England v Ireland | Extended Highlights | 2022 Guinness Six Nations

[@joedennehy386]

The big difference in Irish rugby, is they have learned how to offload in contact, they time their passing very well. Exciting to watch

[@RazorMouth]

They always knew how to but Schmidt's game plan didn't allow for it. Leinster have been doing it for years.

VDF, has been Irelands best player for a while now. Fantastic player.

[@harveysowerbutts3414]

Very hard to say, Ireland undoubtedly has the most depth at back row out of any test team in the world. I don't think we have a open side specialist in the country besides JVDF and for that reason he should always start. Definitely has a more rounded game than Doris or Conan but they both carry harder. Caelen Doris is overrated as f, I don't rate jack conan at the breakdown (even if you're great in open play, it's just not good enough as a backrower) and I honestly think there is no reason why Coombes shouldn't be in the Irish 23 (personally I would be earmarking him as a future Irish captain considering his intelligence, work rate, and presence-very rare to find a in a forward besides POC). Omahoney, Coombes, and van der flier to start, Doris on the bench, return Conan to his club

Andy Farrell seems to have taken Joe Schmidt's way of playing and stepped it up a notch. Now the guys to play side to side but because of quick offloads they have increased momentum hugely. Not waiting for opposition to get into the ruck and then play, they try and play before the ruck even has time to form. Also I don't think England could have expected to win from only kicking penalties.

[@bill4665]

you're kidding yourself. Ireland are the better side, but they are not better in every way. Ireland have not put in a 80 minute 14-man match shift. Ireland are a well drilled side, better than England. But the fact England can keep this match as a competition for 70 minutes with one man down is very impressive. The problem with Ireland is that every player is integeral to their plan, they would never survive as long as England did with 14 men bcs the missing player would remove the flow and fast nature of their game. England on the other hand have talents like Smith, Steward, and Arundell to keep the flair and creativity alive. The Smith and Steward link-ups are something that Ireland cannot match, bcs the Smith and Steward link ups arent part of Englands plan, its just two incredibly talented players showing their understanding of one another. Regardless Ireland is clear of England atm, but some of the flaws of England actually mean that they can last longer and play better with only 14 men than most other teams in the world.

really strange for me as a neutral- there's alot of vitriol coming from the Irish fans rather than the England ones in these comments and its pretty stifling when someone has anything positive to say about an England performance (that any lay fan knows wasn't good enough). I saw Ireland's match stats against Wales last year and they deserved to win so credit to them, don't think anyone other than the media and the odd crazy England fan would believe England deserved anything less than a bashing. Not one fan I've seen has disagreed that much about the Ewels tackle- it just comes from the frustration of just how early the red came (earliest in England international or not for 30 odd years i think) . And as the for the stadium fans - think thats exactly the same problem, they were a) frustrated with the early red which completely ruins the game itself (irish fans can't disagree considering how much they rate their teams performance)let alone their chances of winning it + this is the second week (fairly mind) that this has happened. B)if your home team goes down a man in the first two minuites- as home fans the psychological default is to back them even more- this is a fucking sport at the end of the day and your damn right the fans are gunna stand up for their home team when their backs are against the wall and I don't think it bared any sort of resentment against Ireland players in particular. To say that England fans are literally worse people is stupid- I've honestly seen this kind of fan reaction at every stadium in the six nations (I mean ahem any one been to the Stade Francias in the last couple of years ahahah ? ) Ireland deserved to win. They definitely man shamed England especially in the closing 30 mins and anyone whose seen a leinster game this year would no this is nothing to do with England being a man down. Scrummaging reffing was poor but not that bad guys- I just think the England pack were overcompensating on aggression and at times it made a world class irish pack look genuinely vulnerable for how good they are as individuals. But at the end of the day- cchhhiiilll the fuuuuccckk out duuuddde. You won. No one's contesting it. No ones denying you a great victory over the English at home. Irish fans are just trying to manifest that England are terrible fans -well just take a look in the mirror fellas, and realise you don't need to be aggressive when you've just won- stop listening to the press and be humble and satisfied with your own opinions of the game.

Wtf is this.. Ireland vs England in australia Oct 2022

[@amantedellopera1681]

Very exciting game fair play to england brave performance,but thats were it stops,scrum aside and very dubious dark arts employed,they offered nothing in attack,dont think ireland were troubled once to any degree as england never got near scoring a try,if they want to beat france kicking penalties wont be enough.at least ireland attacked from all over the field,yes we fluffed at least 3 trys that better handling would have ensured,but at least we showed invention,england cant use the 14 man excuse,it was a straight red no arguments,when o mahony went off 11 mins in v wales,ireland like england got even better,the difference was we still scored trys and only lost by 5 or 6 points,whatever about irelands chances in world cup,england will need an attacking game plan which as now they dont have

That wasn't a Red Card, pure accident. I'm Irish but Mario Itoje is a Prince

[@Spoof01]

Personally I think you should be able to replace a red card after 20 minutes, obviously there is no such thing as a accidental head clash anymore. I'm not a pommy fan either!

[@brianfeltham-daniels905]

The IRB are discussing this currently. I don't think you can completely wreck a perfectly good game of rugby over an accidental clash of heads - it's madness!

[@inBODwetrust13]

Nothing accidental about it. The ball was long gone and Ewels took Ryan out of the game. Ewels shouldn’t play again until Ryan is able to

@@inBODwetrust13 how about replace a red card after 20 minutes so it doesn't spoil the game for the fans who have paid big money to watch 15 v 15? Players are human and make mistakes

@@Spoof01 no. That just encourages teams to target key players. Ryan missed the rest of the game and was a huge miss for Ireland. He hasn't played since.

I think missing a man would have made no difference Irish would have won butess points

[@almcdonald8676]

England Missing a man certainly gave Ireland an advantage. That’s simply logic. However it may well have paradoxically put pressure on Ireland and caused them to fumble some of those early chances

I have seen Ireland missing a man and still beat England ,so it wasn't that it was irish where. Better. And never like to the auld enemy England

[@rayfox6554]

For people who do not understand the game of Rugby sanctions. Sanctions for being sent off must be much harsher. This was a ready-made excuse for England. Everyone is missing the real point of the sending off and it is time to replace players sent off, to deliberately to take out and injure an opponent is premeditation and besides anything else, it is assault and a criminal offence. If a player wants to risk destroying his carrier by intentionally committing a dangerous play he should never play the game again. And his club should be closed down for a period of time. Replacing sent off players is already used in Super Rugby which you did not know. No one can give a good reason why replacing the sent of players should not be used. It's common sense really

There will always be head bangs in this sport but we are in danger of ruining this sport if we keep doing this. How was it reckless and not accidental? It was neither intentional or malicious and the refs need to be able to ref that. We have seen several games ruined by this as we are fecking it being a genuine contest.
