Wales have been concerningly slow out of the blocks. They have not been anywhere near quick enough up in Ireland's faces.
They have got a reprieve but they have not won any of the battles early on.
Ireland 7-0 Wales
The scrum collapses but Aaron Wainwright brings it away with a strong carry.
Wales reset and Tomos Williams sends it clear.
Ireland 7-0 Wales
It's been ruled out.
Tom O'Toole touched the ball forward and Wales will have the scrum.
Can they use that to turn the tide? It's been one-way traffic so far.
Ireland 12-0 Wales
Hang on, we're going to the TMO.
Was there a knock on in the build-up?

Wales have not woken up yet and it’s cost them.
We said at the start, Wales' chance of winning this game is to start strong and they've done the opposite.

Jack Conan
The pressure just kept on coming and it ends with Jack Conan driving over the line.
He brought two men over with him on his way to touching down.
This is some start from Ireland.

Ireland are right in the danger zone again and are just piling the pressure on the Welsh defence.

The two brilliant sides of Stuart McCloskey on show in the build-up to that opening Ireland try. A bruising carry gaining valuable metres after contact, quickly followed by quick, soft hands to send Stockdale over.
Andrew
What a great start from Ireland. There is no complacency showing at all.
Fred, Portrush
Wales don't seem to have learned much - still have the mindset of kicking away possession with disastrous consequences.
John, Cheltenham
Ireland 7-0 Wales
It's good again from Stockdale as he collects a bouncing ball and dances past two players before being cut down.

Scott Williams

That’s unfortunate, it all came from the scrum.
Dan Edwards not nailing the kick that lead to the scrum, then missing the tackle and that’s opened the scoring for Stockdale.
Dan Edwards needs to do better.
Ireland 7-0 Wales
Ireland look to move it around halfway but Jack Conan can't gather the pass and it's out for a line-out to Wales.

You would think Wales would've tried to get up in Stuart McCloskey's face and knock him back early on. It's a lovely pass out the back from the Ulster man to his club mate but Wales need to be up quicker there.

The first chance for the Irish attack to click and they duly oblige.
Stuart McCloskey - confidence coursing through his veins - tees up his Ulster mate Jacob Stockdale and Ireland are up and running.
His first Ireland try in five years.

That's Jacob Stockdale's 20th try for Ireland. His last came in 2021 against Japan, and now only five men have scored more tries in green.

Stuart McCloskey has three massive involvements in that try and Stockdale just accelerates into that gap.
Jacob Stockdale (con Crowley)
What a start for Ireland! Stuart McCloskey draws two men onto him and Jacob Stockdale races onto the ball and over the line.
Jack Crowley converts.

James Hook
Former Wales fly-half on Radio Wales Sport
The space was there for Dan Edwards, but some great kicks by Tomos Williams but that second kick by Edwards has presented Ireland a scrum in the centre.
Every time Louis Rees-Zammit gets on the ball, I’m like ‘go on have a go’ he’s so exciting but needs that little confidence.
Ireland 0-0 Wales
Ireland win the throw and the forwards are chipping away at the 22.
Rob Baloucoune shows a burst of pace to bring Ireland five metres out, but the Welsh defence holds firm.
Ireland 0-0 Wales
An early statement from Ireland as they win the penalty from the scrum.
Jack Crowley goes for touch and brings Ireland to the edge of the 22.

Right idea from Dan Edwards but wrong execution.
