“It’s never easy in France” says Joe McCarthy, channelling Jonny Cooper’s response when Dublin were drawn against the winners of Carlow v Wicklow in the 2017 Leinster football championship.

Farrell has taken the emotional shite out of Irish rugby. We are ruthless now.

If the World Cup was on this year we would surely win it

Surely.
Crowley was immense. Doris, McCarthy, Beirne, Sheehan on the darts. The kiwis were all class. Brilliant.

What’s the limit for this Irish team says Shane.
Lols.
They’ll win the Walsh Cup maybe. Or the FBD League.

The three test series against South Africa this summer is going to be BOX OFFICE. It’s basically a British Lions tour in all but name.

Crowley was a mixed bag but at least he can run. The conversions from the touchline in the 2nd half were great though. Definitely has a future once he clears up a few things. Should be a good battle between himself and Prendergast in a couple years time.

A subtle slating for Crowley from the experts.
Took sexton nearly 3 seasons to shake off rog. Crowley dealing with a lot so for his first big outing that was excellent.
He has the raw talent, time will polish the edges.
Sexton had a better supporting cast at his club at the time too.
Tonights victory for a 32 County Ireland team really whets the appetite for a historic shinner First Minister at Stormont tomorrow

Great to see so many Irish over there as usual. Will be the same at home. Always the best attended competition. Rugby World Cups, European football championships and FIFA World Cups (a generation ago for both Irish teams now) are one thing, but nothing captures the consistent interest like this.
