Great kick Ross byrne.

COME ON IRELAND !!!!!!

UAEguy2020

How the hell is this only a 2 point game!?!

That's why Ross Byrne will continue to pick up caps.

Pretty much a 0-0 game now..

One score..

Need to press on!

Clareman

Only 2 points in it with 15 minutes remaining, COME ON IRELAND

TheCitizen

Brilliant from Byrne. Madness that he didn't start. Burns should never play for Ireland again.

What would you rather?

Why aren't we fixing defenders...?

Same. Can’t understand why someone would be Xenophobic.

Clareman

About 4 passes in a row there were made without fixing the defender, why can't we just tie up their defenders?

Pudsy33

OK that was ****e

Ref is ignoring all offside lines outside 15m form the line . French offside at every phase

What is the point of Lowe?
He's is killing us

Except for JGP, James Lowe, Billy Burns and Rob Herring

They’re wearing the jersey, they’re Irish players.

If Byrne started the game we'd be ahead here right now

Clareman

Ahhhhh James you got away and made a mistake then, that's enough for today I think

French holding on in the tackle WELL after they should be releasing... Lost count of how many times they've dragged someone on the ground by the leg.

Why kick? You beat the player, ruuuuun

Nothing easier to defend against. All they have to do is fan out and they have us covered. Even when we have depth and pace it's wasted by early passing. So frustrating to watch

Would be bad schoolboyb rugby... Makes drift defense too easy.... Over to you Keith, 1m space and 6 French lads!

I like Kelleher work in the tight, he’s really hitting the french hard. Ross byrne doing well

Doctors room ghost

Pure slop from France all day long

Lowe kicking himself out of the next game if Stockdale is available

That ball that squirted out after Beirne was tackled but the French player never released was ridiculous.

Yup, neither are Sexton but RB >>>> BB

I also think RB has room to grow where as BB is at his level and will never be more than a quality Pro14 player

That haven’t dreamed of playing for Ireland growing up as a kid.

Lowe is better than that kick out on the full but he is a problem defensively. Looks to be really struggling when in a more underdog setting

Lowe has ability. He's rash and erratic at times, there's a player there though.

Still feels like Ireland can win this.

Healy is spaced out. Shocking he is still on

Clegg

Our scrum is rock solid.

Whatever we've done on the training pitch has worked wonders.

Dave 'The Steward' Kearney. Knows how to score a try too.

Fichou or Dulin for man of match

Surprised he even came back on.

Clareman

Ed Byrne on, he was great on Mock the Week

UnknownSpecies

Despite flaws elsewhere in our play, I have to say our work at the ruck has been great today. So solid in securing our own ball and some impressive counter rucking too.

Furlong sucking it in!

There's a real possibility that he won't get an opportunity to start a 6N for 12 months.

Healy shouldn't have been on this long. His cardio has always been poor. I remember him blowing hard in most games after 30mins.
That knock on was pure fatigue. He couldn't even jog after he dropped it.
