Earls is Irish player of the tournament so far.
Not to mention that Russia had a huge nine (9!!!) days rest for this game as well. Ireland were always on a hiding to nothing here
Mon the boys.
What’s his bet
Carty really wants to kick everything. To be fair when he’s in the groove he really opens up the opposition.
Ireland -35
Ringrose heads the ball on for a try, what talent.
Rob Penney thinks Pele would have been proud of the header.
Ringrose fucked you
Why can none of these lads hold onto the ball?
Humidity and the roof is closed
Humidity.
Its fierce close.
Was that the actual handicap the bookies had?
Spot on.
Nope, it was 52
Do you win on your bet on a 35-0 win?
A nice fresh day and an open roof and we’d be hard bet
My impresssion so far - from dipping in and out of Ireland’s matches in between writing about them - is that Bundee is having a very lacklustre World Cup and Ireland need him out of the team
Kearnivore despite scoring a try in the last two games also looks very pedestrian
Schmidt has big attacking weapons there - Larmour, Ringrose, Stockdale, Earls and Conway - he has to have the guts to use them
What’s the story with Henshaw - he’s badly needed
-35 no
The job is done,
