Three French men couldn't stop Ringrose. We were always told to tackle round the ankles and bring your man down. You don't see that much any more.

What a game that was, well done Ireland. Think that was probably the result that will see them win the six nations. Until their next game that is ha ha

Sees Ireland well posed for the World Cup as well. Must be in with a real chance

[cabbageandribs1875]

we're determined to let Wales back in this



points from this visit would be most welcome

wow thought that was held up 11-0 conversion to come, 13-0

Turner sin bin at least

wales right back in it 13-5 conversion to come


maybe we might get some territory ourselves 13-7


Welsh blow a great chance to go in at HT ahead still 13-7, this is not great

[cabbageandribs1875]

does dempsey not know the rules regarding choking an opponent, eejit



thought he had spilled that there, anyway 18-7 conversion to come tough angle though, lovely kick 20-7


nice one 25-7 confident now :)

[hibsbollah]

This second half has been the Finn Russell show.

[cabbageandribs1875]

is this officially a hammering now 30-7 russell misses an easier conversion this time

[Mon Dieu4]

I know they are really expensive but what a difference hybrid pitches make, look at the state of Easter Road compared to Murrayfield which has concerts and all sorts on it, def an investment we should be thinking of

[SteveHFC]

What a result that is.

[cabbageandribs1875]

woop woop 35-7

another miss :( let him off this time

why did horne not kick it out lol

[Mr Grieves]

A very satisfying win. Russell has been magic this second half.

[cabbageandribs1875]

Gay Paree next



nice seeing Doddie's sons handing the cup to finn russell :)


that'll be Scotland 2 Wales 3 in Doddie weir cups

So, just in from the Rugby Club and I am askolutely blootered! Ireland played well but got the rub of every decision. Scotland played very well and rhe scoreline didn't flatter us at all. We were by farvthe better side and deservedb5he bonus point win!! Both Ireland France have to go to Twickenham so we are in pretty good shape going into week 3. I am now away to my bed as I am absolutely oot my box!!🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Only seen the highlights of Ireland v France, but it looked like Barnsey had a questionable day in the middle - Lowe was out, no 2 ways about it. France lucky to escape with a yellow when they should have seen red. I might watch the full game, as I've seen a few folks I follow from the rugby world on Twitter suggesting some of his penalty decisions were poor too. Ireland looking quite formidable just now though.

Was at Murrayfield yesterday and it was so nice to see us finally stick one on Gatland. Thought we were OK first 20 minutes, dreadful in the 2nd 20 minutes, imperious in the second half. Some of the offensive rugby we played was so easy on the eye - fast, creative, solid...our discipline yesterday was excellent for a change, very few handling errors or failure to release in breakdowns. Finn eventually came into a game and dominated that second half - his vision at times is ridiculous.

It had no impact on the game, and I know he represents the IRFU, but I was really surprised that a Welshman was in charge yesterday - he had a good game mostly, but a strange decision!

Thought Ireland played well yesterday against the worlds 2nd ranked team . Definitely didn't get all the decision's our own way France should definitely have got a red card for what can only be described as a dangerous high tackle. Ireland next opponent is Italy away and is a game i'd expect us to win , while Scotland are away to France which is never easy . After that both Scotland and Ireland meet at Murrayfield which won't be easy though I fancy our chances the way we are playing and with being the worlds number 1 team . Scotland's last game is Italy at Murrayfield which they will win . Ireland's last game is England at the Aviva stadium . Both Ireland and Scotland are very much in the mix though i think Ireland will win there next 3 games 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪.

England beating Italy without being spectacular, Italy haven’t shown anything like what they did against France.

Scrappy game at Twickenham.

Watched it in full earlier - aside from the yellow that could have been red, almost every decision went Ireland's way.

That Lowe's try stood was laughable - no point having a TMO if they're going to miss a decision THAT big.

I think you have too much quality to not win it this year - I'm naturally pessimistic being Scottish and think we'll lose both our next 2 games before beating Italy to finish 3rd...assuming England don't find some serious form between now and the final day.

[heretoday]

Scotland don't drop the ball so much now!
Very professional.

Welsh team threatening strike action against the WRU Six Nations: Wales’ clash with England in doubt as Warren Gatland’s players consider strike action – report (msn.com) i really don't think they will strike

[cabbageandribs1875]

3-match ban for French Prop Atonio, though he could be available to face Wales in the last game if he completes a coaching intervention programme

I think it's looking increasingly likely. Some horror stories coming out of the Wales camp lately. No wonder they're a tire-fire on the park.

nah i think things will be sorted for the visit of England, the WRU would lose a huge amount of £££'s if that was called off, besides i don't think the fans of both teams would be very pleased. :)

Can we just forget the Edinburgh game took place and not bother discussing it...? We were absolutely awful - even Mike Blair said exactly that!

Have you noticed the new major league rugby getting underway in the US, S? The Seattle Seawolves is an interesting moniker, I didn’t know what this alleged animal was!

The Welsh players would not be popular if they came out on strike.

[Dalianwanda]

I just want to highlight the amazing great escape in staying in the top division beating Glasgow Hawks through there to stay up...For a small club based around community they have done brilliantly.

I saw the Warriors game - absolutely horrendous weather once again at Scotstoun. They ground out a victory but an absolutely deserved one, its a pity that Ulster kicked that last minute penalty to secure a losing bonus point.
