    With any luck we’ll never see him in green again.

    Didn't Barnes just say that it was perfectly fine when play was live?

    Not disputing the red though, just disappointed that Barnes didn't call that live.

    Might not haven seen it from the 'right' angle, but it was fairly obvious when watching it live.

    Nobody socially distancing.
    Can't they play by staying 2m apart????
    Is it an essential trip to play rugby????

    Incredibly scummy there, what a liability he has become. Get rid.

    The more I see of Keenan at this level the better he looks. He's really growing into the role.

    Welsh tails are up now. They know this is theirs for the taking now.

    Our defensive lineout is excellent at least. That's two steals now.

    What was the last red card for Ireland? I can only remember Stander in South Africa in 2016.

    Aki at the World Cup.

    Why when we play Wales away do Ireland always forget to pack their brain? Absolute idiocy that red.

    Hes young, too many past it in this 23, but others seen as not good enough, lack of vision,

    Shouldn't they be wearing masks and gloves and sanitizing the ball between each pass????

    Utterly braindead from media darling POM.

    Dont think he was, was he ? Just to a certain faction of Munster supporter. Anyway, he is done at this stage.
    Raging he has spolt the match for us now. With Enland losing, it made the championship very interesting, with us probably able to lose one of England or France game and it still be interesting. But that it now. Playing for 4th position in the 6N. Gutted.

    That's a red for POM. He's been sent off already for that this season.

    He needs dropped entirely from the squad for this. Hasn't learned from his mistakes and cost us the game.

    Could be the end of him for a while. He's just put Farrell under big pressure assuming Wales put us away. He’ll cop a hefty ban too. Unforgivable considering he’s done it already this season.

    There will be an excuse now,

    Like you say with 15 it didn't look good. Flat footed and slow in most aspects.

    Moronic. Still won't see him dropped. We look crap. Nothing has changed.

    We were actually playing well with 15 men
