Ireland v France - The 6N decider

First topic message reminder :

With such a strong points advantage if Ireland can just win in Paris then the Championship is there's. Now it's never been a happy hunting ground for Ireland - can they do it?

I think it's there year and I'm going to say yes.

Is Walsh going to apply any of the IRB rules to France?

I can see them winning from here.

did you not watch the first game then?

BOD!!!

Sexytoes gives us all the two fingers   

A fitting end for bod. There is the championship.

Ah Trimble, your player of the tourney

Yesssss, he can't kick but he can score tries. Well done Sexton.
Also brilliance by sexton and BOD

Told yous not to panic. France are a balloon waiting to pop.

Mike brown or Trimble.

Beautiful run by Trimble, was sure BOD was in there.

France are so feckin' lazy...

Finally Ireland starting to see the considerable best of Andrew Trimble.

Yep, England were all over them but they had a few lucky moments and won the match. Playing much better against Ireland today than they did then.

Come on Ireland, BELIEVE!

He's played below par yet he's got a pair of tries... Irish luck  shining on Johnny boy today. Trimble has really impressed me this tournament, I thought his time had gone but he's come back really strong.

BOD try coming here.

Does anyone else think that the slo-mo shot of Murray and Sexton patting each others faces in celebration of the try looked a little brokeback mountain?

lol. that has made my day. You only watch rugby through your own eyes. You cant get rid of the bias

Jeez, he takes an age to kick them, but thankfully it goes over.

Don't stop now Ireland!

Sexton very lucky there, he could have been pinged for taking too much time.

France are showing elements of their best today but remain ill disciplined. Sexto isn't kicking to Huget and Dulin which is why France aren't doing what they did to England, a huge tactical error by the English but Enlgand are not the team now that opened this championship

Trimble is on fire.

sexton went down like a wendyball player

So I compliment Englands performance by saying they dominated the match and that France had a few lucky moments that won them the match and you say I am biased. You are thick as a brick. Not going to entertain your blatant looking for trouble during this match. Good luck finding a new victim.

France are breaking here. Ireland need to up the pace even more.

no you clearly dont remember the game. France were on fire first half. The first 30 mins especially was for me there best spell of rugby. Yes england 100% gifted them the game at the end when we had completely bashed them to an inch of there life.. However Frances best 30 mins was there first 30 mins.

Schmidt is genius and these guys are heros. This is amazing.

you really are a nasty piece of work arnt you. Just because you cant admit how well France played first half in there first game  isnt my problem..

Well the stats are looking better for Ireland this half.

Much better from Ireland in the second half but I am still very much wary of this French side.

Well, Ireland are still a converted try plus above. They need to score again though, even a couple of penalties just to keep the scores ticking over.

France have more scores in them but I think we do too.

We saw in the first match against England what this French team can do while still in touch.

Yellow for Ireland coming...

Flip this could be yellow!

Oh schitt. There could be a yellow for Healy here...

Healy is lucky because Kearney had already conceded just before.

Lucky for Healy there, that was very close to a yellow card.

Should be red for flying headbutt. Remember the outrage when Haskell did that and only got a week ban? And bans are for reds so technically red.

Oh wow how is that not a card?

Picamoles was having himself some milk there

I just hope Walsh is feeling generous...he doesn't usually give out yellows willy-nilly.

Luckily, Ireland keep 15 players on the pitch.

It was coming...

Ireland are kicking too much now. Defsive mode

Try. Wow ireland dong well to avoid a yellow in that sequence.

Sorry, but I didn't see that try. I can only assume Walsh got a good view.

Having just said you watch the game through your own eyes you then tell me i don't remember it?

I do.

Whoa he's knocked on there.

Walsh, there was a knock on. France lucky there.

Walsh... he dropped it! Total nutcase!

France have been stitched up there. Two things:

1. Picamoles is penalised earlier for slowing down the ball a second, Ireland do it at every ruck in the red zone and get nothing

2. Healy flying headbutts a player and escapes Scot free

Here comes the subs. Lets go for it lads.
