[QUOTE="dullonien, post: 181251"] Was very impressed by Wales today. For once I wasn't a nervous wreck in the last 10 minutes with the game in the balance. I had complete faith in the forewards to close that game out, one of the main areas Wales have improved in. Our defence was also exceptional, with that Phillips try saving tackle an absolute masterpiece. We bossed that game for 60 minutes, the other 20, we looked very comfertouble (minus the Horgan break). We can actually defend driving mauls at last!!!! Thought Phillips was slightly unlucky with the Yellow, stupid thing to do, but wasn't any malice in it, just unpacience. Can't say the same for Jackman, whose challange was alot worse, Ryan Jones, was sitting nowhere neer the ball, hands in the air, reckless. Both should have got yellows, would have been happy then. Shane really is amazing at the momet. He filled in very well at scrum half, has a knack of creating holes for others with his passing, his try was also well taken. Henson has an excellent game, outclassing both Irish centres, he's just solid (and there's alot more to come imo) Ireland didn't look themselves today. O'gara, Reddan and Kearney were their only good players today, their forewards were going backwards or nowhere the entire match. They just lacked any cutting edge, pitty in a way, I'm just a big fan of Irish rugby at it's best, hope to seeing them getting back to their best soon. One more thing, re the scrum v forum thing. That is the worst forum ever, every thread just turns into a Wales or England bashing contest, with very few members just f***ing it up completely for everyone else. [/QUOTE]
