If that was the case David, France would've got relegated in 2013. Imagine that! Unreal.

I can understand why he is not playing ringrose but this game would be perfect to start McCloskey in

Think joe should have put Payne at full back and Gary Ringrose at 13. Team selection doesn't really excite me. That pack has me quite nervous! Think this game may be lost in the breakdown.

link the two competitions, the loser of ours gets relegated winner of theirs gets promoted.

Time Georgia and Romania join this tournament.

think it is safe to say we are underdogs but that's when we play better

Exciting team if nothing else, stander will wreck havoc and Zebo is pretty polar, either fantastic or non existent. Earls should be exciting as well, good under the high ball even if he is on the smaller side. I'd say it's all to play for myself

Well we are ******. Madness. Payne FB mccloskey centre. We are back to the players that failed. Hay ho lets go Ireland

Don't want to speak to soon but I think Ireland's old pack is there for the taking without Henderson, SOB, Healy & POM.
If Anscombe & James stand up to the arial assault from Ireland I don't really see Ireland testing Wales defence. Wales by 6-10

and furlong instead of white
