Local councils are prepping for November elections (I think the second week)

Tories working to line up their book deals (and Indian deal), and hoping for positive vibes after summer, Olympics, and who knows, perhaps a reduction in (mortgage) rates.

Leinster must be very good, seeing the level of English whining here.

(Though the feed into the scrum was very sideways)

Lovely.
Nice short passes and great support lines.

Fair dues Scotland, great defence.

Well done Ireland for holding on, but the team and performances regressed badly over recent weeks.

I never want to see Murray in an Ireland shirt again.

A lot of moaning Myrtles on this thread, complaining over nothing.
Good defences in this match, but everything else average.

Ireland repaying the Scottish generosity with 2 cheap penalties...

He should pay extra for being responsible for serving up this shite.

He's always happy to make excuses, but this team is poorly selected and poorly prepared. That's his fault.

First time England supporter ?
2nd (WC 2003). This is what Ireland have done to me

No, that's what your lack of principles have done ....

Fucking drop goal

Fair dues England, played their best match in a long while.

Faz needs to take some flack here: the team is regressing in this competition. And Connor Murray was on the pitch because of him.
Disappointing performance for Ireland.

How many drop goal attempts to come?

Ireland low on composure today.

Interesting last 10 minutes....

Why is Connor Murray still getting selected in green?!

And POM with a shitty penalty, and a yellow.

'your nose is more ridiculous than mine!'

Played well. Didn’t take advantage. Ref seems to have favoured Ireland at the breakdown. Missed 5 kickable points. It’s the hope isn’t it Yeah. For the first time in ages we're going to lose a game but genuinely see how this could be a team with a future. Not with Ford at the helm...i am convinced ...

Chavs in the crowd tonight making noise when Byrne Sr is trying to take the conversion. Just for that I hope Leinster fuck Cardiff up ! Point a minute please boys. Jinxing them here with that.

But very sweet of the ref to help Cardiff there ...

It always had its issues, but PMQs is really becoming unwatchable.

A lot of shouting, slights and accusations, but no accountability and definitely no answers.

What is the point of it....

Tory MP just said on BBC politics show that she'd have Lee Anderson back if he apologises.

If it takes 3 days to apologise, perhaps it's not very sincere...

Then she has a go about Labour in Rochdale, where Labour did act. Pretty dense.

Must have been a really hard 7-8 weeks and thoughts are with him and his family.

Hear hear.
Respect and condolences to the George family.

Oh I agree, thank feck for the tmo

C69, you're embarrassing yourself.

Thankfully the Welsh players have a bit more pride.

Missed 2 touchline conversions. Bossed the rest of the game when he was at 10. Harry Byrne was a step down when he came on.

No need to get defensive.
He played well, but his kicking wasn't good. One of the kicks was not that difficult.

Some strength by Lowe.
Poor kicking by Crowley today

Good to take Keenan off - he's too important, no need to risk him.

It was. Thought Pearce wasn't going to call it for a minute.

Interesting anthems interpretations....

Fair dues to the little lad, giving it some good Welly!

You would think, but these guys seem full of surprises today.

Some shocking decisions by ref and players.
Including the motm decision.

Big D wrote: ↑Sat Feb 10, 2024 5:07 pm Strong refereeing there. Don't agree with it right enough.

Ben Earl cost that. Kay praising him but they drove through the space he came from.

Agree on Earl - screwed his team there.

And then Wales screw themselves: awful game management.

How many different Tory groups are there now?! The popular Tory separatists, the separate group of Tory populists, the supposedly popular conservatives, the separatist Toffs, etc. etc. :crazy: 'The thick of it' and 'Monty Python' have got nothing on these idiots. Scary that most of them are supposed...

Enjoyable game, great result for the Irish.
Held out very professionally in the last 5 minutes.

Some dodgy reffing all over the shop...

Looked like a yellow in real time.

Pretty dense after getting away with the yellow on the first card.

Crowley not impressing so far.

Ah bugger, he's so important to us as a secondary playmaker. I would imagine JOB , Nash and Stockdale are the main pretenders at the moment. Wish Balacoune would rediscover some form. Think he's out as well. Zebo is the most like-for-like alternative, just saying... Don't even think it :mad: :silent:

That was a lovely mudbath try there

Happy New Year everyone

Bring on 2024!
