I just got in, turned the TV on, and OH MY GOD ITALY!

Just at the interval at the theatre, assume I've not missed anything.

Russia murdered a child and five adults overnight

Russia also killed a second child in Kharkiv. A little boy with his mother.

While Russians paraded under their flag to the sporting world’s cheers, their missiles murdered a 13 year old girl in Kharkiv. Shame on the IOC!

Genuinely if Wales went 7-1 and dropped Deaves & Thomas onto the bench they could have git proper energy annd an jackle threat onto the field in that final quarter it could have, insane as it would have felt beforehand, won the game.

If you're happy for Dan Edwards to cover 9 (As he was for ten minutes today), then genuinely just put an extra forward on the bench. Wales were in a tight game today where Ireland had them make a crazy number of tackles and had two unused subs. That's borderline unforgivable.

Tandy has picked Kieran Hardy on the bench for 7 of his 8 games in charge so far.

Hardy has played a total of 30 minutes, or an average of 3 minutes and 45 seconds per game.

Since we stopped picking Blair Murray at 15?

That was, overall, much improved by Wales.

I think the thing that was frustrating everyone was not the team losing every match, but the way in which they lost. Maybe there are some green shoots there.

As a society we've moved past the need for Sweet Caroline. Kick Ireland out of the tournament

Alex Mann is the best Welshman to wind up the Irish since Mike 'New Ball' Phillips

Furlong properly rattled there. Best thing to take him off.

I want an Eddie Butler monologue as they just play that try on loop in slow motion.

Thala, don't make me give you a stern talking to again!! I will not have this level of positivity and hope!

Rhys CarrΓ© should be getting every SPOTY award. Team, manager, lifetime achievement, individual. Give him everything.

Yes, they're going in behind, but that half I've felt like I'm watching Wales again and Tandy & the players deserve immeasurable credit for that.

Alex Mann stats this half:

Carries - 3
Tackles - 7
Turnovers - 2
Aberdare - 250,345

TRY! Ireland 12 - 10 Wales (Rhys Carre)
41 mins. Well, this is a marvellous spectacle this is. Carre, the big ginger prop forward, takes the ball in the 13 channel on the left, throws a hybrid dummy-handoff on Balacoune and step through the gap to romp like an reanimated oil rig to the line from 15 metres!

Edwards converts it.

Oh, I am personally still absolutely convinced it will all come crashing down in the second half 🀣
