The Left Wing: Ireland's triumph, Italy's resurgence and the big Springbok challenge to come

- Ireland are Six Nations champions once again as Luke Fitzgerald, Cian Tracey and Will Slattery look back on another memorable campaign.
The final victory over Scotland failed to hit the heights as Luke and Cian pick out areas where Ireland will look to improve ahead of two tests against South Africa this summer.
However, there were also plenty of positives as Andy Farrell's men secured back-to-back titles.
Peter O'Mahony's swansong, Italy's impressive showing and an awful few weeks for Wales are all on the agenda too.

"Italy's_Unification (/Unity)_day (/date)":
Is On: the same; as:
"St. Pat's -day!!"!! ;) :) ;) ;) :) :)
Aki is Ireland's best player
Anyone thinks the South Africa tour will settle anything is delusional.
If springboks win “so they win at home at altitude”
If Ireland win “ yeah but the game didn’t really matter”
I would say if SA win it'll be
'ireland are overrated, back in your box, quarter final bottlers, southern hemisphere is superior'
SA lose it'll be
'4 world cups to zero, you can't win a quarter, we weren't trying, it's part of rassies plan, only the WC matters and of course the ref & world rugby cheated us out of it conspiracy.'
@@colingibson5966 that will obviously be the South African view. The other will be it’s been a decade since the springboks beat Ireland outside of SA(including at the World Cup) and one of the games was played at altitude.
Also, SA don’t have a monopoly on claiming to be rebuilding for the future
SA never lost a fair game, they always have an excuse. Worst fans in the world.
@@Camcolito no French must worst and ask England players and tV personalities the rabid racist issues from their fans...Saffa are a bit stupidly blind but never abusive like Irish and English fans...so you are talking shite!
@Camcolito Luckily, you are way better than them? You pikeys are funny.
How would we do without our imports? Like Aki, JGP, Lowe and Mack. Lowe I’d say can be replaced and I’d much rather Mack over Lowe. I think we dealt well without Mack. JGP is key, i honestly don’t know who could replace him.
"Murray's tactical nauce" didn't win the England match or world cup quarter final. He played in both so not sure how it's supposed to make us better when it's already there.
Murray has been disappointing this 6N. His play vs England was truly below par by a long way.

Doris dident break a sweat in last two games what games was Luke looking at it????
Also mack hanson is massive loss at backline he runs the attack at times so underated
Big Joe was quiet too...we miss James Ryan
Doris was quiet. There was a flatness to the last few games of this 6N. It got progressively worse and worse after France.
Ireland are increasingly being carried through games by Aki, Lowe and Gibson-Park. All Kiwi imports and all in their 30s now. Hopefully the management have a succession plan in place, but it's unlikely that any home-grown replacements will come close to their level in terms of skill or physicality.
There are 15 players on the field, not 3. Aki and JGP often say at interview “it’s the lads around me that make me look good”. Yes they are great players without question but they could not do what they do on their own.
Weren't we held up in the Q Final ..??
Yep, then Doris dropped the kick out. 😢
Italy Is 11th in world ranking. I Just wished they pass argentina in the ranking
Yes, winning the 6 nations is a big deal, but winning it on this occasion felt like an anticlimax. I don't want to be critical of the achievement, but Ireland didn't play to their best in the last three matches. I think we have very high standards expected of Ireland now.
Having said that, i remember the 90s when we used to wish we could beat Wales in order to avoid the wooden spoon. So i don't want to lack appreciation for how far Ireland have come
Excellent podcast lads!
No one is mentioning the great player coming through in Tom Ahern, can play 2nd and back row
If South Africa win the first game, the reroute for next game. South Africa has interest believe that nothing else matters other than RWC. I thinks Ireland will win one and South Africa will win one.
For gods Sake! Please ask Luke to raise his webcam! At this stage there is no excuse for shoddy camera positions. My granny could do better!
Why do rugby posts allow comments?... mostly they are desperately jingoistic and lacking any real intellectual discourse... anway thanks to the left wing guys great chat...
You surely can not be considered to be the best team in the world when you lose crunch games winning those games separates the men from the boys
They can't win all IAM diss as a
This team has peaked, downhill from now.
Yeah I guess with nobody coming through from the under 20s and the provinces doing badly and unprofessional setup throughout the RFU it's tough times ahe...
Oh, wait. Well it was a good theory apart from that.
After 2 championships, a series in nz i Will happily take a decline jimmy.thank u
You wish.
They basically had the Championship won in the third game and lost an away fixture by one point against a team that pulled out it's best performance in 5 years and they are done really?
Can we get a bit more banter or a new podcast with some not talking itself serious podcast, like koko. Too serious and bit boring.
