The Wales-Ireland match was a brilliant game of end-to-end rugby, with particularly the Welsh build up where the pick and drive was sterling work. Ireland have to take care with spoiling the rucks though. If Priestland had got his early kicks in the game would have never been in doubt.

As for Scotland, words fail me, how can you have over 70% of possession and 3 good breaks and come away without a score? By committing stupid errors repeatedly, not least passing back to Parks on the goal line instead of first reciever clearing. I feel another season of frustration coming on
