Disappointing performance from the boys against Fiji especially given we were playing against 13 men for long periods. Understandably lacking cohesion in the first 40 given the nine changes but we didnโt really kick on. No doubt AF will let them know ๐คฃ. Beirne Timoney Jamo Garry McCloskey all good Good cameos from Crowley Casey and Deegan #IREvFIJ
We'll forget that match in a hurry. Left a rake of tries behind, esp with all the cards, like we didn't know how to play with the advantage. I thought TB was PotM. Credit to Fiji apart from discipline made it very difficult for us. On to next week. #IREvFIJ
Not a Mexican wave fan but I think I'll give the Aviva crowd a pass for this one #IREvFIJ
Can see why the crowd seems subdued. Ireland did well from close out with extra man but struggling to advance the ball from midfield, getting helped by poor Fiji discipline. Despite Timoney tries, Tadhg Beirne our most effective back rower so far. Possibly need a territory game to stretch this lead further. #IREvFIJ
I am the official #JoeyCarberyAppreciationSociety. One of my favourite current Irish players and love to see him starting. Obviously Sexton is The Legend and all of that, but it's good to know the no. 10 is in safe hands.#IREvFIJ #rugby

Fiji are both bloody huge in defence and light on their feet in the running at the same time. #IREvFIJ

Not a good start for Ireland. Biggest worry was cohesion especially on defence and it was lacking there but also on first attack the Fijians seem to have brought the line speed #IREvFIJ
Oh wow that was poor from Ireland. Yikes! Love watching Fiji run though! #irevfij
