I had to turn off. She sounded like Mrs Doyle the tea lady from FatherTed, except instead of "Will you have a cup of tea" she just kept repeating "Brilliant" every time Ireland got near the ball.
Precisely! :smt023

I quite like the Irish lady commentator to me she seemed fair in appreciating good play often complimenting the English lads as well as the Irish. No argument about the red card in this match, it is so difficult to tackle a man running straight at you, can't go in above the knees (high tackle) and go low but fail to wrap risk the opponent being upended as in this case.

Cusick on the wing is interesting maybe another option for Tigers to look at
I am a little confused by this. Is it the full Georgia side they are playing ?

Thanks for confirming that. I saw highlights of the first game and thought some of the Georgian players looked shall we say swarthy. Probably just the picture

Great to see. Seems we might have multiple Chessums in our senior team if the younger one carries on his current trajectory!

I may have missed it but does anyone know if the Under 20's World Cup.is available to view anywhere?
My other question is after the event.are our young players available early season or do they have to have a minimum time out before they play?

I think, but am not sure, that they are eligible to start the season immediately. With their lower workload through the season I think they may have served any required break (not 100% sure) but it would make no sense having the PRC start when they are ineligible fo any club...
