I see that lad Jarvo managed to get on the pitch again today for a national anthem.

Then there was the idiot who invaded the pitch during the game, currently in hiding or leaving Wales if he has any sense.

So they couldn't close the bloody roof. Fair enough.

Japan made the same mistake as Ulster they defended too narrowly and got exposed on the wings .

Lowe to me is the Leinster equivalent of Gilroy to be honest -- without the the same degree of International success-- the second Half Ireland suffered from a referee who was protecting Japan a serious defeat and Murphy kick away possession .

My opinion on that game being it proved nothing -- since the Japanese on the day couldn't tackle a fish supper never mind an Irish with the ball.

There was also one for the anthems at Wales v NZ.

With the broadcaster policy we generally don't see how often this sort of thing happens, so hard to say if it is an increase or not. The anthem bit is, on the face of it, harmless fun, but it is the thin end of the wedge, like streaking. I haven't heard the whole story on yesterday's incident during the Wales game, and while I don't buy into the 'cost Wales a try' story, obviously we don't need that sort of shîte happening.

I don't know who J**vo is, and I don't care. I'm happy to endorse Eventsec snipers.

It was Jarvo last week also at Wales v NZ. He does this sort of thing at football, cricket, NFL etc.

Just watched Scotland v Australia. Niggly boys those Aussies but a very watchable game. I'm always impressed with Romain Poite as a referee. He knows that he can't see everything and has a lot of common sense.

Exactly why are the IRFU employing Farrell since it would appear that the primary coaching of the Irish team is employed by Leinster .?

I think on current select policy HwM could do the job blattered to the gills

HWM's game plan would be "we don't want to be winning at half time." :D

Probably for the best, given the blatant flying wedge from the lineout for Scotland's (otherwise very well worked) try. He looked long and hard to check when the ball was transferred, but seemed to forget about the new law completely.
Also he was hallucinating when he saw a swinging arm ahead of Hooper's disallowed try.

The pitch invader from Wales South Africa game has got himself a life ban from games in the Principality Stadium. His club may also face sanctions as he was registered player etc.
