    Unbelievable from Lowe, and Osbourne had a bit to do as well. Brilliant try.

    Lowe will deservedly get plaudits, but that was FILTH from Sheehan too.

    Casey has been pretty poor so far. His decision making is glacial in comparison to JGP

    Superb try. Osborne has had an excellent first half despite a nervy first 10. Carrying hard and commits defenders with ball in hand.

    Quoted wrong person.

    Can't delete.

    No wrap in that try saving tackle attempt. **** shoulder on someone on the ground

    We're 5 down rather than 3 up because of Jack Crowley.

    IIt's unacceptable for a test 10.

    Another Doris turnover.

    He's exceptional today.

    Porter a penalty machine and Furlong has done it past the sell by date

    Sick of seeing cheap shots like that on try scorers. Something World Rugby should look at.

    Great try though.

    Probably , but he wasn't remotely close with conversion and his penalty was very poor

    Doris is borderline a one man back row out there

    Unbelievable try for Ireland there. Crowley not kicking well is going to hurt us

    And another steal from Doris.

    Best player on the pitch today.

    Baird needs to be on, POM has been a liability. Doris is doing everything out there at the moment. Centres have been poor for us, lacking creativity and penetration.

    Doris is the best player on the pitch. He’s already had a couple of turnovers to keep us in it when we’ve been out under pressure and his carrying and footwork before contact has been superb.

    Casey is terrible, reminds me of all the bull talk about how great Harry Byrne was, it the same with casey. He is bog standard and blade is no better. Just no one really coming through at the moment.

    By Christ this is the worst TV production of a rugby match I've ever seen. The worst camera angles to leave you guessing what the f happened, non stop shots of gobs*ites in the crowd waving at themselves on the big screen and the crappiest of audio that allows us to barely hear ref while Quinlan states the obvious.
