries not exactly outstanding. He just goes straight and hard every time with no footwork at all which makes him reasonably easy to stop. One or two highlight reel moments blowing a scrum half out of the way doesn't change that. Compare it to Leavy and Furlong who are always side stepping and gaining ground and momentum.

    And I say this as someone who has always liked Healy.

    Anyone hear the Scottish player saying “let’s go cheese let’s go cheese” to Ryan at last ruck there. Serves him right.

    Barnes has been doing that a lot this week, taking an age to blow the whistle for obvious infringements. It's unclear whether he's trying to let play continue or is waiting for assistant ref confirmation.

    Sexton was already placing the ball before he even hit the floor. Absolute class

    There's no way Kearney is passing that with any sort of accuracy. Maitland did very well

    Which time? Good few at this stage. Few lads with a bit of blinkers but were 1 try away from a bp so I'm not overly worried yet.

    Earls can't buy a pass today, he could have a couple of tries. Jack McGrath immense since he came on, improvement on Healy

    Wouldn’t agree with that, think his playmaking has been very good even I he has overcooked a few kicks

    I think hes trying to give them as much advantage as he can but it’s bloody confusing for all concerned

    Is it the angle of the camera or do a lot of the line outs look squint?

    To be fair, majority of his kicks have been poor today, good other than that
