That ref was ******* abismal - the only way irish won because they were enabled to constantly high tackle, not roll away, stand up in scrums 3/4 times in a row with no consequence and go offside and in at the side at the rucks. And the ref gave an ridiculous yellow card to England :0 I;d be fine if the Irish won on the back of playing well or because England played badly, it's just so disappointing and embarassing for rugby in general. Irish should be ashamed at that win and that ref should be taken outside and shot.

I suppose from an England point of view it exemplifies the need for a GOOD centre partnership and some proper experience - Wilko should have really started today because that backline looked completely lost. Hape should be taken outside and shot as well, he cannot cannot cannot be in the world cup squad.
