just turned it on and Ireland leading 47-7 with 10 mins to go

 

[nelly sham]

Commentary has dropped in Belfast. Absolute bliss.
Jackman is some dose to listen to.

 

[Hank Scorpio]

Decent second half.

 

[How bad boy]

So emerging Ireland can thrash a second rate South African side.

Good.

Didn't see the match, was there anything of value learned? Presumably not against shit opposition
