Ireland start away to France.
First half Ireland very dominant, France player received a yellow and sent to the sin bin for 10 minutes, for a high tackle. Comes back on and does the same to get a second yellow, which is red.
HT score France 10- Ireland 17

We really need to bury them this second half.
Can’t believe how poor the French have been.
Nash on debut, local boy Crowley stepping up.
COYBIG! 🇮🇪
That was never a try, knocked it on.
The maul was dragged down by the French as it was going out & yet O’Mahoney gets a sin bin?
Digusting.
Delighted for the new guys, McCarthy, Nash & my boy Crowley.
But don’t get carried away, we will need to play better to beat England imho.
Awful French display, weird.
Hope not.
Wales are proper awful 😳
Funnily enough it’s been turned back now I’ve told him they’ve suddenly remembered how to play rugby 😂😂😂
Glad he’s not jumped on the Wrexham bandwagon.
Good man 👍🏼🤣🤣
Performance of the weekend, young 8 year old Stevie.
Sang it loud and proud until a couple of players sneaked up behind him. They gave him a kit and said he & his family could come to a game.
Then up he pops yesterday and belts it out in front of a full Aviva! That takes some doing! What a wee legend 💚🇮🇪👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
The question now is can Ireland be the first team to win back to back grand slams in the 6 Nations.
Good to see Italy win earlier too.
😉
Well played England 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Well played England - some performance.
Perhaps today we saw one yeah plateauing and another improving.
Apart from the cricket it's been a good day!
Even if kicking, it should have been Lowe rather than Murray.
A disappointing performance and result for Ireland, England deserved the win and, with a more settled and confident panel would have won by more.
I did worry that the tackle on Gibson Park for Lowe's second try looked a bit high, but the officials obviously didn't share my concern.
