[Chazza]

Fantastic

[danperkins]

Game over, well done to the Argies deserved it.

[Boogs]

Blaming injuries? Not once did Wales do that

[RichC]

Best team won on the day

[danperkins]

Absolutely, credit where it's due.

[Chazza]

They've been brilliant.

Lose discipline from time to time but the play with ball in hand is superb.

Really young team as well so they should get better.

[danperkins]

Very exciting young side alright, they really are great to watch.

[DannyMan2006]

They were better as well. Like the Saffa's yesterday

I thought today was a 50/50 game, most made Ireland slight favourites.

The score line flatters them, this was a close game and for me, they just had that bit more passion & desire. Ability wise, there's nothing in it.

[danperkins]

Pace killed us Danny, they don't just rely on power.

[Boogs]

So, Scots v Aussies. This is going to be brutal as in physical. Don't think the Scots have much of a chance but we will see

[Cormack74]

Never expected that.

Leaving aside the first 10 minutes, I think a lack of experience in the Irish back line today led to some poor decision making on a couple of occasions, where cooler heads might have given them a realistic chance of scoring (another) try (tries).

[danperkins]

Yeah Aussies are bankers IMO, be a good game to watch i feel.

If Ireland had a full squad then it would have been more of a contest.

Yeah possibly, too many key players out but sure can't take it away from a fine performance from the Argies. The first 12 mins they blitzed us.

With a full squad they win that, no question. Think the lesser lights should have had a bit more about them today though. I personally feel they caved in a bit and didn't give it everything.
