Brett can you explain your thinking on the ref #KarlDickson penalising Ireland for not Hooking?
I watched all the matches this weekend and none of the hookers hooked.? But only 1 penalised #WorldRugby #IREvWAL #6Nations
On Sunday mornings we share our notes from our feature match #IREvWAL on Substack, including real-time screengrabs from our WhatsApp group throughout - this week with added reactions after #SCOvFRA & #ITAvENG > jeffpagano.substack.com/p/ireland-v-...
Macron and the WRU pay tribute to Quasar Laser Tag at Barry Island with this incredibly classy, well designed and very dignified rugby jersey for Wales U20s. #IREvWAL
Looking forward to the Championship #6Nations game in #Dublin next week. Fantastic #Scotland win at home against the unbeatable French!! #6N Rugby as the French and English will tell you is a hard place to win on the road. #SCOvFRA #IREvWAL #ITAvENG #IREvSCO
Loius Bielle-Carre best nickname ive seen so far for the big man #IREVWAL
Ireland v Wales - post match analysis #IREvWAL #SixNationsRugby . Another game won by the team with the better 22m Efficiency.
Re watched the first half there. Ringrose, Furlong and Stockdale all much better than my immediate feeling after the match. Doris and Beirne typically very busy #IREvWAL #IRLvWAL
Watching Joe McCarthy is like they invented the perfect rugby player in a laboratory and then gave it a mullet. #IREvWAL #sixnations
#IREvWAL reckon that's the worst match I've ever seen for teams under the high ball. A litany of jumping underneath it, slapping it forward, confusion etc on repeat
Credit to Ire, generally were first to the scraps.
But that's like crediting my dog for shitting on the laminate not the rug.
Weirdly, Ireland's win yesterday got me worried. When they lost in France and won trickily against Italy, there were undeniable circumstances and there were improvements. Somehow last night they went massively backwards in every aspect of the game. Scrums, rucks, collisions... #IREWAL #IREvWAL
Rhys Carre making the only break against a much rotated Ireland tells you everything you need to know. Wales need to learn their place for their own good. #IREvWAL

There will a heap of changes no doubt for Scot.but def wanna see Doak in the 23 . Totally deserved on season form and tonight #IREVWAL #IREVSCO
Think I'm loving the appreciation of the game by both players, coaches and pundits #IREvWAL
Tough evening..sounds patronising AF but credit to Wales..v physical and made the ruck a massive battle..way too much overplaying between 10m from Ire but roll on next week #IREVWAL
Honestly not sure how Ireland got a BP win there, but #COYBIG. There were moments of pure magic, but so much grind and visionless play. And the place kicking... But hey, onwards! #M6N #IREvWAL
"but there are still questions hanging..."
<turns TV off>
Great game!
Great competition!

Watching #IREvWAL reminded of Tim's soliloquy in The Office
"Life isn't about endings, is it? It's a series of moments.
It's like, if you turn the camera off, it's not an ending, is it? I'm still here. My life's not over.
Come back in ten years.
See how I'm doing then."
I hate how likable Dewi Lake and some of this Welsh team seem to be cause some of you on here don't deserve that likeability from me frankly #IREvWAL
Good stuff from Wales .. Indifferent enough by Ireland, but a win is a win.. Scotland won't be scared of us in the Triple Crown decider next week... #IREVWAL
Genuinely nice to see Dewi Lake give a post-match interview without looking like he’s on the verge of breaking down in tears. Plenty to be positive about this week.
#IREvWAL
I know it’s not the norm for the player of the match to be from the losing side.
But Alex Mann was absolutely brilliant for Wales. #IREvWAL
