They can't sort out their attack and lineouts. They've not looked like the team that beat NZ since the opening round of the 6Ns against France.

They used to be so clinical and accurate on the ball and they've seemingly lost their cohesion and accuracy over the past season.

I'm a big believer that if you want major success internationally you need a world class club team performing well. (Bulls with SA, Sarries with Eng, Leinster with Ire, Toulose with Fra).

Since losing Lancaster Leinsters attack has slowly deteriorated and it has begun to take effect in the international team.

God knows what Paul O'connell is doing with the forwards because I've not seen such a mistake ridden lineout

Looking at the Irish squad for the Six Nations a few things stand out. First, of the 34 players selected, 14 players are 30 or above while they have 9 players who are 25 or under.

There are some key players who are getting on which includes Murray, POM, Aki, Beirne, Henderson, JGP, Lowe, Conan, Furlong, JVDF and Henshaw. It would appear that sometime in the short to medium term Ireland will likely need to begin some type of transitional phase to avoid a complete rebuild somewhere down the line.

In comparison,

Englands squad has 10 players above 30 and 20 players 25 or under.

Wales has 5 players 30 or above and 17 players 25 or under.

France has 11 players above 30 and 15 players 25

Basically the title.

I've played DS1, DS3 and ER so figured I may as well play 2. I assumed that SOTFS would be the better game as it was an updated version, however I've seen a lot of people complain about the additional gank squads and enemy placements in it.

I'm curious if SOTFS has any major advantages over the original and which game is the better overall experience.

So the US has access to a machine that can detect vibranium and instead of creating a blueprint, making a backup or simply studying it they decide to put their only model out in the field with zero understanding (apparently) of how it's supposed to work?

It makes no sense.

Edit: I guess it's not a plot hole and is simply a case of poor writing.

Didnt see the score originally because the streams were shit. Everyone being super pedantic for the last 10 minutes of the gane, but at 13:58 france have a lineout and it's not straight, curry knocks on but it's play on for France and they score in the next phase. Since it's within one phase a TMO has every right to check it. Does Whitehouse? Nope.

That should have immediately been brought back to a scrum feed for England. Anyone thinking France were hard done by really just wanted Framce to win a lot, and they came super close and it would have been amazing bants. This sub has blue balls right now, literally.
