Powerful Irish start this!

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

We are 16 behind you - if we win by exactly that many do we finish above you on head to head?

No - it goes to tries scored. You were well ahead but we have just scored at least seven. I would have to check. If we are equal on tries scored then it is shared.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Early Ireland try.

 

[Donegal Wolf]

Nice to POC score in his final 6N game

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Yes. Ireland have Scotland on toast already here. This is the game I was worried about. Told you Ireland were firm favourites.

 

[Dinowolf]

We'll see Paddy. Early doors.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Could do with Scotland coming away with something here.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Jared Payne should be having a 10 minute break for that challenge. Very dangerous.

 

[Donegal Wolf]

Cant really argue, was expecting a yellow when ref wouldn't let Scotland take a quick penalty.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Ireland get a second try when Scotland decide not to bother defending at all.

 

[Dublin Drummer Wolf]

Beautiful!

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Beautiful!

The take and run was great but what the hell were Scotland doing there? They are so poor at the moment. Wales will be out of this by halftime unless Scotland wake up a bit.

 

[Donegal Wolf]

Thats was a great try, planned move, saw O'Brien score same try for Leinster in a H cup a couple of years ago when Schmidt was coach.

 

[Dublin Drummer Wolf]

Shocking Rugby from Scotland there

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

It is a clever move, but the defending just HAS to be better. Ireland tried that twice last week and Wales stopped it.

 

[Donegal Wolf]

WTF - Hamilton throws a dummy and Mike Ross makes an interception!

Looks like game has no structure at all.

Surprised how poor Scotland are, thought Cotter would have them fired up for this one.

 

[Dublin Drummer Wolf]

Adrenaline is getting the better of us atm, sloppy stuff

 

[Dublin Drummer Wolf]

FFS....

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Phew. Didn't want Ireland running away with it. We need the theatre for the second half.

great start by Ireland, but Scotland have come back well and looked good tbh
