    Hoping for a good showing from Marmion and Farrell today, I think they could push for a starting berth.

    I think Farrell is already on the plane myself.
    Marmion could be pushing for a starting spot imo.

    We have a turnover within the 1st 2 minutes. We are doing OK aren't we?

    Bright start.

    Some nice touches for Carty and Addison and a good turnover from Stockdale.

    For 2 minutes 30 seconds, rugbypass had no commentary feed. Best 2 and half mins I've ever watched.

    Do we often see Nucifora in the coaches box?

    Poor old Poite still hasn't figured out what to do with scrums other than pretend it's all grand.

    Good start for Conan. Him and Henderson did well there.

    No idea how we didn’t concede a penalty from that previous scrum though.

    Ireland look quite slick, nice pop inside from Carty to Stockdale.

    Important kick for Carty to settle and continue a very impressive start from him

    Ireland are going for the 3 at the posts. This is a very encouraging 8 minutes from Ireland.

    Look how much better we can do when you get the players to catch the ball on the run.

    POM very fast off the mark in defence there. Out to prove a point methinks.

    Aki caught in two minds there. The pass was a bit behind him but Aki probably could have recovered the situation.

    Set up was decent though.

    The combinations in midfield look good.....more attacking.....

    Still some messy errors
