Ireland's solid performance in the Six Nations, highlighted by Caelan Doris's leadership, has set them on a clear trajectory towards winning the championship for the third time consecutively. The match showcased their dominance, particularly represented by Jack Conan's bonus-point try. Meanwhile, a contrasting atmosphere was captured in the stands, where injured Scottish players laughed, evoking thoughts of familial rivalry from the show Succession, hinting at Scotland's lack of competitiveness in the tournament.
Midway through the second half, just after Jack Conan had secured a bonus-point try and the win for Ireland, the television cameras flashed to injured Scottish captain Sione Tuipulotu and one of his deputies Finn Russell having a laugh in the Murrayfield stands.
The scene from Succession when their fellow Scot Logan Roy addresses his squabbling children came to mind. To paraphrase actor Brian Cox, these are not serious Lions contenders.
