The Irish were just toying with England. The Twickers crowd were right on Wilkinsons back.
Think it's time for him to go! And Johnson can drive him back to France

irelands agression in the tackle and the ruck won this game for them but we by know means were toying with the english it was great combative game which youd expect from two countrys with such a complex background..but its always good to beat the old enemy...great match heartstopping stuff fantastic result....oh yea tommy bowe tommy bowe tommy bowe

I thought when Earls got his try we were going to pull away and win comfortably. Credit to the English for coming right back at us but in the end we just have better players and I dont think we played excellently but could rely on magic from the likes of BOwe or Earls, which is something ENgland dont really have. Think O'Gara's introduction was crucial also.

O Gara made a massive difference, shame he didnt start - england may have never had a chance in the first place if he did

Sexton deserved his chance and while his kicking wasn't great, his general play was decent. His run and kick for Bowes opening try is something O'Gara would never do for example.

yeah you trade efficiency for one aspect of the game over another. With O'Gara kicking i doubt england would have been able to come back and would have been out much earlier. Without Sexton there wouldnt have been a first try so it evens itself out. Considering the win you'd have to say management played the cards right

If we win you cant criticise, exactly!
I dont think Eng would of been out of it had we started O'Gara though. Sexton gave them other things to worry about, was he gonna run it, kick it pass it to the backs, bring in the forwards, O'Gara invaribly always kicks and it means their forwards know exactly whats coming!

Ireland v Wales this weekend and O'Driscolls 100th cap - a well deserving honour for him. Best number 13 anywhere in the world for the last 10 years.

Sir Stirling Mortlock? Nonu? Dan Herbert? Jean de Villiers? I guess you're right.
Although that big Welsh lad has impressed me every time I've seen him.

O'Driscoll is better than all of those if you take into consideration how long he has been going and he has gotten tries against everybody - he is an amazing player.
Are u talking about jamie roberts? He is number 12 and not in the same bracket as O'Driscoll anyway.

When I said 'I guess your right' I wasn't being sarcastic. O'Driscoll is clearly the 13 of the past decade in my opinion. |

I follow it when I can catch it. Worked at the Brisbane Rugby 7s many years ago and met a bunch of the players. The Japanese were awesome.
How good is Will Genia? Almost pipping Fourie Du Preez as the number 1 half back in world rugby at the moment.
Genia + Cooper - second best halves combo after Du preez and Steyn.
