Heaviest World cup defeat for Ireland enough said.

Thanks Joe and Rory for your success in Irish rugby. However the time for them to go was before this world cup. The writing has been on the wall for sometime and the hard but necessary changes were not made.

Not looking forward to the Farrell era.

This team got beat by Japan, putting us up against a team was biting at the bullet to put the Irish upstarts in their place. We got zero game out wide at all and the minute we met a bigger front 5 we were fucked.

First score after 68mins, nearly thought we go the full 80 without a score

Left the comeback too late? 😜

Not just Rory.

Kearney shouldn't be anywhere near the team these days.

Stockdale had one good season and done nothing since.

Back up options for Fky-half are very poor. Carberry doesnt know what a penalty try means and Carty I just do not rate.

This competition with or without an in form Ireland has to have been one of the most boring tournaments ever!

The difference between championship and friendlies emphasised once again. Its just some ruby supporters don't understand that. 🤷‍♂️

Think Japan brought a bit quality to this world Cup but I expect a much heavier South African team to overun
them tomorrow.

Cracking win for England earlier too.

The All-Blacks don't even like to lose friendlies as you call them, problem is this Team peaked 18-24 months ago  especially beating England away and between poor form, manager leaving and old age profile we been in free fall since.
