Brilliant first half, messy second but the game was over anyway. Very surprised at how poor Scotland were in the first half. Biggest concern is possible injuries. Lowe, Hansen, Furlong....particularly Lowe who's gone to hospital with an eye injury.
The reward for coming first in such a tough group is the All Blacks waiting in the quarters....what a shit fucking mess the IRB made of this WC.

Well played Ireland- comfortable win.
No cards or injuries to speak of ... crowd is amazing.
Both teams a lot more disciplined that the ABs (18 pens in total ... we do that on our own)@Mattasaurus Hansen and Lowe are concerns, no?

Could be telling that Scotland finished over the top of Ireland once all the replacements came on.
@Stag don’t think so. Ireland starting emptying the bench at 48 mins and dropped their intensity a little after. Couldn’t have gone much better for them being able to rest leading players so early into the second half and giving the whole bench a decent run out.

I thought they were just minor .. but could be wrong.. and someone said Lowe is off to hospital...

La Rochelle showed how to beat Leinster in Dublin in this year's EC final. 13 starters for Ireland came from that province this evening. Winning the physical battle up front is the key, of course.
. And that version of the ABs was not the current version.
