Also James Lowe is a bitch who carries on like a dickhead and wants to fight everyone.

Safe in the knowledge that in the modern game, no member of the tight five would send him into cloud-cuckoo land.

Man of the match performance from James Lowe I thought.

Was hoping England would win that. I hate myself. Ireland looked much better after Prendergast went off… but maybe that because I think he’s a tool.

Nah the forwards in Ireland had turned the corner in the second half, Sam P got shit ball all the time. Much improved for Crowley

Tries to Bundee Aki, Gibson-Park, Lowe assist. What is the back story on these three? Money? Playing on a bigger stage? Missed / ignored by selectors? Family ties?
I am intrigued. Has any of the three explained?JGP went to Leinster years four years before his Irish call-up. He probably looked at the ABs and saw Nuggy, TJ and thought slim chance. Took the opportunity in front of him.
Bundee came from the long lost Irish tribe of the O'Aki's. So despite missing all manner of paperwork he still managed to fulfil a lifelong ambition to play Test rugby somewhere. Especially with Ma'a blocking any path to a black jersey.
James Lowe, realising he too wouldn't make the All Blacks, opted to move to Ireland as a project player with both parties acknowledging that once the residency criteria was met, he too would fulfil his lifelong ambition of playing Test rugby.

Thanks, that explains things, we did have a wealth of talent, not so much these days in the centres and half-backs -

Firstly has a stupid haircut.
Otherwise just constantly trying to pick fights or taking offense at nothing to try and start something.
He was a bit of a dickhead when he arrived in Ireland but it's gone to 11 since

I hear you on that but I think that of many players nowadays. At least it isn’t a mullet.
I’ve become Abe Simpson
As for the antics maybe he’s under strict orders now that Sexton has retired ?

England look good at the beginning, then drift, then almost stop, its been a repeated pattern, is it the coaching or the cattle? I don't rate Borthwick but if the run on team do a good job of sticking to the game plan, can you really blame the coach when they fuck it up when they get tired?
Overall, Ireland dominated the last 60 odd minutes of that game but the tries largely came from individual errors in D rather than a systemic break down. A few decisions went against England which were a bit suspect but i don't think it was those that cost us the game.
Overall, a pretty familiar feeling of blurgh. France will likely destroy us next week as they will smash us physically.
