Teams surely named shortly. ire to smash England like it’s no tomorrow. Revenge for Ross roasting last time when he lost out on 2019 WC place? Yeah !
Madness that it was a yellow on the pitch, it was a stone wall red, zero mitigation absolutely zero
But the process and back and forth is eliminated from TV time. Prevents Half's taking 50-60 to complete is a good thing
Earls will score. Seems written in the stars.
It was negative, but it was also bulldust.
We are clearly keeping our plays well hidden for the tournament. We are thumping England without even really trying. And while I acknowledge that this England team is poor to an historic level, we are well able for anyone.
Anyone.
And he's coming on!!! along with Earls!
Good man Earls. You deserve your 100th cap this evening.
Let's hope you have a good one.
He's not saying that. He's saying it's at least a yellow and is handing over the examination of it to someone else to get on with the game.
Brilliant from Bealham.
McCarthy pulling Earl back after he made the initial break and then slowing down the ball. Physically he’s something else
G'wan Finlay McCaw.
Excellent, excellent defence from the entire side and a great steal from Bealham.
England though. They had nothing in their locker other than bashing away and getting hit behind the gain line.
Although only at 12
Well said, I just hate the blatant negatively for no reason
Ross best play
That's a phenomenal counter ruck from Joe McCarthy. Melted the England possession and won us the ball back.
He's going to the World Cup.
Couple of meaty involvements already. Looks like a man amongst boys 😂
High tackle from Itoje against Keenan.
Without the red, Itoje probably would have seen yellow for that high tackle.
Bealham the most dramatically improved Irish player in last 3 years
Except the hair.
Lads, Ross Byrne is having a good game.
If ever a man deserved a try!
Hansen you beauty. Lovely score.
Good ball Byrne.
Freddie Steward is a bit susceptible to an aul side step.
Mack MOM
Ross is taking way too long to take the kicks through the post.
Are steward and ribband the only players in the pitch for england that have come through since the last RWC?
Ireland without playing great, so much better, not sure Ive seen a worse performance from England against us in all my years watching - given results today that bottom half of the draw is a joke , however they made it.
The game really showing up how critical the fitness of Hansen, Lowe and Keenan are. A notch down to the others.
