Ireland raise hopes…

March 11, 2006

Wales and Italy drew 18-18 in a dreary contest before a quiet Millenium Stadium earlier today. The score was tied 15-15 at the half ... only 3 points scored by each side in the 2nd half -- do I detect a trend...?

And Ireland just put away Scotland 15-9 to put themselves in a strong position for the Six Nations title. Ireland led 12-9 at the half -- only 3 points scored in the 2nd half total.

Not exactly champagne rugby, but tight, tense, and like I said in the preview below -- nailbiters.

Tomorrow is the Big One...
