    Lots of adversity today with injuries, a massive Scottish effort and no hooker

    so far so good
    Long way to go yet

    Ireland putting clear daylight between them, 22-7. Scots just seem to have lost heart...

    I felt the Scots threw the kitchen sink at us in the first half. We just about weathered it. It must have been disheartening for them to go in at half time behind.

    Ireland gone from defensive mode to offensive mode.
    One more try and a bonus point win and we win 6 nations today

    I was surprised they didn't go for the 3 points at the end of the first half, psychologically 10-8 may have been a boost. Ireland in full control now, theirs to lose...

    Sexton has been an unbelievable servant to Ireland. Carter was magic but Sexton’s longevity marks him out

    You’ll be playing our U20s next week at the stage. We’ll have no players left

    His 2 conversions in the 2nd half were real hammer blows, there was no coming back from that. Should be a proper party next week, English lambs to the slaughter...

    Good workmanlike win by Ireland, away against what is undoubtedly a decent Scottish Team. England may be hurting but I can't see them lifting their game to anything like Ireland's level next week. Just hope they rally enough to keep the score reasonably respectable

    No offence Nuts, but several of my friends are plastic paddies and they're being annoyingly overconfident at the moment. I realise the chances are vanishingly slim, but it would give me immense pleasure if England caused an upset tomorrow.

    Greater pleasure if the Rs win, though.

    Overconfidence is rife Stroller, and is disrespectful too in my opinion, England have absolutely nothing to lose and this should be recognised

    If the England pack can achieve parity, anything is possible. <cheers>
