Ireland 31-7 Wales: Hosts make it three wins from three with Welsh victory
Wales, despite trailing 17-0 by the halftime whistle, showed moments of resurgence with a penalty try that saw Beirne sin-binned. The victory marks a historic 18th consecutive win for Ireland at the Aviva Stadium and ties the record for an 11th successive Six Nations Test win, a testament to their continued excellence and a milestone shared with England’s streak from 2015 to 2017. Despite a penalty try awarded to Wales, Ireland’s control and execution remained unshaken, with their defence repelling Welsh advances effectively. “I thought we were a bit passive in the first half but I thought Wales were tenacious in defence. We are on a journey.”Try-scorer Ciaran Frawley after his first Test start said added: “Look, it was a bit of clunky in the first half.

Ireland on course for Six Nations grand slam after beating Wales
Ireland is halfway to the Grand Slam after putting down a spirited Wales by a harder-than-expected 31-7 in Six Nations rugby this morning (NZT). But they couldn’t grab the bonus-point fourth try until the 81st minute. An utterly dominated Wales used the halftime break to regather its wits and rally with a penalty try. A ruck penalty against Wales was kicked to the corner again by Ireland for another lineout but Ireland opted for 11 pick-and-goes. By halftime, Wales had conceded nine penalties, equal to what it conceded in total against Scotland and England.

My Saturday with Fota ranger Teresa Power: ‘I do really love the animals that I care for'
I’ve always loved animals, but I never thought I’d end up working with primates. Then I’ll meet with my team of four and will have a quick catch up with them depending on what block of animals I’m assigned to. My dad was big into animals too when we were growing up and I think he passed it onto me. I do really love the animals that I care for. I think the best part of my day is finally falling asleep knowing all the animals are tucked up.

Blitzboks must beat Ireland to advance in Vancouver
The Blitzboks downed New Zealand and then lost to Great Britain on the opening day of the HSBC SVNS Vancouver in Canada, meaning they'll have to beat Ireland in their final Pool C clash on Saturday. They did receive a losing bonus point though, something that could work in their favour should they get past Ireland at 11.05pm (SA time) later today and New Zealand beat Great Britain. Great Britain, who outplayed Ireland earlier, top the pool with South Africa second, while New Zealand and Ireland will be desperate for a win against Great Britain and the Blitzboks respectively to advance to the last eight. Great Britain scored twice in the opening three minutes of their match against South Africa and kept them on the back foot for the remainder of the half. South Africa 12 (5) Great Britain 17 (12)SA: Tries: Shilton van Wyk, Impi Visser.
