When I went to Dublin to watch the Women’s Rugby World Cup in 2017, there was a crowd of about 1,000.

Today, over 77,000 turned up to watch.

That is progress.

A fine result on a fine day out.

TBF a decent result for Ireland. Lots of good stuff to build on. If they can cut out the handling errors and secure the ball better in contact they can take a big step forward next time out.

And congratulations England on a deserved win.

FT. ENG 33 IRE 12

The closest scoreline between these two sides in decades. England looked like World Champions in the first half but took their foot off the gas in the second. Ireland were scrappy but first half errors were an issue. They left it late with two tries in the end.

There are plenty green shoots in this. BIG big game experience, for a start. Some strengths to build on, some things to work on.
England will not be beaten this tournament so there are very achievable aspirations to realise.
As Les Kiss used to say, ‘Time to deliver’ 💪

Not a great match, very stop-start, reffing awful. Move along #ENGvIRE

Obviously this game's been done for a while but we've stuck in it, we've not thrown in the towel, we've not let it completely get away from us like I worried we might.

IRISH TRY! A well worked maul by the forwards, Lane pulls it out and offloads to McGann. She whirls over the line with just inches to spare or she’d be out of bounds.

Was nice while it lasted.

We've kept Kildunne quiet for most of the game but we finally allow her a bit of space and that's that.

Horrible flashback to that Elliot Daly try against Wales in 2017 there.

Missed left footed kick to touch, two long passes left for the touchdown in the corner.

i mean, a comparably far-weaker ireland team hanging in 28-5 (fuck, 33-5), is pretty damned decent.

Terrific finish from McGann! Incredible strength to stay infield after an excellent maul from Ireland. Needed that! COYGIG

Wafer goes off. Quiet day from her, we've not spent enough time on the ball to have been able to get her into this game at all.

Spectacular score by Breach. Nice little chop by Jones to open up the foot race.

There’s the bonus point.

Aargh that's a killer. Been defending like demons, finally get a bit of time on the ball, and then suddenly England are back under our posts. We're starting to look a bit shattered tbh.

What a steal by Ireland!! England looked inevitable there.

Fun fact. The small device on the referees waist is a wireless extender for the electric mouth guards. They weren’t getting enough signal throughout the field so the referee is the “booster”.

Ireland are far less than I expected or hoped for.
Whether England's score is due to English skill or Irish collapse is debatable.

Disappointing number of errors from Ireland in that 1st half. Although it's such a step up from the Celtic Challenge maybe that is to be expected. #W6N #EngVIre
