That is excellent from Ireland. Lovely hands, fast rugby, great accuracy. Great try.
 
I literally just said the same thing to a mate of mine.

We're gonna have to weather a storm after halftime I'd say.

Odds on to do it now though. That's a very decent lead.

Completely admit that I did not expect this. England have been poor and don't seem up for it.

Our discipline hasn't been perfect, but it's better than previous rounds and we haven't done anything brainless so far. The closest to a disaster was the kick that Murray let bounce where Aki saved the day.
 
Not sure if it's too easy and simple to suggest that England are tired here, but they are nowhere near it. Very lethargic and subdued. Ireland have been excellent to be fair, which obviously contributes to England's complete no-show
 
They've been decent. Murray had that one flub letting the kick bounce that could have easily gone wrong.

“Decent” is harsh. Sexton’s been excellent. Murray made that one bad mistake but hasn’t put a foot wrong otherwise.

It is a pity that we don’t have anyone banging on the door to take their place. On a day like today it brings it home what a big ask that is.

I agree with you that it'd be a leap of faith at 10, but we 100% have very good players at 9 that we should be giving experience to.
 
Hopefully, Wales can do it later, but I still think France are huge favorites. They were excellent against England last week and if they play anywhere near that they should easily beat Wales. Although I think that may have been said a few times this tournament already :lol:
 
Poor discipline as usual from England. Doesn’t reflect well on Jones at all.
