Wales March On

I was doubtful about today. I thought Ireland have been improving. They have a lot to prove. But somehow Wales won another match. In many ways they made it harder than it should have been, ill discipline leading to two players sin binned. I think those were both harsh calls by the ref, especially as he later let an Irish player slam Jones in the back, and they could have been decisive. Wales held it together, didn't buckle, and managed a win. So next week is a Grand Slam match against France. And we have tickets.

And English readers are probably hoping I don't mention the other game. Scotland, who have been in the doldrums for a while, managed to pull off a win against England. A poor and unexciting match, with a shock result.
