    This isn't Wales performing, its us making avoidable mistakes.

    The cost of the errors from Ireland on the game are huge, the red card, Ringrose for the try, tackling in the air putting us back in our 22, winning it and kicking it out on the full setting Wales up for the second try. And the amount of high tackles

    It’s absolutely awful.

    Jaysus that's shocking from Earl's. He's there in part for his experience.

    Have to say that law is news to me. When did it change?

    Valiant effort by Furlong.

    This is an incredibly poor second half. Falling over themselves to mess up.

    What was Lowe doing?

    It really was a superb effort once he saw the threat he gave everything he had to get across......just not enough.

    It was just as poor a decision from Murray after we won that lineout btw. We had turnover ball and an entire open side with backs lined up.

    He passed to the only blind side player.

    You seem to complain about everything and everyone

    Lowe not too hectic in defence either. Both tries scored in his corner and he was looking on at both. Forwards were closest to the man who scored on both occasions

    Earl's and Murray the 16th and 17th men for Wales the last ten minutes.

    We need to be perfect from here out and I don't see it now.

    Nothing to blame but themselves for this, completely took their foot off Wales’ throat and are paying the price.

    Wales haven't had to do anything to earn those scores, entirely built upon poor decisions by us. Maddening
