Yeesh. Hope she recovers well

From the image I’ve just seen, it looks like a bad ankle break.

Like Rowland at 15.
Fabulous looking side with the added bonus of Aldcroft back in it.

[Mr Mwenda]

Effortless clear of a kick, absorb five phases, win penalty, driving maul try.

[Mr Mwenda]

Ireland bugger up a lineout, England rampage and score again.

Tmo comes in to save the day.

[Mr Mwenda]

Pushover try, 10-0. Lots of errors from England. Ireland a class below in everything, sadly.

[Mr Mwenda]

Ireland pur some phases together despite being ragdolled. Won a penalty kick and missed it horribly in front of the posts.

[Mr Mwenda]

So many errors, the worst I've seen the red roses play in a while.

[Mellsblue]

Just got back from coaching the local minis. Seems like Ire are holding their own, going by the scoreboard?

[Mellsblue]

Ireland no22 with a high tackle on Infante first? All, erm, handbags, though.

[Mr Mwenda]

Just got back from coaching the local minis. Seems like Ire are holding their own, going by the scoreboard?

Yes, but they've done nothing at all. England blowing things left, right and centre.

I'd say Ireland are getting a few sympathy calls from the ref now, exacerbating England's inaccuracies at the breakdown.

[Mr Mwenda]

Ireland no22 with a high tackle on Infante first? All, erm, handbags, though.

Very peculiar set of decisions. Just needed to retake the penalty.

[Mellsblue]

England blowing things left, right and centre.

and continue to do so.

[Mr Mwenda]

10-0 is a crazy close score all things considered.

[Mr Mwenda]

England blowing things left, right and centre.

and continue to do so.

Reset needed. That last crossfield attempt summed it up.

[Mr Mwenda]

Better already. However the first half had similarly effortless start.

Packer can now add wing to her list of positions she plays.

[Mellsblue]

I’d give a pen only for that but given the current framework….

[Mr Mwenda]

I’d give a pen only for that but given the current framework….

Yeah, not malicious but seems odd given the way that has been referreed lately. I'm guessing that's breach's game over after all....

[Mellsblue]

England blowing things left, right and centre.

and continue to do so.

Reset needed. That last crossfield attempt summed it up.

Still incredibly sloppy.

[Mellsblue]

Helena Rowland with a world class pass for that try.

[Mr Mwenda]

Yup, highlight of the game.

[Mr Mwenda]

Irish backs look more like sevens players to me.
