Sexton off the bench according to RTE, Earls in.
Tight hamstring.

goreyguy

no sexton on the bench.

means Jackson is going to get the full 80.

Fireball07

Interesting that ROG wasn't put on the bench?

So does that mean we'll see Marshall and Jackson together for a bit? I do hope so...

You miss hook for his ability to start every sentence with...

"The problem with ******** is"..........

"The problem this ireland team have is"......

"The problem with kidney is"....

We were more than likely going to see that anyway.

It means Jackson will play 80 minutes though unless they want to look at Luke Marshall at 10

Most of the stands are sold out, although tickets could still be bought for all four terraces last night

Sorry Fishooks for dragging this up but the stands look far from sold out. Must have been a load of comp tickets that weren't taken up.

O'Shea saying Zebo should be starting at 15.
Pope saying it's ridiculous that Bent not starting and McCarthy is a 6?

McCarthy has spent most of his career at 6. He moved to the second row a few years ago.

razorblunt

Jerry Flannery looks like David Dentons Dad!

lovely anthem

Marshall really is a small fella...

Do Fijians do a little dance?

The curse of Paddy Wallace gets passed onto poor Marshall.

Well Marshall actually plays 10, unlike Wallace.

RTE have McFadden at 11 and Gilroy at 14? Is this correct?
Bit strange if so no?

irishbucsfan

Great kick from Marshall there. Great opportunity to start things off

leakyboots

Great to see the maul being used

Correct yep

6 Irish players in the ruck and the Fijians turn it over...

durkadurka

Well done Eoin mc love

leakyboots

....illegally... 3-0

Strange, they generally play the other way around for province don't they?
Wonder is there something in that for next week? (McFadden v. Trimble for eg).

leakyboots

Good boxkick from Murray, Gilroy should have done better there

Was talking about the previous one where Murry went.

durkadurka

Yeah it tends to be Nacewa or Lukey at 11. Fergus tends to play 14 if he's on the wing

goreyguy

static

bleg

Great try!

irishbucsfan

Ahhhhhhhhh Marshall!

goreyguy

Marshall and Gilroy

leakyboots

Great try, great play by Marshall, nice burst of acceleration to send Gilroy over

Heroditas

Superb stuff

molloyjh

Marshall did well there. Go on the Ulstermen!!!

.ak

G'wan Luke! Lovely stuff.

Murray's spending more time under rucks then at the base of them.

Fireball07

Excellent try, great stuff from Marshall.

INEEDANID

RTE PLayer working for anyone?

Fireball07

Great kick.

durkadurka

Beautiful conversion. Paddy for 22

He hasn't been well protected, Heaslip is hanging out by the wing or playing ruck inspector for e.g. Murray's done well to get the ball back under the circumstances

Because of terrible ball security though. I wouldn't blame him. Pack needs to be more clinical.

Nice diagnosis!

Good lord, Ross absolutely killed the Fijian LH there.

Henderson is great. Hard to believe he's so young.

he is in the line out too , think Jamie should tell him he is a scrumhalf

Ah here, that's very obviously a pre planned move, you'll regularly see SHs standing in at 1.

bleg

Not straight down the Fijian side... thought that was OK so long as it doesn't give you an advantage...
