All Blacks v Ireland - 1st Test
-
The Barrett incident yes, stupid and he really is becoming a magnet for cards.
The Ioane tackle, good decision by onfield ref to let it go. We don’t want stupidity interfering with the game.

The All Blacks should have been shown two yellow cards in the first Test
Ireland are understood to have got feedback that they also should have been awarded a penalty try.
Just leaving this here.
I so enjoyed the salty comments
Having lived in Ireland their national psyche integrates the notions of injustice and getting a raw deal. So each loss discussion will include “the ref missed this or that” and nowadays “the TMO missed this or that”.

@Billy-Tell Jaa... it is ABs duty to keep them whinging and subconsciously happy!
I do think their rugby culture clashes with NZs as well. BOD, the other midfield shite that played with him bitchily talk about other players and coaches, non-selections, etc. What goes on tour/the field definitely doesn't stay there! Mind you BOD is Irelands biggest Karen so maybe it is unfair to the other rugby folk in Ireland.

Trust in our control of world rugby, and World Rugby, is restored.

They also “require” the AB post-match comments to mention Ireland in a favourable light, otherwise it’s showing disrespect. Then the usual plaudits that all fans from other teams throw our way: thugs, cheats, South Island Sea poaching, different treatment by World Rugby.
Fun times!

The Barrett comments now truly fall into this category:
The Fern is like a house full of geriatrics. People keep repeating themselves. Over and over again.
Kind of like Barrett repeating his poor tuck technique, it’s almost like there is a link?

The article doesn’t tell us how many Irishmen could have died.
PS: who is the whinging dobber that has released that info. Those comments (if true) are never released publicly

@Kirwan This is a thread about just one game, so no.
It’s a completely valid conversation to have about his action in this game, wish you would stop telling what and where to post.

Yes, totally valid convo. People constantly repeating each other and going on and on about it is just plain boring and I'm entitled to say that. I'm not telling anyone what and where things can be posted. Just expressing my opinion about it. It's you expressing your wish that I don't express that opinion.
I'm now muting this thread, so I don't have to see your reply.

I hope @Stargazer doesn't stumble into any other thread on here, I'm pretty sure all have been used at some stage for a dissection of 2019 RWC. It will blow their mind.
