FT: WALES 25 - 7 IRELAND. Grand Slam winners
Decent start to the game, 13 nil half hour gone but fiercely competitive. That Alan Wyn Jones is a beast.
Can anyone throw some light on the roof situation though.
Surely the whole point of spending millions on one is to make the playing and watching conditions as good as possible :shrug:

Like what? Click on a thread about rugby and post on it? More than once? :hehe:

Ironic considering the conditions and how Ireland didn’t cope with them.

I didn’t realise that there was a rule that you were only allowed to post on certain topics. Lol

Wales up to second in the world now. You go through all sorts of scenarios in the days leading to a game like today's, but I never came up with one that had Wales winning as comfortably as that. By the end, I was getting so greedy that I was disappointed to see Ireland avoid getting "nilled". Ideally, Wales would have been a more exciting side to watch, but I think they proved themselves to be the best side in the tournament and well done to the much criticised Anscombe for a deserved man of the match award.

:thumbup: personally I thought AWJ was motm but can see why anscombe had it impeccable goal kicking, the best part was to see all the players who are out injured the strength in depth we have is awesome we just need to make sure Adam beard is always playing :hehe:

He was also saying at HT that the players were rightly upset by many of the refereeing decisions.
See my earlier post regarding what gives me more pleasure :biggrin:

Yes I get that but let's be honest, the conditions made the quality of rugby poor especially 2nd half. Ironically they made a comeback virtually impossible for Ireland.
The game, which struggles to attract interest these days, should be promoting covering the pitches.

That’s always been a shit argument. 21 football World Cup finals, with almost every country on the planet involved and there have only been 8 different winners
Only been 7 rugby world cups, with a lot fewer countries involved than football but there’s already benen 4 different winners. 😎
