Match Thread @rugby quick points for Ireland, but England respond with a very dominant line up of 4 on 2 from a very forceful carry and it's almost too easy, looks like a bit of up front physicality upended Ireland's focus for a minute.
@rugby #Rugby #6Nations #ENGvIRE Some good set piece from England, good hands, carries are powerful, and good thinking ball from Jamie George to not try to go all by himself. Ireland need to continue soaking this energy and monitor if it has staying power, just play the long game and wipe up in the second period of this half.

And here we are. Some might say Ireland haven't attacked much. I'd say they didn't need to.
England threw every ounce of energy they had at a relatively solid green wall, and wasted an opportunity or two.
With a few minutes to go, we are 8-9 and I'd have to assume Ireland have spent half as much sweat and oxygen.
England have owned the physicality, the dominance in contact, but down by a point.
@rugby 4 minutes into the half and Ireland put a very reasonable try on the board. It's not the prettiest most exciting stuff to watch, but it's getting the job done.

Wow.
Marcus Smith doinks a last gasp drop goal and England win by one point.
Call it however you want, England delivered.
back to back Grand Slam dream over, and some lessons learned I reckon.
#WALvFRA tomorrow so we can all sit back and watch in a slightly less frenetic fashion.
