Pre-RWC test matches
-
England made 95% of their tackles in the first half, Ireland only 64%.
-
Ireland lost three out of six lineouts in the first half. Great disruption of the Irish throw by Itoje.
England only gave away one penalty. Eddie Jones will be delighted by that level of organisation and discipline.
-
England running riot.
Ireland very much second best.
Forward pass for Itoje's try. Good line though.
-
Itoje with the try. 29-10.
Big statement from England today.
-
Kruis scores. 36-10. England out of sight. Ireland not at the races today.
-
That should have been a yellow against Tuilagi.
Just can't help himself.
-
Tom Curry in for a try. Ireland are being bullied by England's super physical game. England are making the passes stick.
43-10 with 23 minutes to go.
-
Best Rugby performance I've seen all year.

I didn't see anything wrong with it.

@sparky I agree the officials had a look. They thought it was ok. That's sufficient, no?

If that's the new directive / standard, then fair enough.
But we all know it isn't.
He led with his right shoulder and made contact with his right shoulder with his left arm low and slow like he'd broken it.
9 times out of 10 it's a yellow.

England win against Ireland by a record margin 57-15. They scored eight tries.
