What a lovely rugby-filled weekend. Didn’t watch every match in full but managed to see a few minutes of some matches while watching all of others. Obviously delighted Ireland had a good start, though plenty to work on. Reffing standards have been pretty decent. From drop goals to dropped passes, from out of key anthems to out of beer stadiums, an interesting opening salvo. Thanks to all the rugby heads on mastodon for their commentary and fun comments.

36 hours away to watch at and on getting home I now have a kitty who does not want to leave my side.

The 82-8 scoreline doesn't flatter Ireland, but it also doesn't reflect how good Romania were, individually anyway

The Irish performance reminded me of the 1st test against the All Blacks last year. The systems worked well for the most part, but we were let down by a few forced passes and a few unkind bounces of the ball

Romania defended really well at times, but just couldn't cope with the slickness of the Irish handling & running lines

There are a few gifs that you could make to encapsulate that match. I like this one in relation to the last 3 minutes or so.

Will be interesting debrief, big score but still plenty of mistakes ( Lineout, accuracy of passes) hopefully remaining matches won’t be played in such heat @rugby

All joking aside, it was good to see us being clinical. We've often taken our foot off the pedal in similar circumstances.

The last 20 mins of this game feel a bit like when you’d play Jonah Lomu on PS1 & just wanted to give someone a caning so you pick NZ & play against Zimbabwe or Sri Lanka & 4 mins in you’re regretting your choice of 10 minute halves! 😬

Just turned on the TV there to catch the end. I had to do a double take thinking my TV signal was messed up. Is that really *75*?

Ok we are going to need to get in touch with the team box because some of these players are not respecting "one try each for every team member" and it's just rude really 😂

One try for every player? Can we do it?

Ireland’s performance so far not going to worry many of their competitors @rugby hopefully it’ll improve over this and coming matches.

Do I want Ireland to win? Yes.
Do I expect Ireland to win? Yes.
Would I laugh my ass off if Ireland lose? Also yes.

Said it for years, main objective for tier 2 rugby nations should be a kicker that slots 80-85% of their chances.
It keeps the scoreboard ticking over & changes the way teams defend against you within 40 metres of their own line!
That miss by the 9 was abysmal!
