    Brilliant. England finally get a penalty, take the quick tap, spins a wide pass to Genge in the middle of the field, who takes it straight up the guts and is tackled by Curry before he hits the defence.

    Ireland were in disarray, backpedaling and down to 14 men.

    🤦

    Greatness is high standards and consistency. Based on that, this is not a great England side.

    Fair play to Ireland though, had a poor start but finished strongly.

    Sums them up perfectly - all their problems are in their heads. They have no ability to do anything other than go smash and go all disruptive

    Worst England performance since RWC2015, for me.

    Shambolic, ill-disciplined, nil leadership and no rugby smarts whatsoever.

    Do England have a forward leader?

    Looks like Maro Itoje has been captain since Owen Farrell went off.

    Now Genge thinks it's tough to talk smack to Sexton and continue on even after the ref told him to calm down. What a mong.

    Dumbest performance I've seen by an international team for a long time.

    Sexton has been great today. Really impressive performance.

    He really is a dick.

    That period just before Murray was binned sums up everything that’s wrong with England - man up with lots of space out wide to walk it in. Instead they slow it right down so they can pick and go straight into the teeth of the Irish forwards 😬

    Jonny May scores a consolation try. His 33rd for England. 32-18.

    When was the last time England lost to Scotland, Wales and Ireland in the same 5/6 Nations tournament?

    Dubious red card, but not that it mattered.

    England at the mo are too much brawn and not enough brain. Reckon Jones’s goose is cooked.

    They don’t need a coach to teach them how to bully the opposition - that’s just their DNA. They need someone like Jones to add other skills. He’s not done that he’s just made them even more English.

    @junior Jason Ryles, an Aussie League player and the England skills coach, has been in Oz for the last few months because of the Covid siutation and has missed the last few months. Ed Robinson, ex-England coach Andy's son, has replaced him. Looks like Ryles was a big loss for them.
