I think this is going to be in an echoey, empty stadium if... I think there's, as I say, there's like 90 different permutations, only 12 of them and then an Irish win.

if Scotland wins the Six Nations by finally beating Ireland and then celebrating in an MTV stadium this will be like the most bizarre finale but it's happened France lifted a trophy in a Dublin hotel once I think in the morning afterwards and England have definitely lifted a trophy in a hotel Ireland had they won in 2007 remember they were all watching it was called the documentary walking in the hotel in Rome with all the journalists hanging around

But yeah, I don't even think they're staying in the stadium.

I think they have to bust them back if it happens.

So it's all, again, I don't think I'm actually at liberty to tell all this, but you know, it's out now.

Fun times.

Yeah, I think on that point, like the big attacking passages of play that England were putting together, they were impressive in the first 20 minutes.

But from an Irish perspective, I thought our discipline was exceptional.

The key when you get into the 22 and you're attacking is ideally you get a penalty advantage at some stage and quite often teams will either not roll away or you'll step offside or.

But our discipline was really, really good.

Now, we were soaking a little bit and part of that, full credit to England, their attack was good.

But that meant when the mistake did come, we were able to then really relieve pressure, get it back to the halfway line.

I agree with Rudd, you're kind of looking at the opportunities we have, kind of going, oh, are we getting enough scores on the board for this dominance?

But then when we did get the scores, our restart receipt was exceptionally good.

And I thought our balance throughout the game of whether to kick straight away, whether to run and challenge England and get on the front foot and then put the ball early.

You look at Sheehan playing Van der Vlier on that short line.

And then we end up getting right into, you know, the passage ends with England having a free kick five meters from their line.

That's off a restart receipt.

They then kick it back.

We subsequently score again.
