    Great start for Ireland, Russian heads might drop now after that start and this mornings thumping.

    Thought Uruguay were robbed. Ref seemed to give everything to Germany. Couple of times Uruguay got over the ruck and it looked perfect execution ad the ref gave a penalty to the Germans. He missed the knock on at the end as well.

    Russia very weak from the kick offs. Germany much better defensively but our pace should be too much for them.

    They looked wrecked after the last game so hopefully that carries through a bit

    Well done Ireland. Another step forward, that was a show! Semi will be a brand new day. Fresh legs. Going to be tough but if we come out of the blocks like that and maintain that intensity and pace we will take some stopping!

    The likes of Conroy will get the plaudits but Harry McNulty is something else. Incredible player.

    Can’t believe the Germans went for a drop goal penalty when 10-5 up which they missed. Another try there and curtains. Conroy a great finisher but the tackling is a bit iffy!!

    Great win.

    Yes those 2 conversions were unreal. 5-10 down I though we were sussed at the breakdown. McNulty again winning the restart and giving the platform. Just 1 more win needed...

    Come on Hong Kong now!

    Heat and humidity the biggest worry. They wilted badly against Uruguay after looking well on top. The longer final (2 x 10) will be a rest.

    Fantastic display from the lads, considering where they were 3 years ago playing in Europe B, to now be a core side in the World Series is absolutely immense, and a massive achievement for not only the players but for the coaching staff and the IRFU for putting the correct structures in place.

    Excellent, made it look routine. A black mark in Irish rugby corrected as regards our absence from the 7s circuit.

    Massive pressure off them now in terms of the 7s series, once they're in they'll be far too good to have to worry about relegation, they should realistically aim for mid table next year and build from there.

    Olympic qualification the next big goal presumably?

    Superb achievement for that group of players. One hell of a journey. Good news for the Leavy family this week after that last try assist from Adam.

    Roll on 2020
