@Dodge said in All Blacks vs Ireland:
Think the grief being aimed at Ratima and praise at Cam is unfair tbh, forwards were sloppy in the first half, Ireland were all over the breakdown and he was getting shit ball under pressure, second half ABs tightened up and went forward, almost an armchair ride
Nah - he had ample opportunity to get the ball out but chose to fap around on at least 3 separate occasions... it was noticeable how much more quickly Cam got the ball out of the rucks.

@Dodge said in All Blacks vs Ireland:
So well deserved, ABs comfortably the better side and a few forwards really emerging. Can’t work out if Ireland are on the way down from last years peak or if they’re rusty. I’m beginning to suspect the former
My thoughts too Dodgie

I was f***n nervous up to 75min

DMac is my MOM
Taking nothing away from DMac, but Aumua for me,

I think I might be a bit clouded on DMac by that little fuck around with Jordan. Otherwise he kicked lots and passed in front of his forwards.
The 2nd half was so good once we went back to 15.

DMac was way better with roigard on. It's like he didn't feel he had to do everything.
That's a good point.

Aumua was tremendous no doubt , must be a nightmare to tackle

Rieko won't get a good rating in the media player ratings because they don't know what they are watching but he was brilliant
Did he have time to say his best wishes for any of the Irish players at the end of the game?

Thought that was 90% on Jordan.
Dmac's vision for the try was brilliant, putting Sititi (I think) into space with the long cut out pass

We really shut them down. I’ve got to say, I’d be all for starting roigard and having hotham on the bench. Ireland really need a refresh. Squad and tactics. But not our problem

Great defender. Jury is still out if it’s his legs or head that’s gets him out of trouble.
He has a pair of bollocks on him though.
A proud Allblack is our Doppy.

Roigard is mustard.
It’s not even a conversation in my opinion.
It’s his jersey.

When roigard was on, huge difference to the team and DMac
-
Congrats fuckers, well deserved win. Ireland rudderless without a leader like Sexton, lacking in attacking ideas. Error count not acceptable and that's surely down to rustiness,. Frawley very poor when he came on for Crowley.
-
@The-Irishman play off 9. He's really fucking good.
-
ABs discipline was actually the best its been in ages... still not perfect but bloody good for us

@Jet said in All Blacks vs Ireland:
We have no out halves of note.
We either play off 9 or need to find a gun soon.
Wont be winning a World Cup with DMAC, Beaudy or RMO
We just DOMINATED the number 1 team in the world that hasn't lost at home in near 20 matches (8 years).
How do we still have doomsdayers 😂Dmac was 10x better with Roigard on and pretty much won us the game with that skip pass in the end.
