Finally made it home. Fucking Sydney Trains are forever shit and made what should have been a painless hour and a half trip from Gosford to Homebush a 2 and a half hour ordeal each way.

Anyway, my first in person World Cup match was a blast*. Watching Katie McCabe play for Ireland against Australia was like watching Sam Kerr playing for Chelsea against Arsenal. Like “I love you but please don’t be too good tonight”

It was a good night for the host nations.

* I still maintain that Stadium Australia is a terrible stadium to watch football.

Full credit to Ireland - defensively they were superb, incredibly well drilled.

Happy to get the win, bank 3 points which Nigeria and Canada don't have.

I'm waiting for McCabe to get busted for hands in ruck. She'd be cracking in 7s.

Me waking up at 6am and doing my best, sleepiest impression of an NWSL announcer: "but what about Sam Kerr???"

Whoops, I'm boiling potatoes. Inappropriate dinner choices for an Australian minutes before kick-off

Gutted to see isn't starting tonight for the , but confident that the team has enough skill, resilience and depth to cover it. This has been what has been working on developing.

Final score 10-30 with a try BP!

8 points from two games is a decent return.

Ireland absolutely took the Australian pack apart in the second after some worrying moments, particularly in the scrum, in the first.

Rory Telfer's yellow (maybe red, but shouldnt be) and Ruadhan Quinn's injury at the end are a bit of a worry.

Bring on Fiji!

10-23 with 15 minutes to go

Ireland pushing hard for the BP win (3 tries currently)

Ireland really took control in this second half.
