Fantastic, going to smash dry January tomorrow night.
Still struggling to decide, I mean Ireland are a very very good side but France seemed really poor tonight.
I thought France looked very ring rusty and never got any better as the match went on. Not the excitement fest I was hoping for....
I just thought it was very dominant from Ireland at key times. Some massive performances, back row and locks were immense.
Tournament over realistically.
And I can see England having a tough game this weekend as well. The battle for the wooden spoon could be quite closely run!

Sadly, I think Wales are favourites to come last this year ☹️
Today is going to be so miserable. Living in Scotland, I'd rather lose to Italy than Scotland.
There is no way Wales should win today. Scotland should come and win by 30+ points. However, Scotland have a special 'super power' in ****ing things up in Cardiff - that is the only slither of hope I can cling onto.
Just watched the 6 minute highlights of the 2014 game, where Hogg got sent off for his cheap shot on Biggar - 53 : 3 🤞🤞🤞😜

that, and the roof being closed - hopefully we can sing them into implosion
I guess it’s happened before, but I haven’t seen it. I think Willemse managed to get a yellow and a red card did he?
The first yellow stayed yellow but the second was upgraded to a red?

I thought it was 2nd yellow = a red
I'm currently watching the Wales v Scotland U20's game on iPlayer. Half-time and it's a cracking game so far. Very evenly matched. The U20 games are often a good watch, there's a good pace to them. Some great skills on show and some promising looking players on both sides.

I think he got the first red because he got the 2nd yellow. The 2nd yellow then got upgraded to a red in its own right. So it was one yellow and one red instead of two yellows and therefore a red.
Although I'm not sure why the first one wasn't a straight red.

Ever since 2010 I've been waking up in the middle of the night screaming, 'No, Shane, no! Why!!??'
I’ll be at Páirc Uí Chaoimh for the Munster v Crusaders game this afternoon. Both teams missing their best players but should still be a top day out. There were a few Crusaders fans on our flight last night but the stadium will be very red. Forecast also not for thick Munster rain/mist so should be able to see the whole pitch which makes a change!

Agreed. I’m hoping to take my boy to see England v Ireland at the Rec in Bath. Their game last year in the U20 6N in Cork was a cracker.

Don’t you mean SuperValu park? 😂
Just kidding. Enjoy!
I'm assuming the Willemse red was still judged and decided for disciplinary reasons - he may be screwed for the next two games for his silliness. An accumulated red from two yellows would have him back for the next match.
France looked hollowed out, but Ireland looked shaky occasionally. If France were at full strength for the match it would have been close...
Or I may be hoping against another Irish grand slam.

Should be great 👍
Can't see the France v Ireland U20's on iPlayer - has it been played yet?
Flicked through the Italy England game, but it wasn't as evenly balanced as the Wales v Scotland game unfortunately. The England players look mahoosive (huge!!!!).
Although I’m not sure why the first one wasn’t a straight red
This! So yeah he got yellow, then another yellow which = a red. Second yellow then subsequently upgraded to Red after bunker review. First one looked worse to me! Hell of an effort for 31 minutes (10 of which he was off the pitch)
Hard to see past Ireland really now. There doesn't half seem to be some optimistic views about England 😳 No Lawes and Curry, nor the entire first choice midfield means that it'll be a tough tournament imo. Can't see us beating Ireland, realistically who from England would get in an Ireland XV? Ben Earl and Jamie George are probably the form players currently and hard to see a case for them. Itoje would struggle to replace James Ryan on their bench!
The match is being played at 8:10 tonight. France Ireland under 20's.

👍 cheers
I knew Scotland hadn’t won in Cardiff for a while. Just read that it’s 22 years! 😮
I thought Willemse's second card last night was a straight red (not a second yellow resulting in a red). He had another questionable hit on Porter before that too IIRC.
Nice 2nd try from Italy 😍
Right game on, good luck to all the players!!
Tears from Tammy Winnett
Wales lucky to be as close as they are so far 😄😄😄
What is Scotlands biggest win in Wales?

Tonight's final score 😄
Sod it Grady to 13, might as well go down swinging.
Lifted directly from Welsh rugby forum made me chuckle
I wonder how many of our young prospects are currently on the phone to the Cincinnati Bengals about the possibility of a trial.
I’m gay for Duhan, just wanted to put that out there.
The comeback is on 😄😄😄😄

When the inevitable happens, just know that you will be 100% to blame for it.
Am loving hearing jiffy get put back in his box by nigel owens

Sent the same to my Dad earlier 😂
Pray for TJ!
Also jiffy making his stupid little noises and cheering the Welsh on is getting me seriously close to turning this off
****ing knew it was going to happen.
As soon as the opposition crowd start getting into it Scotland go to pieces. Every. Single. Time. They don't ****ing deserve to win against Norway.
****ing shambles.
Well played Scotland, turned out to be quite fun in the end!
What an eejit I am. What a game.
I started to believe for a moment there. Congratulations Scotland - well deserved. Scotland play very well when on top, but get rattled too easily.
How could we let as bad a side as that back into the game? Often crap being a Scottish supporter!
PS; AA, sorry fella, tough times.
Jiffy; get it right up you, wee mercenary shitehawk waste of skin.
I know Jiffy is one eyed but he seemed even worse than normal today. Great pundit but not when Wales are playing.
1st 1/2 I thought Scotland had to be 20 points up for me not to be anxious. I have now revised that to 30 points for any game against Wales.
