Fantastic performance by Ireland. 20-10. NZ a bit shell-shocked and missing B Barrett second half.

Fantastic performance by Ireland. 20-10. NZ a bit shell-shocked and missing B Barrett second half.
20-17
The last 15 minutes should be epic!
how many times have new zealand got a break and then mucked up
and again, wtf is wrong with them today
and once more with such a stupid kick out to the wing that's easily intercepted
Who would bet against NZ winning 27-26?
well done ireland easily the far better side
not saw an error-strewn new zealand performance like that for more than a few decades
Great match in Dublin. Ireland must be favourites for the six nations if they play like that.
NZ under par but they can't win all the time. That would just get boring!
Not a rugby fan generally but was glued to that game in Dublin. Brilliant match
All Blacks have been away from home for a long time so that could explain their jaded performance yesterday.
Ireland are due to tour NZ in the near future I gather. No doubt retribution will be severely inflicted!
Fiji leading wales 13-7 after 25 mins then a fijian gets a red card for a silly 2nd tackle smashing his arm in to the welsh players head on the ground, he'd already made a great tackle then just crazyness with a needless 2nd hit, they were playing well and now play the remaining 55 mins with just 14
HT 14-13
14 players managing quite well at the moment, inc 10 mins with just 13, 23-14 Fiji
Fiji down to 13 again try wales, kick missed 23-19 fiji
try wales, kick missed 24-23
FT 38-23 Wales, Fiji get the credit imo playing nearly an hour with just 14 and and even down to just 13 twice
women
FT Scotland 36 Japan 12
Stuart Hogg becomes Scotland's top try scorer, 25th scored today, good Hibby too. 👏
That Pollard can't kick straight. S Africa could be ahead.
tough on the Australians against Wales, went ahead 28-26 on 78 mins but i just knew they would eventually give away a penalty after the restart FT 29-28 Wales against 14 men for 65 mins(and even 13 as well), i disagree with the Scottish referee in that sending off, wales now beaten Australia 3 times in a row for the first time since 1975, Scotland have beaten the Aussies the last three games as well
still to watch the 2nd half Scotland v Japan, i know the score though :)
France v the all blacks up next at 8pm
Ireland v Argentina tomorrow
pleasing the absolute silence by French fans for the Haka...unlike Ireland last week
New Zealand battered again 40-25 what on earth has happened to them lately, can only put it down to a long season for them i guess, biggest ever win for the French against them
Some performance from France on Saturday night.
England looking good as well. 6 nations should be great next year.
Hello, does anyone know if the Scotland France 6 nation tickets have already been sold? Brother in law is coming over from Italy that week and is looking to go. Looks like the Welsh just put their 6 nations tickets on sale this week.
good bonus try win for Edinburgh @ Dragons 30-14
Glasgow went down 19-18 @ Benetton
Edinburgh 2nd and Glasgow 7th
Another good bonus point win for Edinburgh tonight against a stubborn Benneton side (24-10).
A really strong squad at Edinburgh just now, and some of the younger guys tonight were excellent. Nasty looking injury for Mata early in the first half, and Kinghorn KO'd in the second half. Hopefully not too costly a victory in terms of players!
great win for Edinburgh at Saracens in the European Challenge Cup winning 21-18, nearly blew it right at the end by giving away a totally needless penalty by taking too long, Saracens kicked for the lineout and nearly got the winning try but the ball wasn't grounded properly after going to the TMO.
FT Edinburgh 34 Cardiff Rugby 10, really should have been a heavier defeat for cardiff
Glasgow v Ospreys just starting on Premier Sports
decent game FT Glasgow 38 Ospreys 19
what an embarrassing collapse by Glasgow Warriors, leading 17-14 in the 2nd half then....
52 Try
55 Try
60 Try
67 Try
74 Try
77 Try
FT Exeter 52 Glasgow 17....... a Rout
an improvement on the 42-0 Scoreline last time at Exeter
earlier Edinburgh were leading 20-14 @ London Irish, but the exiles,playing with only 14 the last 23 mins, got a try with just 3 mins remaining after Edinburgh caught offside, then converted to win 21-20
Edinburgh home to CA Brive in the Challenge Cup this evening.
First time back in a stadium since the Autumn Internationals at Murrayfield, and really looking forward to this tonight - even if I am going to be on my tod :greengrin
We were absolutely devastating tonight against an admittedly poor Brive side.
10 tries, 66 unanswered points, and a record attendance for the new stadium. I'll admit I had a fabulous evening and can't wait for the next home game.
The speed on both Edinburgh flanks with Darcy Graham and Freddie Owsley is terrifying...
Glasgow Warriors tough tie v La Rochelle tonight @8pm on BT Sports 2
they need to win this one i think
not for the first time glasgow make a total erky of it, up at La Rochelle try line and one bad pass has them all scrambling back down at their own 22, price kicks out on the full so it's brought back again then finally a La Rochelle try, very poor decision making HT 9-15
brilliant try within 30 seconds of the restart 16-15
46 mins, missed tackle try 16-22
49 mins penalty 16-25
51 mins, pure comedy errors from Glasgow one end to the other 16-32
58 mins 16-35
75 mins try 23-35
78 mins pen 23-38
80 mins try + con 30-38
Montpellier winning means Glasgow now drop to the challenge cup, they're sadly just not good enough to compete with the big boys yet
Six nations back this weekend.
Apart from Italy all the teams are decent so should be a great tournament. Cant see us retaining the championship though. France look great as do Ireland. Scotland look best they have in while and England are always competitive.
Bring it on! Particularly looking forward to Wales France on a Friday night in Cardiff. Wish I was going!
Ireland I think to win it. Scotland could be anywhere from champions to second last!! I think Wales will struggle. When I watch the championship games against the Welsh regions they look very poor. Although when they pull on that red jersey they do become a different animal
