Oh well. Fair play to Wales. No complaints or excuses here. Better side wins on the day - thankfully no controversial tries or reffing decisions to muddy the waters. All the best to Wales for next weekend. They should go all the way to the final on this performance.

The green machine can go home with their heads held high.

great game!
Wales were just impenetrable, and the Phillips try was SO well timed.
Could Ireland have been a bit more innovative with their tactics?

Great game for the neutral. Just wanted to see another Irish try to make the last 10 interesting, but the Wales defence was phenomenal. Pretty tempted to skip the England game and just watch that again ๐Ÿ™‚

Well played both teams, score line a little misleading I feel, and thanks to DD for being a good sport being a good loser is always impressive ๐Ÿ™‚

TBH, I can't see what they could have changed. It was game-over for me when they went in 10-3 down at half time. With all that ball and possession in the first half, they should have gone in ahead. Wales were simply too strong in defence and took three great chances when presented - that's where the difference lay today.

Proper game of rugby. Pity one of us had to go out.

Sorry, I have to go quiet for the rest of the day lads. I'm off on holiday for the week thankfully, to somewhere I can forget about rugby for a while. I'll be cheering Wales on next week though - they're mrs deadly's team. I'm a bit gutted (for some of the green machine that won't see another RWC) but like I said, no complaints whatsoever - Wales were awesome today. And given the ferocious defences, there was no ill discipline, nothing for anyone to whinge about for the next few days. Just a great advert for our two nations' rugby.

the score isnt missleading at all. Irelend didt kick for goal when they should of done in the first half. Wales solid defence and played well when they had the ball. Score reflects how they played i think!

Cracking game, Have to say the Welsh, against SA without a kicker, NZ without Carter....can dare to dream...Well done in defeat DD, be interesting to see if the English can do anything to suggest they can live with this Welsh team, who have improved hugely as the tournament has progressed.

Bugger me what a game! Missed the last try 'cos of a pressing engagement with last night's curry ๐Ÿ˜ณ ๐Ÿ™

Wales in a WC Final then? I really can't see France beating them on this form and at the moment i can't see England beating France next!

I really wanted to see Ireland push on but that Welsh squad is something else ...a very well deserved and proud win.

A very big well done to Wales from this very dissappointed Irish fan. Wales were better in almost every aspect of the game and deserve their victory.

I was very disappointed with Ireland, I got the impression that some of the players felt like they just had to turn up. Our error count cost us badly, but not to take it away from Wales they were awesome particularly in defense.

I hope Wales go on to do well in the rest of the RWC, they will have plenty of support from Ireland thats for sure.

So far I am [url= http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/rugby-world-cup-1/page/64#post-3018025 ]50% correct in my predictions[/url].....scores are off though, but I am confident England can grind out an unattractive win.

I think Wales fans should enjoy that fantastic victory for what it is today - and worry about stuff like that tomorrow. ๐Ÿ™‚
