    This is a pretty enjoyable game! Wales up on Ireland, 8-6. Battering Murray and Sexton, just not that good at finishing. Ireland's only option seems to be to kick, even throwing out the defensive bomb with great gusto.

    Barnes is yet to make his howler and also hasn't as yet pulled out his ambiguous law call.

    15-9 now.

    @Bones It's been a good game but both teams look out on their feet after 60.

      Fuck me this match is tense.

      Wales definitely on top overall but the breakouts from sides is keeping the nerves on edge.

      Barnes has had his yellow with Sexton and Wales took some advantage. Murray off but Marmion doing ok.

        And there it is! Pulls out his abstract ruling just as Ireland score a "try".

              He's a pedantic fart. For both sides.

                How the fuck did we manage to lose to this unimaginative one dimensional bunch in green?

                  Cos they didn't play like this before?

                  Shocking loss of composure by Ireland and Sexton gets trampled by Roberts.

                  Fuuuuuuuuck!

                      Despite the Oirish losing tonight, I have a sneaky suspicion they will beat the Poms next weekend

                            I can't fucking believe we lost to Ireland last year. Fuck.

                            @Pot-Hale you're still one of my favourite posters on here though

                              Can I just say, fuck off Jonathan Davies! NZ weren't even playing in this game and the midget was still having a whinge.

                              And well done Wales. A big "up yours" from North to his detractors.

                                @Bovidae said in Six Nations 2017:

                                I think it's just Welsh people talking normally rather than whinging. It sounds the same.

                                  Just watching thisgame now and it's a great test. Maybe not aesthetically, but it's tough as fuck

                                  Ireland look like a league team, hit ups and bombs. Wales just absorbing pressure and hanging on.

                                  Wayne Barnes has been good.

                                      @Bones Davies mentioned NZ in relation to deliberately not forming rucks (I would have thought Italy was more applicable, but whatever) and then Butler sarcastically told him off. I didn't watch the entire game, just had the TV on in the background. I'm not saying the others weren't just as guilty but I didn't hear them myself.

                                        @Bovidae Ahh yeah that's right, I'd forgotten that was him. That was odd, as was POC stating how good the ABs are at targeting injured players.

                                          Watching the 2nd half. Very entertaining, if a little bash and kick.

                                          We could be in a bit of bother if the Lions tests become an arm wrestle. We lose one of Whitelock and Retallick and I'm worried. Home nations forwards are tough as nails and have impressive engines. On the other hand, if it becomes open then it could be a bloodbath. Difference between Sexton et al and Barrett is pretty massive.
