The IRISH RUGBY thread

England favourites today, Ireland up against it, be a few points either way here

Wouldn't be shocked to see England give Ireland a hammering today. James Ryan etc. have been bullied in the last few matches so expect to see Sinckler, Itoje and Genge when he comes on, to give them their fill of it. The pack need to front up in the scrum today and not allow themselves to be dominated or it could be a long shift.

Irelands tackling was abysmal last day out, Ireland have lost last four games v England so when they run at the Irish they need to stand strong otherwise it'll be five!

Cements his place for another 5yrs to the boards chagrin 😉😃

Superb first half variation/aggression a lot more like it.

England will come strong I'm sure but a great start... especially for a team who were finished!?
