Ireland v England - Rugby Union

[Beach Hut]

Very poor 1st half for England

Agreed, back to old lack of discipline issue and a stupid tactic of licking the ball to their 22 in a restart.

But we are still in there. Can only get better.

 

[TomandJerry]

Looks like Irelands year

 

[SweatyMexican]

19-3

Good luck coming back from this.

Well, that's that then for the weekend, no way back for England from here if they carry on kicking the ball to the Oirish from midfield.

 

[Icy Gull]

England looking beaten

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

England are terrible. Clueless

 

[Barrel of Fun]

This is exceedingly frustrating. We have been a little reckless, but marginal calls are going the way of the Irish. We've not taken advantage of a few breaks and now we tail by 16. Argh!

 

[Hampster Gull]

The boys are taking a hell of a beating

Nope the Irish are better than us in all departments, getting mullered at the moment.

 

[Icy Gull]

Come on England make a game if it and score a try

 

[Icy Gull]

England now looking shocking

 

[TomandJerry]

Lovely use of the head tackle there!

Indeed

No disputing that, but we missed two good opportunities to break in the first half.

George Ford would score a 4 if we did match ratings.

What did Joubert blow up for then?...we haven't had the rub of the 'green' from the ref

Then it goes backwards and he blows for a knock on...t.....r

 

[Billy in Bristol]

Not a great day to be an England supporter - at least the football team aren't stinking out the place as the Cricket and now Rugby Team have!

Got to admit the way the rugby players treat the ref is amazing, no arguements

 

[Icy Gull]

Don't see the point of scrums these days seeing as the team putting in can feed ridiculously.

Very true!
