Twice even with less than two mins left.
The lad on Virgin saying "that win changes the complexion of Ireland's campaign massively".
Feck off

Why?
That's more box kicks that Park played in one game than over the rest of his career. If your going to play that type of game then at least pick the players for it.
I thought "here comes 7 or 8 short/safe recycle phases and run the clock". Odd
It was very physical that match

Well he was referring specifically to the table vs how it would have been after another loss.
I was making a joke as obviously I don't want us to get hammered by England.
Apparently it wasn't very funny.
Yeah but it doesn't really at all though. Anyone can see that.
Winning was the worst thing possible if you are in the Farrell out group, up to 2nd and we have to hope for England to give the IRFU an eye opener, it would be interesting to see the continuous tv figures as I imagine the drop off would be huge because of the sheer boredom and people like me who are just uninterested in watching this brand of rugby, when we know the players are there to play a much more expensive brand of rugby.We're second.
We'd have been 5th if we lost
We're second.

We won't be for long. We were very poor today and the table right now doesn't reflect that.
Ringtone and Ryan out for the England match.
Yep, pretty big news. Probably should have been giving someone else a go in dead rubbers like the match against Italy, eh?

He will be a loss.
Can we send Farrell with him when he goes?
Only turning 31, I've just read. Surprising I suppose that he's quitting the club game too.
I wonder with the current state of the national team of we'll see a few more retirements soon. Some disappointing days on the horizon for the foreseeable future I'd say and a very hard grind to improve the situation.
Transition it is which is disappointing given we are still transitioning from Joes side into ....well what I dont know.
Could be too much to ask to be ready for 2023
Sadly, the only building for the future at the moment seems accidental, grudgingly done. We could have stuck with younger players against Scotland, but instead reinstalled the old guard who were for fit again. Dropping Casey for Murray and then leaving both him and Burns on the bench for 80mins was so pointless.
Lowe and JGP lose out. Stockdale and Murray back in.
Will Connors is a massive loss for us. He was the key player to counter their powerful carriers. His Lydiate style chop tackle is the perfect foil to guys like Billy V. I'm worried that a backrow with Van der Flier and Conan is going to be smashed physically in this one.
I'd have been tempted do go with Baird or Dillane in the second row and then Stander, Beirne and one of the two lads in the backrow. Delighted for Killer to get his chance and the backline he's picked is the right one under the circumstances.

6N Round 5
Last round of the 6N, kind of. Has there been any word on a rescheduled Scotland France match?
Think I'll skip the first game today unless Italy find some form from somewhere. Seems highly unlikely.

If I were to take a guess, France vs Scotland will take place next weekend.
Yep, skipping the first game. Massive battle of the disappointments in the middle one then donning my Beret and yelling “Allez le blues!!” for the rest of the dayLast round of the 6N, kind of. Has there been any word on a rescheduled Scotland France match?

Friday 26th March
Six Nations 2021: France v Scotland rescheduled for 26 March
I should probably figure out a way to watch these matches.
Cheers!
Deleted . Delete your post too
We probably shouldn't be promoting that. Maybe consider PMing info like that
Done, thanks.
Just put some cans of Guinness in the fridge for this evening. As much as I'm frustrated by Farrell, I know I'll be totally up for this come 4pm.
Feck Farrell, cmon Ireland!!
Of course when I've decided not to watch it, it seems like it's going to be really competitive
I'm reeled in now.

I got flashbacks of getting run over with a hit like this when I played as a teenager... I didn't know where I was for a good few mins after it
24-10 to Scotland now, feeling cheated by the Italians giving me early optimism.

Really looking forward to tonight. Whatever the result the match could be something special hopefully.
Italian just yellow carded for lifting and dropping player... says sorry as goes off and two players involved touch hands, say no worries.
Love both sports but the difference between rugby and football is amazing

Me too. 8 cans.
I'll need 12
Just opened my first one here, cmon Ireland.
It's totally messed up but when I see Sexton I think about concussions.
Hard not to. Didn't that French doctor make it into a story again just a few weeks ago? He apologized etc but it's definitely associated with Sexton.
