    Larmour has played very intelligent rugby so far.

    Itoje is everywhere

    We're kicking quite a bit to beat England's fast up press. Not a bad tactic to be fair. England seem well up for the physical battle and getting the better of it so far.

    Murray playing badly.

    Looks like the same player in the Six Nations so far.

    I agree, and it's worrying.

    None of our ball carriers are coming at pace

    Yet. England working very hard, think we'll find more go forward as the game progresses.

    Cian Healy just absolutely blasted the ball up field.

    Kearney caught flat footed twice now.

    Interesting that Healy blocked that from an offside position but wasn't penalised. Is it because Youngs obviously played it off him?

    Murray's passes are fairly glacial at the moment.

    There was no ruck so Healy wasn’t actually offside

    Worryingly Ireland in bother with powerful quick off the line tackling teams.

    To counter that you need a slick, quick varied game. We don't have that last 7 mts. It starts with Murray.

    I thought that but I don't think he was offside.

    Stander nearly costing a try there.

    His inability to pass is why Conan should be starting these games.

    Yeah. Should have been offside but Owens felt the cynical play to deliberate manufacture a penalty negated the offside and played on.

    Murray just got speed bumped badly. He's still down.

    Conan offers far more, Stander has become a very limited player, sadly

    Should the game not have been stopped straight away there no?

    Ringrose is shook, has taken a few bangs and is standoffish in contact. Think he'll be off early and Murray looks like a HIA now too.
