We can beat them if we don’t give away to many penalties, we’ve just been to ill disciplined in this campaign.

Going to be match of the tournament,it’s goin to be a very tight score line,Ireland to squeeze it, come on Ireland

Can’t wait to get started! Come on Ireland

Ireland by a last minute drop goal by Rodge. Get in.

i’d love to be in my local cheering on an ireland win, its just to close to call. if kearney ferris and tommy bowe play well we more than have a chance. looking forward to the game of the six nations though. come on ireland…

I think we can beat them as long as we don’t react to their intimidation which will inevitably lead to us conceding to many penalties.

Denis get a grip!

Don’t like the Irish lads unnecessarily talking down the English team, could come back to haunt us

Weak centres? Earls made 19 tackles against Scotland and hasn’t let anyone past him tournament plus Ferris is with the centres in the defensive line so I wouldn’t be a bit worried about midfield. What I would worry about is Sexton or Reddan aimlessly kicking downfield when they get panicked because Foden and Ashton can kill us in counter attack. I think we’ll win if we can retain ball and the forwards can clear the rucks fast enough.

We have scored more tries than any other team this year and we have conceded less penalties than in previous few years. But statistics and form mean nothing when Ireland play England.

What’s needed is hard discipline and an early try to upset their game plan. C’MON IRELAND!!!!!

Heaslip will need to play much better than he has been. Morgan looks like the 8 of the tournament and Heaslip needs to put him on the back foot. We’ve a better scrum and line put should achieve parity at least. I just wonder if the 4 games on the bounce might be a bridge too far.

England 22 –Ireland 78

Feliz Dia de San Patricio !!!!!!! From Argentina !!!!!!!!!!!!!

19. 16 to the Irish. Come on lads

Ireland will win by to touchdowns

we are going to murder them and spill some green blood :-)

Don’t understand all the negative comments about Ireland here. If he hadn’t given away a (debateabe) last minute penalty agaiant Wales and if we managed one score in the whole second half against France we would be on for a grand slam today!

Maybe for St. Patrick’s day they might play the actual anthem not the makey up one!

A number of Ireland’s players need to man up and show all what they are more than capable of when they are not occupied with their own egos
A loss and we definitely need a long overdue Kidney transplant
Today more than ever – if is time

English will plough through our weak centres.

Ireland to win if we keep the penalty count below 10 against a ref who really doesn’t like us and kidney keeps tomas o’leary off the pitch.
England have nothing but brut strenght but v an Irish team on paddys day than wont matter.
As for Farrell he will play against his first real Outhalf today and will come second best.

Overall Ireland have been poor this year,England 30 Ireland 12

Id say they’ll lose.

Ehhhh typo !

IT IS TIME !!!!!!!

England are favourites and will win. Ireland are woeful this season. Time to sack the management and rebuild the team.

Nice one. I hope they don’t.

It will all hinge on our forwards, who were all excellent against Scotland. St. Patrick’s day advantage to edge it for us.
