Stander having a stormer in terms of the dirty work. Huge hit in midfield, won a penalty in his 22 when he got over the ball, dragged Bonneval over the touch line when Bonneval had been a good bit infield, and then dived on a loose ball with plenty of competition for it, all in the space of about 3 mins. Outstanding.

They throw one of those in every year or two - just to point out to people who get their TV from resellers that they aren't getting the full Sky experience, the Clermont gamein 10-11 for example

Really good defence in the ten mins that ROM was off. Night and day when compared to last week, should see this out now.

Zebo won't be near the 6N squad
Ruddock's tackle stats consistently too low for me to be taken seriously as a Six Nations blindside..... Ruddock's defensive stats don't stack up. - All Blacks Nil, Jan 15th, 2014

Stander has been magnificent. Will be disappointed if he doesn't get a couple of starts in the 6N.

If anything summed up the difference between this week and last, Keatley making a choke tackle to finish the game is it.

Briliant stuff. Poor in the set piece and a poor first 15 mins or so but impressive outside of that. Also think JP Doyle was harsh on them throughout the game.

I can see how putting a game on the red button shows the full Sky experience but what exactly is the point of showing two of their five games at the same time? Why not move one to the 15.15 or 19.45 slots so if you are paying for Sky you can at least watch all the games?

That was one very toe curling interview at the end there. It looked like Foley really didn't want Quinlan anywhere near him.

Well worked maul again, Keatley with a brilliant kick over the top for Zebo to chase and he showed great pace and hands to go under the sticks. Delighted for Keatley.
Watching the highlights on TG4 now and they showed Zebo's try three or four times. I know this will probably sound silly but, even after all the replays, I still can't see the ball being grounded - looked 'held up' by Zebo

really glad they won, going by Foley's comments after the game I think he'll do the 3rd year but thatll be it
