France were clueless in the end, ran out of ideas. But Ireland do what they always do well, play in the opposition half and make teams make mistakes. Take nothing away from Ireland, but I don’t think they were brilliant by any means.
I dont really understand what you're saying. Ireland led wire to wire. France didnt implode, they had a 5 mins spell at the end of the 1st half. Ireland controlled that game very well.
 
I had Gibson - Park as my man of the match, he just kept the game moving forward all the tine. He has something no other scrum half has in the 6N , all the rest faff about getting players in the right position, he just fizzes the ball around , keeps the momentum going.
Joe McCarthy was excellent, but maybe an easier ride tonight with one of his opposite numbers being red carded gave him a bit more breathing space. It’s rare for back to back Grand Slams to occur but on paper that was Ireland’s hardest game and it’s certainly on again, a great performance from them.
 

Brilliant performance. Controlled the game, the winning margin was a indication of Irelands dominance. winning like that in Marseille is a real statement of intent.
McCarthy probably deserved motm, Gibson park superb as well.
Yip, the last time the French got steamrolled like that on home soil was probably when they got blitzkrieged in 1940...

A great point, tbf to McCarthy he was immense and stood out before the red.
