Lovely to see a resurgent Wales playing the hornets attack rugby they are infamous for. As for why they scared Ireland - imo it's because they knew what they were about to face and prepared bloody well. Perhaps starting Crowley would have been a wise tactical move. That was too close. #WALvIRE

McCarthy's tendency to give away stupid penalties in every game reminds me of Trevor Brennan back in the day. Great player BUT... #WALvIRE #M6N

Have some quibbles with the general standard of reffing, but can't deny Wales are dominating the scrum and disrupting Irish cohesion. Wales swarm attack is causing problems. Ireland likes to impose shape - by employing a wild approach Wales are stopping that. Game on! #WALvIRE #M6N

FT Brython Thunders 7 - Clovers 9? I don't know. The @sporttg4.bsky.social app froze as the conversion was about to be taken. #CelticChallange really isn't turning out to be what it was sold as. Coverage is spotty, games not advertised, as for score lines - never good to see so much hockeying.

Have to wonder how useful a competition the #CelticChallange is when at the 20 minute mark Clovers are 34-0 up against Brython Thunders. And a pen try as I was writing... 41- 0. Is this really the way to gain the skills to take on the Red Roses juggernaut?

“There is no will to investigate what happened to the Bessborough Children, 8 5 9 are missing. The other 64 children incl my brother have a reference to their burial in the records but we still don’t have a grave.” Thread: #Ireland

Between 2001 and 2021 Irish governments (consisting of some permutation of FF/FG) gave the Horse and Greyhound industries €1.46 BILLION in a 80/20 split. This includes the Austerity Years and Covid Lockdowns.

Pres AndrewJackson (!) was offered a coffin thought to have held a Roman emperor.His reply "I cannot consent my mortal body shall be laid in a repository prepared for an Emp. or a King; my republican feelings & principles forbid it,the simplicity of our system of government forbids it". A message?

State gave Greyhound Industry nearly €20m in 2024. Two people paid to attend Youghal Greyhound Stadium in 2024. In the whole year. Two paying customers. During the life of the last govt (which is essentially the same as the current govt) they gave the same industry €94m. #SpéirGhorm

While the unUnited Front of Bigots scream about being replaced, Irish govts are systematically selling everything they can to whomever has big bucks. This doesn't appear to concern the Ireland for the Irish mob even a little bit. Funny that.
