With the injuries to Johnny Williams and Jonathan Davies, Wales could do worse than move Justin Tipuric to centre.
The flanker has already shown some of his silky handling skills in midfield today.

Wales 6-13 Ireland
Wales fly-half Dan Biggar gets the second half underway.
Will Ireland's 14 men continue to dominate, or can Wayne Pivac's out-of-form Wales pick themselves up?

If I was Wayne Pivac, I wouldn't have a look at Twitter for a while.
Anyway, I'm sure the Wales head coach has more pressing matters to attend to at the moment.
The players are coming back on to the field for the second half.

Former England captain and coach on BBC OneWales have got to psychologically sort themselves out and get back into this game.
They have to sort the line-out and get back into Ireland's half and put the pressure on them.

Former Wales international on BBC Radio WalesAgain Wales' problem comes from the lineout.
Their ball went straight over the top and put Ireland back in this game.
We cannot let this happen anymore, it's been the Achilles heel of the autumn series.

Sam Warburton
Former Wales captain on BBC OneThe biggest thing for Wales was losing Dan Lydiate. Ireland are a possession team and they want to hold onto the ball.
They managed to get that game going from 15 minutes onwards.
Ireland 'comfortably' betterpublished at 15:55 Greenwich Mean Time 7 February 2021

David Humphreys
Former Ireland fly-half on BBC Radio UlsterIt shows a huge amount of character. Ireland will be delighted with the way the second half of the first half has played out. It was going to be difficult anyway coming here, and losing a man makes things worse. However, that hasn't phased them and they have put Wales under so much pressure they are comfortably leading and are comfortably the better team.

Richie Rees
Former Wales international on BBC Radio WalesNick Tompkins at 12 will be interesting because obviously Jamie Roberts has played there for the Dragons and Tompkins has been out at 13.
I'm not sure how much he would have trained there, both with the club or nationally, so lets see how this swap goes.
A huge boost for Irelandpublished at 15:53 Greenwich Mean Time 7 February 2021

David Humphreys
Former Ireland fly-half on BBC Radio UlsterIt's a fantastic try and you want a bit of 'x factor' from your top players.
That's a huge boost heading towards half-time and they are now a score ahead despite being a man down. It makes a much easier half-time conversation for Andy Farrell and changes how they will approach the second-half.

Jamie Heaslip
Former Ireland number eight on BBC OneFrom a psychological point of view, Ireland are in such a good place now.
Wales need to knuckle down and get back in this game or it will get away from them.
Half-time Wales 6-13 Irelandpublished at 15:52 Greenwich Mean Time 7 February 2021
Johnny Sexton boots the ball into touch and, despite having Peter O'Mahony sent off after just 14 minutes, Ireland deservedly lead at half-time.
What an effort that was from Andy Farrell's men.
Wales head coach Wayne Pivac may well have some strong words for his players at the break.

Tadhg Beirne
Wales' line-out gremlins are back. Ken Owens over-throws inside the Welsh half and Robbie Henshaw snaffles the loose ball.
The Irish centre breaks through the Welsh defence and offloads to Josh van der Flier, who is stopped just short of the line.
But lock Tadhg Beirne is on hand to force his way over from close range and Ireland's 14 men lead.
Johnny Sexton converts.

Johnny Sexton
An easy kick for Sexton, just a touch to the right of the posts.
Ireland are level and they've dominated since being down to 14 men.

Wales 6-3 Ireland
The green waves of Irish attacks keep coming.
They flow through their phases and Wales concede a penalty after George North goes off his feet at a ruck.
Johnny Sexton has a penalty inside the Welsh 22 to bring his side level - and it's the least they deserve.

Ian Gough
Former Wales international on BBC Radio WalesYou've got to give Ireland some credit for the last five minutes.
They've put the ball in the air to try and force mistakes and when they've had the ball in hand they've kept it and gone through lots of phases with intensity and tempo.
Wales need to get back in the right areas now and retain some ball.
