Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  E whitu nga ra i muri mai i to ratou Grand Slam-raru i Cardiff, koinei te whakaaturanga i whakahoutia e Joe Schmidt's Ireland. Kāore i kore te mahi whakapehapeha, engari ko tō rātou huarahi hāngai ake, ki tonu i te huarahi rere, he nui ki a rātau kia eke atu i te whāinga tohu i whakaritea e Wales i mua i te ahiahi. Katahi ka aro katoa nga kanohi ki Ingarangi i mua i te hua i Twickenham i whakapumautia ai ka taea e te taha o Schmidt te whakanui i a ia ano i te 1949 katoa ano <unk> te wa whakamutunga i toa ai te whenua i nga toa toa. Kei te whakanui ngā kaitākaro o Ireland i a rātau e karaunatia ana hei toa o Ngā Whenua e Ono i muri i te kore o Ingarangi ki te patu i a Wīwī mā ngā tohu e 26 e hiahiatia ana e rātau. Kei te pupuri a Kapene Paul O'Connell i te tohu o ngā Whenua e Ono i Murrayfield i muri i te karauna o Ireland hei toa mo te tau tuarua i te raupapa. E whakanui ana te kapa Irish i to ratou angitu i ngā Rōpū e Ono i te wa e whakaohohia ana ngā ahi ahi mai i Murrayfield whai muri i te wikitoria a Ingarangi. E whakanui ana ngā kaiwhaiwhai Irish i te wikitoria o tō rātou kapa i te Six Nations i muri i te kitenga o Ingarangi i a Wīwī 55-35 i Twickenham. Ka eke a Sean O'Brien o Ireland ki te tohu i te whakamātau tuarua i te tukinga RBS Six Nations i waenganui i Scotland me Ireland i Murrayfield. E kore e taea e te tangata te hae ki a ratou mo to ratou wikitoria. E whā noa iho ngā whakamātautau i eke i tēnei wā, kua nui ake te uaua o tēnei mahi i ngā haora i mua i te tīmatanga, nā te mea i te wikitoria o Wales i Roma i hiahia ai a Ireland ki te wikitoria i te 21 ngā tohu hei whakahoki i te tūnga tuatahi i ngaro i a rātou ki Ingarangi i te mutunga wiki kua hipa ki te hinga i te Millennium Stadium. Tērā pea ka nui ake te pēhanga ki te tuku, engari i tino tūpato rātau, i maka atu i ngā mekameka, ā, i titiro ki tētahi taha, i whakapakarihia e te pūkenga, i hiakai hoki ki ngā kaute. I te tīmatanga, i kore a Scotland e whakaae ki ngā whakaaro pai o Ireland. He maha pea nga hokinga mai i tukuna e ratou, a, ka ngaro i te whiu whiu ma te reanga 12 ki te ono, engari he whawhai tonu ratou ahakoa te kore o te whaainga i te haurua tuarua i te wa i kaha ai a Ireland ki te rohe. I tata mai ratou,...
I hiahia a Ingarangi ki te wikitoria i a Wīwī mā te 26 ngā tohu hei wikitoria i te taitara o Ngā Iwi e Ono i muri i te wikitoria a Īerani i a Rōpū Pūkoro. Engari ko te taha o Stuart Lancaster anake i taea te whakahaere i te 20-tohu wikitoria i te mea i karaunatia a Ireland hei toa. I whakapakarihia e Wales te pēhanga i mua i te whakaaturanga o te haurua tuarua ki a Itari e whakawhiwhi ana ki a raatau i te wikitoria.
