6N England v Ireland
-
@catogrande I can't see it, France's attack is nowhere near as poor as Ireland's (despite the typical mercurial display last night).
-
Wales I think showed how to nullify the French game plan, added to that I feel we have a bit more physicality, which might make a difference. Can we? Yes. Will we? Not so sure.

Yeah England coped ok when it was just JGP offering an attack, not so sure they'll be able to hold as well with the French inside attack.

Well, I’d hope we keep 15 men in the field for mor than 82 seconds and maybe compete for possession a bit more!

It was proven today that more locks and blindsides in the loose trio is the answer.

The ABs really need to add the 50/22 to the bag of tricks.
Welcome to 2022
Not sure what your point is?? Can’t recall NZ ever doing a 50/22 but stand to be corrected. Conways effort today was top drawer.

Point being, I’m pretty sure that they might have considered the idea of playing to the current laws. And yes Conway’s kick was great and he did another, then stuck one out on the full. It’s a cruel game sometimes.

Jeremy Kyle. Hmmm.
They do look a little alike and are both complete fluffybunnies. I don’t know which one I would like to kick in the face first, but I do know it would be unlikely that I would tire of trying.

They both have the same voice and talk in the same manner. Smarmy fluffybunnies.

At last I gave some common ground with a Muslim terrorist. There is hope in the world.

Hard to choose who has the most slappable face, but I'd go for Sexton anytime.

It's high time that coaches and captains in their post-match interviews stopped blaming the officials and started acknowledging that one of their player's indiscretions - regardless of intent - gave the match officials, including the TMO, no other option but to send the player from the field.
James Ryan is 2.03m tall
Ewels had a legal target area of approx. 1.6m
This is a coaching issue.
What's forgotten in incidents like this is James Ryan's match was over after 82 secs.
Quite possibly he'll be out next weekend too.
Plenty of these types of vids floating around YouTube this morning
Sexton, who has form for being a cheap bastard, gets away scot-free based on this footage. Would like to have seen a close-up.
Could easily have been two reds in the same passage of play.
