| Probably the worst game iv seen in years, schoolboy errors. Forwards pushed them off the scrum and won every lineout and still only managed 3 trys. I know playing conditions were brutal but in fairness you could have sent an AIL team and they would have put up a betterr show. I really hope they get it together for the Aussie match. They are underdogs going into it so at least there is no pressure on them to win. |

| Iits not the australians im worried about as the Irish seem to produce against top teams and a bonus point would be invaluable. I think they will struggle against Italy because they wont have the same forward domination against them and as everyone can see the backs are just not clicking together.

| Wish they'd stop playing Darcy, each game gets more cringe worthy! His day has past |

| If I was in charge of picking a team I would play Trimble at 11 and Earls at 12 and take decision making away from ODriscoll. Hopefully Kearney will be fit for weekend. |

| O'Gara should be starting, don't rate Sexton at all. Looking good for a win with 8 minutes left |

| What a game!!! They couldn't handle our style of play at all. Having said that when oz did go forward they looked bloody dangerous. Before the match they Aussies just didn't look up for it like we did. The lads were really in the zone
Sexton's kicks maybe a little off but he's by far a more rounded player than rodge. Ye rodge came on and slotted a few but his pussy tackling is what really let's him down. |

| Have to agree with you Scott but I think having 2 world class no#10s is something that most other countries would love to have. When Darcy went off it was a brilliant move to play Sexton in the center, something that Kidney has already done during the warm up games. Fair play to the whole lot of them from 1-22 and yere right it makes me proud to be Irish. |
