Top Comments of this video!! :3
Irishman here. Loved this. Very fair, very accurate. I don't know where Ireland go from here. It generally is the 'monster' sides that we have trouble with, the South Africas, the French and the English. The La Rochelles in the club games. And of course the All Blacks for a different reason. Ireland has come a long way. We are regularly getting wins over these teams, but NOT when it's the crunch game that makes history. We have been so close though, all one score losses. We just have to find that little bit extra. And if some idiot comes on and says that we are 'chokers'! Choking is NOT turning up and these Irish sides HAVE turned up, but just can't quite get it over the line.
I do worry that this might happen to Leinster again this year, as the Irish side looked a bit tired the last two matches, and there's still a lot of rugby to go in the season. And I do fear that the Irish lads could be out of fuel altogether by the time we go to South Africa.
I hope that I am wrong, but I have a gut feeling that things could go belly up!!

Great analysis again. But, as an Ireland fan, I would suggest that it's not fair to ask what went wrong for Ireland. It should be more about what went right for England. I feel that Ireland weren't quite at the best but that is mainly because England played really well and they deserve a lot of credit for that

Been waiting for these guys to get together again and speak about that game after their comments before the game. Great talk as usual with some really good points as usual. Just one comment i think is interesting when they were talking about did they win because of emotion. Personally as an England fan who watch all their games, with the new defence coach Felix Jones and attack coach Richard Wigglesworth, i feel like they are starting to play differently to last year and differently from the world cup.
They are defiantly playing more ball in hand and trying to get the wingers more involved. Ireland kicked more than England which a few months ago before new coaches would never of happened, England would've out kicked Ireland probably by more than double. Another showing of how much England looked to carry and keep the ball rather than kicking was the carries and metres made, England had 30 more carries with almost 400 metres more carried and almost 300 metres gained. They tried doing the same to Scotland, problem was in this ireland game England had 7 handling errors and in the Scotland game it was over 20, that's why it looked so rough. This game was executed way better.
The new coaches did say it would take around 15 test matches after the world cup to full implement their coaching. As an England fan i'd never get carried away with this win and i still think Ireland deserve to win the 6 Nations and are still a class above England, i just think England are on a good path right now and i hope it continues with this brand of rugby.

Shumi, Jean en Schalk, I love the pods but Im properly homesick and would thorouly enjoy you guys at an outdoor venue with a braai going on in the background with some beautiful mountain, sea or architectural scene from around Cape Town as a backdrop. Im from Somerset West so the Helderberg would be sublime. Just I thought, tourist ambassadors nogall.
