[John Drake]

Discuss Jamaica v Ireland here.

[Davo5]

Comfortable win for the Irish.

[Cw25]

Jamaica 4-36 Ireland

[Big Picture]

Comfortable Ireland win.

[Sports Prophet]

Ireland by 42

[Just Browny]

Slightly O/T but not been to Headingley for years and never as a driver. Any recommendations on where to park? Pretty mobile so doesn't need to be adjacent to the ground.

[Jonty58]

Irish in a Canter

[Magic XIII]

England Samoa and then on to this game - both should be real close affairs. Can't wait.

[Yakstorm]

Definitely a history making match. Who would have thought Jamaica would qualify for a Rugby League World Cup 18 years after the sport was first introduced?

[The Hallucinating Goose]

Looking forward to this one. Been wanting to see Jamaica in action since they qualified and Ireland are my second team. Ireland to win easily. 

[Tex Evans Thigh]

Large victory for Ireland. I like the look of them and think they'll get out of the group. Jamaica look terribly poor and are going to suffer some big defeats. Ireland by 50.

I usually park the other side of St Michaels Lane from the ground, going away from Headingley towards Burley Park, past the allotments.

[DavidM]

Not at a bad team at all that ireland have named 

[meast]

They might not win a game but the mere fact that Jamaica are in it could be a boost for the sport.

Hopefully their fans, of which I'm sure there'll be many of will bring noise and colour!

[Number 16]

Let's hope that at the end of eighty minutes Jamaica are Jamming and that Ireland still haven't found the win they're looking for.

Why are Ireland your second team out of curiosity?

I have a lot of Irish ancestry in my family so I have a bit of a link back to the Emerald Isle.

I usually park on Newport Rd off Cardigan Rd. About 5mins walk from the ground.

Shame that this game isn't being played in West London!

Absolutely brilliant to hear Jamaican accents on the BBC talking about this game.

Pretty much inevitable and unavoidable to have games on at the same time as soccer matches.

Yep, it and will be a better watch than a load of self obsessed multi millionaires being fawned over.
