To answer your question, I'd happily accept a defensive performance and hope to pinch a win. I wouldn't accept Cardiff players intentionally elbowing, headbutting etc.
neither would I. if that's all they have to offer then they shouldn't be playing.

the Irish tactics were a result of them being an inferior team in all departments on the pitch. if they played defensively and won, then so be it. but it was the manner in which they played which left a poor taste in the mouth
