<p>The only forward who has been playing well in this game is Mikaele-Tu'u.</p>

This is what happens when Auckland is under represented in the team..

[Derm McCrum]

Well done Deegan!

[Stargazer]

<p>Ireland are in again after another failed scrum from NZ. 28-19</p>

[Tordah]

<p>Sam Nock, what a shocking performance</p>

[Higgins]

<p>As I write  this  (my previous post) Alex Fidow's inability to prop a scrum gets shown up graphically. Ireland score from the resultant penalty.</p>

[Derm McCrum]

McPhillips doing brilliantly again.

[Stargazer]

<p>Converted. Ireland leads 30-19 with 73 minutes on the clock.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>And then NZ (Tuitama) scores! 30-24.</p>

[Tordah]

<p>replacement scrumhalf on for 20 seconds and already done more than Nock the whole game</p>

[Stargazer]

<p>What's that NZ replacement halfback trying to achieve with kneeing his opponent while he's putting the ball in the scrum? Lucky the ref didn't see it. What a moron. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>And then again, now giving away a penalty. Who is that?</p>

[Stargazer]

<p>Ireland up to 33-24. NZ can't win anymore with less than 2 minutes to go. </p>

[Billy Tell]

Our scrum is just embarrassing. Humiliated. You can't expect to win without a set piece. Not to mention yet another NZ goalkicker who can't.

[Stargazer]

<p>And it's over! Ireland win 33 - 24.</p>

Did I hear that he played for Samoa in last years tournament?<br><br>
Well done young Paddies. Brought the heat up front on defence and stunned our forwards. <br><br><br>

Well that's kinda nice. Warm glow.

[Frye]

Is this supposed to be summer? What awful weather. Just an absolute hole.

It's called rain. Happens occasionally up these parts.

[Stargazer]

<p>Haha, they're celebrating beating NZ as if they have beaten the All Blacks! </p>

<p>I thought they said that about Malo Tuitama, not the replacement halfback?</p>

[Stargazer]

<p>Now the question is: what can Robertson and co. do to avoid losing the third game? It's clear what our weak points are and Wales will have noticed that, too.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>TJ Va'a and Jonah Lowe should start, but what else? Can you really improve a forward pack in a few days?</p>
