A relatively daunting first outing for Stuart Lancaster in his re-incarnation as a senior coach


Gerry Thornley - Irish Times

**********

A lot will be made of Keatley’s performance (and he was certainly poor for the most part) but he wasn’t helped by an extremely erratic performance from both of his scrumhalves.


Three Red Kings

**********

What got particular traction was O'Driscoll's tweet in response to one New Zealander: "you lot are so blinded by your beloved team. It bangs of not having a whole lot else". He later deleted that tweet, admitting it was petty.


Sinead Kissane - Irish Independent

**********

Weir’s speculative kick into the right-hand corner drew a shocking misjudgment by Scarlets’ star full-back Liam Williams.


Duncan Smith - The Scotsman

**********

"I think he’s put together a brilliant coaching team, brilliant backroom staff, and Ireland seem to be getting better and better."


Murray Kinsella - The42.ie
