Shambles on that last one. Looked rushed and headless chicken stuff. There's nearly an hour to go in a 5 point game. Sco need to show some composure and common sense.

{EDIT} Okay. Panic now :thumbup:

Scottish backs on their heels. Easy meters for Aki and Ringpiece.

Scotland really under the pump. This could be a cricket score.

Russell needs to chip it behind the Irish defensive line. There’s acres back there,,,,

I know it's hard against this Ire defence but there's no use playing high tempo unless you are getting some go forward through the fwds. If it's poor ball, you really are better kicking in behind.

Yeah. Sco looking ponderous and lost now. This could get really ugly.

Ireland has a distinct mid 2010's AB aura about them.

Bit of an anti climax for the neutrals really.

Really wish I wasn't aware of the obnoxious Oirsh crowd at PR otherwise I would be able to admire this Irish team without reservation.

Mockers only allow drinking after 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 first score.
If that were true our health service would be under less pressure.

Scotland toothless again unfortunately. Ireland too good. Ah well, roll on the quarters.

Yup. Unless either Ire get a red or you break Sexton in the first 5 mins.

Huw Jones demonstrating why Chris Harris was picked ahead of him for so long. Waste of a jersey.

Nah. Ireland huge favorite to win the RWC now. On the cusp of becoming the greatest team ever. Was never going to be a stitch up from them.

The ABs have lost enough times to Ireland in recent years to know exactly what to expect. Dealing with it is another thing entirely.
