eek

I would say though that IMO the Irish subs should be carded there - on the field of play. I don't like it <shakes fist at cloud>

True, but they weren't interfering with play.

The only question now is by how many points will Ireland win

With you there.

Wales have had a couple of nice breaks to get close to the Irish line, but then get a bit ‘spent it before they’ve earned it’ when it comes to actually scoring.
Hopefully they’ll find a bit of composure and discipline to make a game of it.
Ireland looking very efficient. Impressive.

Wales making Ireland look better than they are. Irish are playing well, but the score reflects the Welsh lack of discipline as much as the Irish outplayed them. Great intercepted try though.

I knew it was going to be bad, but not this bad.

Ireland are - as they should be - paying well and dictating the game.

Wales - in spite of their collective years playing together - look like they’ve never met each other before the game started.

Dire.

Is the second half going to be more competitive? Please!

First four minutes would suggest so.

I think Wales have actually started to play rugby. They were flattering Ireland in the first half.

Our error count has been ridiculous. Not all doom and gloom though.

Thought for a while that Ireland may not get bonus point in the end but when the yellow card was given it was only time.

Interesting WG taking a positive spin on this. That’s his job, of course, but I can’t help but think this is a repeat of the downwards period experienced after the golden generation in the 70s.

I just want some signs of initiative.

Just waiting for the game to start. At the moment, I'm watching a tribute program to Finn Russell...

Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.

Not seeing a single, shiny, new thing in any aspect of England play yet.

Neither England or Scotland would stand a chance versus Ireland on the basis of this opening.
