    Forgot all about it being Gatland's last game in Cardiff... Wales'll be up for this.

    Hoping for a good showing from Marmion and Farrell today, I think they could push for a starting berth.

    I think Farrell is already on the plane myself.
    Marmion could be pushing for a starting spot imo.

    Wales +2 at 10/11 is free money.

    Romain Poite is the ref today.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 9,298 ✭✭✭dublinman1990


    We have a turnover within the 1st 2 minutes. We are doing OK aren't we?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,201 ✭✭✭✭bilston


    Bright start.

    Some nice touches for Carty and Addison and a good turnover from Stockdale.

    For 2 minutes 30 seconds, rugbypass had no commentary feed. Best 2 and half mins I've ever watched.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,241 ✭✭✭Sanjuro


    Do we often see Nucifora in the coaches box?

    Poor old Poite still hasn't figured out what to do with scrums other than pretend it's all grand.

    Decent start by Ireland


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,477 ✭✭✭kuang1


    Henderson wrapped up brilliantly there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,201 ✭✭✭✭bilston


    Good work by Henderson and Conan on the turnover


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,440 ✭✭✭jammiedodgers


    Ugh, stop laughing at everything Jamie Heaslip


  • Site Banned Posts: 12,341 ✭✭✭✭Faugheen


    Good start for Conan. Him and Henderson did well there.

    No idea how we didn’t concede a penalty from that previous scrum though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,477 ✭✭✭kuang1


    We're already five times sparkier than last week.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,201 ✭✭✭✭bilston


    Ireland look quite slick, nice pop inside from Carty to Stockdale.

    Important kick for Carty to settle and continue a very impressive start from him


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 9,298 ✭✭✭dublinman1990


    Ireland are going for the 3 at the posts. This is a very encouraging 8 minutes from Ireland.


  • Site Banned Posts: 12,341 ✭✭✭✭Faugheen


    Look how much better we can do when you get the players to catch the ball on the run.

    Yeah, really nice start by Carty


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,078 ✭✭✭✭vienne86


    Lovely start. Ireland looking SO much better than last week.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,089 ✭✭✭Happy4all


    Positive start


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,201 ✭✭✭✭bilston


    Good defensive set by Ireland.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,599 ✭✭✭ScrubsfanChris


    Very subdued atmosphere especially by Cardiff standards....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,477 ✭✭✭kuang1


    POM very fast off the mark in defence there. Out to prove a point methinks.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,300 ✭✭✭✭razorblunt


    Nice start by Addison and Carty.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,201 ✭✭✭✭bilston


    Aki caught in two minds there. The pass was a bit behind him but Aki probably could have recovered the situation.

    Set up was decent though.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,752 ✭✭✭✭Shefwedfan


    The combinations in midfield look good.....more attacking.....

    Still some messy errors

    Looked like a Welsh hand knocked that out of Akis hand ..
