    Murphy is a fantastic kicker , his defence is weak , but he is putting up the points all the same

    French 9’s are so special and enjoyable to watch

    Two bad underthrows in the last two lineouts for Sheahan. Looks very lively around the pitch though!

    Gavin and Gleeson will be huge for us this year.

    McLoughlin really doesn't seem to have the top two inches

    Poor by our 14. We had advantage

    Okay France got that 3 points free of charge from the ref, hopefully they dont complain if they go on to lose the game.

    TMO better act quickly to find a way to disallow the Irish try!

    Great piece of opportunism from Murphy and then good tracking from Treacy to finish.

    Two bonus point victories over France in 24 hours. Utterly brilliant.

    Well done Ireland. What a performance, and a much stiffer test than what the senior team faced last night.

    Confirm's Ireland's status as the dominant force in NH rugby!

    Great result! Lots of quality moments. I would say that was deserved. Brilliant match.

    The future of Rugby in Ireland is very bright. 3 quality under 20 teams in a row will surely deliver 3 or 4 gems. Gleeson is some player.

    Didn't think anything would top last night. That was absolutely 💯 great! Match of the weekend

    There's been a massive improvement in Ireland's coaching set up in the last 10 years. Started with Carolan in 2015-16 and has continued since then.

    We've been producing great players for years, but the coaching staff weren't always there to get the best out of them. Under Carolan and now Murphy we're really pushing on as a formidable U20 set up.

    So we could be looking at a double double (senior and U20 GS two years in a row). Would be an incredible achievement.

    The Perfect Slam is beyond the U20s though (yes I want to make that a thing!).

    I thought Boyd looked a good bit more steady than Sparrow although i'm not sure why he's at THP. Is there any chance Deay could be back soon?

    Thought the pack in general was great. Gleeson and Gavin were absolutely unreal. Sheahan had a very solid game as well and must be a cert for Munster academy.

    I think Murphy deserves to get a good appointment after his reign is over with the 20's..
