So let's see..., Darren blames Sexton, Toner, Heaslip, Schmidt and Leinster for the failure. I'm surprised Darren didn't throw Henshaw to the wolves too, but maybe our Darren thinks he's not in Blue long enough to count.

As an Irish fan I don't blame Barnes sure he is biased and anti Irish. But we lost that game hands down the team selection was not right first it should be Jackson at ten then why would you pick toner he is useless in tackling, rucking and not great in the line outs then heaslip has had his day I agree with an earlier poster put in Tommy o Donnell. There are serious changes needed but I don't see it happening under Schmidt he will alway choose a mainly Leinster team so we will continue to be mediocre.
No I'm not saying pick all Munster or Ulster or Connaught but pick the best from each and give new talent a fair shot stop ignoring lad that put in the effort get the yards and can do the basics well.

Is Barnes human?
Let's just say I am supporting Wales as well as Ireland and Scotland lol
not saying it would have changed the result. better team won, but how the **** did wayne barnes become a top tier ref. he is an absolute dope. would see better reffing at an under 10s game.
wales certainly showed they still have plenty of teeth. consistancy still an issue with both teams on show last night. lets hope we can go and redeem ourselve against england next week. would love to stop their winning streak but really hope scotland can do it today. hope they go on and win the championship outrright.
Everytime Ireland lose its the refs fault.. I was hoping Ireland would end Englands run but now I'm not so sure!
I feel like we've recovered a bit of our dignity after the tournament we've just had. Might be a bit of a biased statement but I think that's a contender for game of the tournament..
i think our choice of captain needs to be looked at. Best is a great player but think he lacks the ability to get most from his players and lacks assertivenss with the refs.
