With Henderson on the bench the team v Japan lacks sufficient ballast. Won’t do against the All Blacks.
Team of us, everyone in.
Stings could still do a job I’d say
I’ll be keeping a close eye on two areas
Our exit strategy
Our ability to generate scoreboard separation
And scoreboard overtickage ?
Good to see the national broadcaster giving this test match a full 1 hour preview/build up.
Nawful jersey
I think it’s decent. in fairness.
The Japs aren’t putting up much resistance to the men in purple.
Get the open top bus ready lads, only a matter of how much the team of us will win the next World Cup by if they keep up this form…world rugby has gotten rid of quarter finals haven’t they?
Wonderful scenes at the Aviva there for Johnny Sexton.
Try for Sexton on his 100th cap. What a moment.
Surprised to only see him at cap No.100. Thought he’d actually have more accumulated since 2009. Great going for a lad who only made his debut as a 24 year old though.
Ireland tearing teams apart in rugby, must be the November Internationals and the RWC must be a few years away.
Fucking hell, Sexton is still starting in November Internationals
Jonny in tears there as he’s been told today was his 100th cap.
He can remember about 27 of them.
I’d say he’s seething he didn’t get motm
Sexton gets given a samurai sword by a kiwi fella playing for Japan, and then nearly cuts a finger off himself by letting it slip out of the sheath.
Imagine the damage Will Donoghue or Hego would do with a samurai sword.
