So it all starts today.

Really worried how we(Wales) are going to fair, 7 loses on the bounce plus injuries and new caps doesn't fill me with confidence for the championship.

COME ON YOU RED MEN!!

Lovely bit of juggling in the lead up to that try.

Wales are all over the place.

Deleted user 2 February 2013 14:05:54

Ireland have just been so much better in every area.

Um. I was expecting a big response from Wales there. Not from Ireland!

(

Wales are looking at a cricket score defeat unless they can turn things round pretty darn quick.
And something tells me they can't. But I've been wrong before.

Come on boys!!!

Deleted user 2 February 2013 14:43:26

That's more like it. A game at last.

Deleted user 2 February 2013 14:43:31

Attack is actually pretty decent, it's the defence that is appalling. Also, Ireland are really slowing things down, have been all game, fair enough I say but the amount of "professional" play is a bit irritating as a Welshman :-)

Bit of fire in the Welsh team now.
It ain't over 'til the fat lady sings...

Hehe, I stand corrected-hadn't been paying attention and assumed it could only be Rhys :-)

Fuck me, I wish I was a neutral for this.

Deleted user 2 February 2013 15:01:14

Quite a difference between how difficult the Welsh tries were in comparison to the Irish ones.

Deleted user 2 February 2013 15:08:38

Game over now I reckon, the lack of points since the sin bin is pretty poor, although it may well make a difference towards the end.

Deleted user 2 February 2013 15:10:58

Since the first minute we've been poor, Ireland completely dominant other than 5-10 mins after the break.

Ireland look like a bloody good side this year.

I don't know, the last 20 we've been all over Ireland.

Goodness me! That's probably it - Irish win.

I think you're right Brem.

Looks like everybody's forgotten that Heaslip's captain.

Shame about the result, but cracking game.

I'm predicting England to win by at least 10 points.

Deleted user 2 February 2013 15:32:05

O'Driscoll's still the man!

Yeah, cracking 2nd half.

Yeah, I spoke too soon there! Decent 2nd half performance but left ourselves far too much to do after an abject 1st half showing.

Yet another Welsh post Slam collapse. Don't worry though, you lot will have another in 2015 probably.

Deleted user 2 February 2013 15:50:48

'you lot'? Who is 'you lot'?

Deleted user 2 February 2013 15:51:09

That second half gives me hope. It took so much effort in defence from Ireland. They were very good at that too, so fair play to the Irish, probably deserved it in the end. I do wish Wales didn't always do everything the hard way and if there is a defence in the world that doesn't know that we're going to pass it as wide as possible to open up space I'd be surprised. I'm only complaining of just how predictable it is, need to mix it up a bit now and again!

What a thoroughly nice bloke Scott Johnson is. Such a shame, then, that we're going to bury Scotland under the Twickers turf this afternoon!
