Half time here in Ashbourne and Wales are leading Ireland by 6 points to 3. After an impressive first 25 minutes by the away side, Ireland have since dominated the rest of the half and were able to put points on the board just before thew half time whistle went. The weather conditions here tonight are awful but for this half Ireland will now have the wind at their back so they will look to use this to their advantage.

Come on Ireland!
