Ireland look set to continue their knock out choking. Have been poor.
Rubbish. They are beatable but hardly poor. Our guys got wiped off the floor by SA. I’d be delighted if NZ could play at Ireland’s level.

Interesting set of circumstances for us going into a quarter final as underdogs

If they meet again in the final, I can't see Boks missing that many kicks again
You know that they'll have a new ten for the rest of the tournament

neither team much chop with ball in hand, but gee thier defence and ruck work is top notch

Maybe the defence is why neither team could attack much….

No real use having attack, if they don't allow you to use it. As what will happen to ABs

SA the better rugby players, Ireland the better team.

Sounds like Brer O’Keefe says:
There it is. Where is it. No, hasn’t come out.
He said use it, they didn't, turn over. Right call

@taniwharugby It’s the World Cup success recipe, though, isn’t it? Ball in hand a distant disadvantage.
-
Discipline has been awesome from both teams. No cards - not even a warning
BOK reffed very well - one of his best i think. (I genuinely feel an English or French ref would have made this a very different game)
Cracking game as a neutral - ( my dislike of Sexton makes me want him to lose)
Ireland celebrating like they just won the cup - long way to go yet...... Goal kicking was the difference for me.
