[2019 Six Nations] Wales v Ireland (16/03/2019)

Looking for positives, Ireland are making breaks so they need to keep trying.
 
That's a big loss.

Don't particularly rate North but that one injury turns into a 3 man switchup in the back alignment
 
Biggar at 10, Anscombe at 15 might actually be alright when the heavens open. Biggar has a far better Gary Owen than Anscombe.
 
If AWJs leg fell off he would magic sponge it and tape it back on! Watching him he can hardly walk but is still winning lineouts and carrying hard!
 
There was no release in that turnover, but they missed a neckroll on Ryan by Navidi a couple of rucks before so swings and roundabouts
 
AWJ doesn't look good. As the commentators said he rarely stays down unless he's actually injured. If he can't run it off then it could kill Wales' momentum.
 
I still dont get why Wales dont have someone like Amos on the bench for times like this. We lose one of the worlds best 15s out to wing and Ascombe isnt as defensively aware.
