England just completely outplayed Ireland. They may have scraped home on the scoreboard but performance wise it was much deserved.
They should have won by 20 plus, they were that much better.
I’d have agreed with you at the time but how wrong was this?

I said it more in jest after the Everton game
I get that but I wasn’t having a go anyway, I’d have agreed with you.
It was more me just expressing surprise at how good, and different compared to normal, England were today. Hopefully we can see a bit more of that going forward cause I thought they were exceptional.

Agree, they are slowly but surely getting a good identity again. Along with the grit they are playing confident rugby.
Hopefully consistency will come but we have a very strong 15, individually, along with some extremely good young players coming through.

The fact that they didn't just shows how good Ireland are. The best teams in any sport stay in games and sneak wins, regardless of performance levels, on another day they may have done.
In the past few years England would have let them but there is a belief building in this England team.
you lads are correct, my bad
Superb performance from England and a really sub-par display from Ireland. England found a performance from somewhere, I'd say that is probably their best game in 2 or 3 years.
It actually would've been a travesty if the hadn't of won it. Yet despite that, if Murray hadnt of kicked possession away with 30 or 40 seconds left, Ireland probably would've gone through a couple of phases and saw the game out.
Couple of performances caught the eye, England's back line was very good. Borthwick should persist with it. I thought O'Mahony had one of his worst games in an Ireland shirt, summed up perfectly by an idiotic penalty and yellow card. I'd actually drop him for the Scottish game and say goodnight.
I thought Alex Mitchell caused Ireland’s midfield all sorts of problems, his speed of thought is impressive. Chessum and Earl were outstanding as well. For Ireland Van Der Flier and Aki really had good games but McCarthy was anonymous really and the 6-2 split ddint work yesterday after 2 injuries to backs. I'd hope there is a big reaction next week, which there almost certainly will be.
It'll be interesting to see if England can back that performance up in France next week.

I quite enjoyed events after 2.30.
They had a penalty in waiting.
Poor game management. Didn't understand why he did that.
If Wales win here, this would have to be up there with the most unexpected weekends of 6 Nations ever

France have played this tournament like they have been operating without a brain. No one has stepped up to command and lead.
I think it’s imperative for Wales to keep scrums to a minimum though, that French pack is absolutely huge
