[QUOTE="Leonormous Boozer, post: 923231, member: 45598"] We haven't won in Cardiff since 2013 (and that was simply because Wales didn't show up) I think Ireland are comfortably the better side as the 5 ranking point gap would suggest but a riled up Welsh side in Cardiff is definitely our biggest challenge of the 6n considering we have England and France in Dublin where we don't really lose. You very nearly had us in Dublin with little enough possession last time, scoring tries quickly is the way to beat Ireland, we've become similar to NZ in being very good at giving up threes to stop sevens but Wales are a team that can and often have beaten us in games where all stats would suggest we should have won.
