I’m fairness Murphy has been better

Shehal · 23-02-2024 08:53PM

Jesus Christ even Wales are getting penalties against us a scrum time, thats a new f*cking low.

Not a good sign when the Irish players couldn't catch a cold tonight never mind the ball.

johnh6767 · 23-02-2024 08:58PM

Uncomfortable if England put up a truck load against these guys

theVersatile · 23-02-2024 08:59PM

Tracey was clean through for a try if it Coffee passed it inside off that lineout move.

Not a night for it.

better , but want to up performance before England, Wales are poor

Wouldnt be so negative and they should pull clear now with that score on half time

23-02-2024 09:06PM

We'll need gleeson vs england but its def not impossible.

23-02-2024 09:08PM

Lots of errors but we're clearly on top. Solid defense and some good moments in attack when we were patient with the ball. Hugh Gavin got into the game nicely by the end of the half.

Wales discipline is really hurting them. Between the yellow card and all the neck rolls we've gotten easy access to the game.

Paul Smeenus · 23-02-2024 09:13PM

Agreed. McLoughlin has been markedly better in defence. Walker looks like a tough nut. Edogbo scored a pure-strength try, but has been AWOL otherwise. Hope and O'Connell have gone well.

We keep fluffing passes and the high ball.

Dubinusa · 23-02-2024 09:17PM

"Team of us"! Where scrummaging is optional!

Shehal · 23-02-2024 09:20PM

Concentration from the Irish players is still in the pits it seems :/

johnh6767 · 23-02-2024 09:22PM

O’Connell & Gavin / Edogbo leading , change at half backs again may inject much needed pace

johnh6767 · 23-02-2024 09:23PM

Walker standing up

johnh6767 · 23-02-2024 09:24PM

And Murphy a golden boot ticking up points

Paul Smeenus · 23-02-2024 09:29PM

Welsh backs look notably more dangerous than ours.

theVersatile · 23-02-2024 09:30PM

17 Wales looks like a powerful unit.

Some boot from O'Connor

Paul Smeenus · 23-02-2024 09:30PM

Fantastic kick from O'Connor - unlucky.

That's because theirs arent dropping the ball every 2 seconds...

Shehal · 23-02-2024 09:34PM

Was only a matter of time before they punished us for our sloppiness.

Paul Smeenus · 23-02-2024 09:34PM

Deserved try

Shehal · 23-02-2024 09:43PM

Finally a good Irish scrum!

Paul Smeenus · 23-02-2024 09:44PM

Our replacement props much better than theirs.

23-02-2024 09:53PM

I like Usanov, Walker and Calvey. Our front row next year could be pretty great after they have another year to develop.

Lost Ormond · 23-02-2024 09:56PM

All too easy now.

Fantastic finish by ben o connor

Dick phelan · 23-02-2024 09:56PM

Sad to see the state of Welsh Rugby. Not good for the overall game.

Shehal · 23-02-2024 09:56PM

That's what they can do when they dont drop the ball every attack, beautiful!

cson · 23-02-2024 09:56PM

Well no need to look too hard for the heir to Hugo Keenan.

What a player Ben O'Connor looks like.

theVersatile · 23-02-2024 09:57PM

That was serious pace to get in support from O'Connor. Still raw in places but a really high upside player.

johnh6767 · 23-02-2024 10:00PM

Agree O’Connor has been fantastic , and O’Connell , score defies the performance

Shehal · 23-02-2024 10:01PM

The score is impressive considering England only won by 21.
