Laptop: check.

Cup of tea: check.

A resurgent Wales able to beat Ireland away: hmm, I swear I left that somewhere...

Who's watching #IREvWAL #Rugby ?

If we can go three minutes without being scored against, that's a win in my book.
Show threadjaz  Mar 6

5 minutes 30.

Yup.

Show threadjaz  Mar 6
Knock-on, no?
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
Ref sees it. Disallowed.
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
Phew, good relief on that pressure, very different to be only 7 down right now.
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
Oh very nice play from Wales from a quick lineout. Clearly some coaching to drill a bunch of kicks today, been a few grubbers probing for touch.
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
Take. The. Three.
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
That's a bunch of very nice work from #Wales
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
Take. The. Three.
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
Oh my.
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
Well, force another penalty now.
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
Ach.
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
Good grief some big hits today.
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
Cheeky offload.

"Must hook the ball"

What's next, requiring a straight put-in at the scrum?

Anyone else breathless right now? Pace on this match is intense.

Very solid defense from #Wales these past 30 minutes, impressive discipline. Gibson-Park back on.
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
Ohhhhhh lovely stuff, intercepted.
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
#Ireland no question dominant here, but only 7-3 on the board, speaks to defense and big tackles.
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
Solid work from #Wales but just can't keep that up forever, #Ireland cross for 5. 12-3 with a minute or two to go. Respectable scoreline but will Wales have the fitness to keep this up?
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
110 tackles made by #Wales this half. That's almost 3 a minute.
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
Oh. My. What the actual. What did I just see?
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
@greub will have a video replay I'm guessing...
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
Looks grounded to me
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
Gibson-Park knowing exactly where to stand.
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
Oh so close.
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
Mucky lineout. Hesitant maul.
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
Holy daffodils I get a minute to catch my breath.

Interesting Welsh formation behind this scrum...
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
Welsh pressure fast becoming Irish frustration.
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
TTTTTTTRRRRRRYYYYYY Wales
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
I think that's the first mark of the match
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
Greasy wriggle from Edwards getting out of the try zone there.
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
Massive work from Ireland but they look too tired to celebrate the try.
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
12 minutes to go. Oh wow, missed conversion means 7 point gap, but #Wales down to 14. It's a pell mell crazy game. So much going on.
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
How is Carre not up for man of the match?
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
Well that's probably game, but wow, what a match! Unreal spectacle today.
Show threadjaz  Mar 6
Whew. That was not the match #Ireland was expecting. Excellent #rugby from both sides, fantastic 80 minutes, entertaining and powerful stuff. Best match I've seen in some time. #M6N #6Nations continues to be such a unique tournament. Wowie weewah. What a match!

@Snakey07 @jaz I only watched the highlights, but it was nice to watch a match where Wales had a faint glimmer of hope for a brief period.
1091 days since the last Six Nations match win. 😭
