Six Nations: Ireland v Wales

Ireland aims to maintain title hopes against Wales, who seek their first Six Nations win since 2023, with referee Karl Dickson overseeing the intense contest.

  • Ireland host Wales in the fourth round of the Six Nations at Aviva Stadium, Dublin tonight with kick-off 8.10pm and referee Karl Dickson confirmed.
  • After scaling new heights at Twickenham, Ireland arrive buoyed by their England win two weeks ago, while Wales have not won a Six Nations game since 2023 and suffered 24 defeats from 26 Tests since the 2023 World Cup.
  • The match featured intense defence, with Ireland making 67 tackles compared to Wales' 61, and Jack Conan's 44' try put Ireland 17-10 ahead.
  • The standings show France on 15 points, Scotland on 11, and Ireland on nine, leaving Ireland reliant on France slipping to stay in title contention.
  • Photographs showed travelling Welsh fans and Irish supporters in Temple Bar, Dublin, ahead of kick-off, with Gatland linking Wales' decline to Thatcherism and 1980s teacher strikes.
