Open thread: how do you think Ireland will get on against Wales in the 6 Nations today?

It’s game-time.

CROUCH, TOUCH, PAUSE… and engage.

Ireland will kick off their RBS 6 Nations campaign with a showdown with old rivals Wales in Cardiff this afternoon.

Jamie Heaslip will lead the side out for the first time as skipper in the famous old tournament with some fresh blood amongst the backline. It could well, however, be Declan Kidney’s final 6 Nations campaign, while Wales will be without Lions boss Warren Gatland on their bench.

With France and England scheduled to come to Dublin this year, a win at the Millennium Stadium this lunchtime, could set Ireland up for a real tilt at the championship.  So how do you reckon it’ll go today?

Let us know in the comment section below.
