About to hit the road

Hopefully a good game and big Irish win

Hopefully Larmour comes on and scores cause we will be in melt down on here if he plays crap

No we won't hes a damn fine attacking talent and he should do well when he's on... but he won't be crucified if he doesn't set the world alight

You have been around here long enough to know that’s not true, Stockdale comes to mind instantly.

There was a few at fault for the try against France... doesn't mean one collective mistake will get the guy crucified... regular posters normally see the difference.

lawred2

Great OP.

That drop goal still gets my hair standing on ends.

Even better without the commentary.

I mean he did get crucified for a mistake that wasn’t solely his and some of it was by regular posters. I don’t think Larmour would get a free pass on here if he plays badly. Don’t think it will happen, he’s clearly a very focused guy and has made every step up with ease so far, though he may play a more conservative game than some would wish, a la Montpelier.

I shall miss this game as I am giving away a bride at 3pm (not a daughter, an aunt, so I might be able to catch the first half).

Here's to a better performance!

If you're giving her away just stick her on done deal and get somebody else to do it

Do you know the difference between a trampoline and a banjo?

This might hold more weight if you didn't have a January 2018 join date... :P

thomond2006

Bookies are making Ireland 33 point favourites. The weather looks decent and that bench is worth a few tries.

Let's hope they show the start of the game and not miss it by showing ads

OldRio

ITV HD is a superb picture. Just looked at TV3 Saorview. Fecking awful.

turnikett1

The TV3 livestream is utter sh1te. Bad quality, and a bottom bar that says TV3 which doesn't go away even when you full screen, dreadful really.

molloyjh

Kearney’s hands excellent twice already.

molloyjh

Crap. Furlong gone for a few weeks at least.

whatawaster

Furlong injured. Worrying

DDC1990

Disaster with Furlong. Hope its not serious.

laugh

Poite's hair is gone mental.

Beechwoodspark

Jasus. Looks fairly serious. Hope he’s back for next match.

Lucy8080

This is worrying...not the game... the combination of Guinness and a toastie!

whatawaster

Big test for Porter

LuckyGent88

Hope that’s not another ligament injury in nothing circumstances

whatawaster

Sexton has had a poor start

A-Train

Hopefully it’s not that bad with Furlong

Bollllllllox.

Didactic Ninja

Murray appeals to the ref more than any other player in the game. Just get on with it.

Stheno

They're a bit skittish so far

c.p.w.g.w

Was stockdale not held there? Should be an itailian pen?

whatawaster

Get in!

A-Train

Get over Robbie
