Doris is the best player in the world ATM

unbelievable, great try

Doris wrapping up MOTM there

Byrne having his best game in green. That crossfield was great, and was firing players up around him. Feels like that try came from a buildup of that extra energy from him and Casey and intensity from players off the bench.

Can we also acknowledge just how good R.Byrne has been? Hasnt missed a beat since Sexton went off.

Larbre34 · 11-02-2023 05:01PM

I'm so happy France slipped three or four tackles there, it was beautiful.

Grand slam in the bag 😎

MadYaker · 11-02-2023 05:02PM

France can't keep up the intensity.

Relax. Three games to go. Favoured, yes. But anything can happen. England and Scotland both tough games.

England are completely rubbish. Scotland are Scotland.

Bad news for you Sexton gone after World Cup so these are our kickers

fullstop · 11-02-2023 05:04PM

That should be it. Waste a minute of two with pen and line out now

It’s not as easy as just saying a team are rubbish. On the day so much can make a difference between winning and losing.

Good now though

randomname2005 · 11-02-2023 05:07PM

Tons more arms than in the tackle on Lowe

Hugo Keenan my MOTM

CptMonkey · 11-02-2023 05:09PM

What a game.

fitz · 11-02-2023 05:11PM

Seriously impressive performance against a France side that would have beaten anyone else in the world today. Especially early substitutions and some key players missing.

Very, very satisfying win, and a cracking game.

waynescales1 · 11-02-2023 05:11PM

France were gassed after 60 minutes, great depth in the Ireland squad. Ireland much fitter than France.

11-02-2023 05:11PM

Wonderful performance 1-23.

Great couple of hours of rugby.

walshb · 11-02-2023 05:11PM

Great game. Ireland’s discipline and intensity the difference. Never allowed France in!!

He truly is.

And his conditioning is mind boggling for a human. Beyond all superlatives.

Joma4good · 11-02-2023 05:12PM

I think that’s the Best 80 min performance I’ve ever seen from Ireland, high quality game from both teams.

Faugheen · 11-02-2023 05:12PM

First time Andy Farrell has beaten France. Great stuff.

eggy81 · 11-02-2023 05:14PM

Doris was unbelievable particularly in the last 3rd of the game. Ireland look in great shape for the rest of the year. Squad is brimming with ability.

stephen_n · 11-02-2023 05:16PM

Well that was really enjoyable.

Can’t wait to see what TRC10 finds to complain about.

seagulls will be quiet today.

Porter 0 penalties today?

sydthebeat · 11-02-2023 05:16PM

Best game of Rugby I've seen in absolute years.

Stheno · 11-02-2023 05:17PM

Superb game

OldRio · 11-02-2023 05:20PM

Utterly breathtaking. Two marvellous sides. Rugby the biggest winner.

I need a drink.

StevenToast · 11-02-2023 05:21PM

I said a few days ago Ireland would win comfortably....

So did awec I believe....

Ireland were not troubled at all in the 2nd half....made France look very ordinary without key players...

Farrell has built great depth...huge credit must go to him...

I can now actually imagine Ireland navigating 7 games in a WC to go and win it......

Id start Ross Byrne and craig casey vs Italy....reward them.
