We'd rather you moved out of them 6 countries you robed of us back in the day
I think a leprechaun couldn’t make proper shoes for his sportsman
Haha lol you Irish bastards got tought a lesson in this years 6nations we thrashed you
The Ireland v England game of 2017 was a classic of how not to play rugby union. If a coach doesn't know that the greatest teams in history won because they kept the ball and attacked which did several things. Teams who attack are in a position to score a try or get a penalty kick. Defending teams are more likely to give away a penalty or get injured. This isn't rocket science, this has been known since the 1970's. Why do rugby union teams give the ball away by kicking it too the opponents. That is crazy and doesn't make sense. Would an ice hockey team give the puck away to their opponents. No way they would. The attacking team are more likely to score and if they are winning they run the clock down. Keeping the ball in any sport has to be a major advantage. I do not get how a coach could endorse giving the ball to the other team. It's crazy. Haha.
England being outplayed and outclassed by a better team. Glad to see the Irish playing good rugby with so many ideas on the pitch. Small up and under kicks and running so many channels in attack. England as always relying on big forwards to do the damage and glad to see they got what they deserve. Scotland played the same as Ireland did to England too and played creative rugby and they sent him home to think again.
Same again please
well done ireland get them in feb 2th keep them out of your half kick ball and all time ad they are out to get us keep thein their half 25 …13 irland
just refreshing my memory ahead of another victory over England, this time we'll be nice and kill their hopes and dreams immediately rather than later on
SPL – it's 'you're' not 'your' Someone ought to learn you to speak more better! Where did you go to school,Ballygobackwards?! Whale oil beef hooked
Well done I love you sooooooooooooooooooooooooo much I wish I could met you
looking forward to the 2nd of feb
'Ireland will strive…………..is evident that you will fail again' – with English like that, are you old enough to own a computer ?!
Make the most of it, all you tallywackers over there on the Emerald Isle, as with a rejuvenated England, it will be a different result next month. You will also struggle against the taffys
St. Patrick was a Brit from Cumbria, England and his color was not green but blue!… How many people know that?
4:35 Daly is a thug
Did he just call it a touchdown it's a try
I'd forgotten how great that Daly try was, in all the hullabaloo. Fair dues.
Ireland should rename themselves the “Conor Murray Show”
2 grand slam titles in ren years not that bad
Ireland great. England shit. Same old story for >50 years. England shit
Fuk ireland they cant even beat the mighty pumus in the world cup
400th
Tiocfairdh la
Daly, pure class. He's got that little bit of arrogance that makes him interesting but not too much.
Reading these comments is a joke.. People say that the English are arrogant, but most of the comments here are Irish fans slating the English for being arrogant, in a far more aggressive and ungraceful manner, than I've seen English fans say.
To be honest, I wouldn't say there's a difference between the English, and any other nation when it comes down to being arrogant, people always say that to make themselves feel better, but in reality, they are no better, and that is being showcased in true fashion in this comment section.
Irish rugby is now officially up at the top with NZ OZ and SA ,the rest are like the championship in soccer terms, for such a tiny pool of players to choose from ( probably half a million adult males) its comical. It proves you don't have to be a big country with a huge population to succeed, all you need is a small bunch of guys with a heart the size of a country and that's what we have in our beautiful green isle, . Rest of the world "learn from the Irish" . I reckon we'll take the all blacks in November by 5 pts
GET RID OF THESE MUTHAFUCKING ADS ALREADY!!!
England don't care about rugby only sticking their hands up Irish girls skirts. If I was Ireland I just wouldn't engage with England at any level.
Just when the English get chalk full of themselves, the Irish come along and settle their hash.
I love this game!
Well done us, spirit of the Irish
Why are they wearing shoulder pads? (Ireland)
Please. Don't do that soccer prancing and olay olay olay. This is rugby. This is proper sport. Don't let yourselves down with that crap
trouble is we let in 3 trys and our defence is still not right even in club level
Also you forgot to mention that england fans were booing their own team
