On the Ireland-Wales thing around the whole Warburton red card. There is a lot of bad blood between Ireland and Wales over that which makes this year strange as out of the 6Ns team the supporters are normally the closest.
Myself I think that Roland was spot on with the red card and all the bullshit afterwards was out of order. At the Wales game there were some Weslh fans a couple of seats down from us. So after the game I shook each of their hands and congratulated them and told them to go do the slam so that we wouldn't have lost for nothing. That's what our game is about, at least to me.
I really enjoy the style of rugby that Wales play and wish Ireland could finally get a backs coach to have our backline moving the same. Anyone who's watched Leinster this year knows the potential is there to do it, just the ideas are lacking. I'm glad Gafney is gone but disapointed there's no talk of a replacement.
As for when things will smooth over between Ireland and Wales, I think in just over a years time when the majority of the Lions are Welsh or Irish it wont be too hard to come together to hate you lot in Oz. Understand the hate is in the best spirit of the game, although individual players may earn themselves a lifetime of animosity due to some incident or other, the next time you guys play someone who isn't us the general good feeling towards Oz that exists among the Celts should return.
