RWC QF: All Blacks v Ireland

[antipodean]

@Higgins Yes. And keeps the ABs as record consecutive win holders too.

@Joans-Town-Jones Hard to call those ones in the last minute. Thank goodness, Whitlock clearly won the turn over.

[Tordah]

Another probable Foster first: Win a WC quarter final against the world number one ranked team

Geez that was a test and a half! That was brilliant, and to all you negative lot that were picking a loss ! Get stuffed!

[sparky]

All Blacks giving a guard of honour to Ireland. All class!

[MajorRage]

Sextons face is the best thing I have ever seen.

Bro, they were clear as mud. They had no problem sending AS to the bin over a fingertip and cover defence. Anyways. FUCK YES!!!!

Forget the analysis, forget the X’s and O’s, forget who got selected and who didn’t. The way we defended at the end showed what it means to be an All Black. Everything on the line for a do or die match. We were focused and we played for each other.

All Blacks got strategy for game right. Hope they play this tough in the game(s) to come.

This is churlish

But Sextons bitch face makes me even happier

He was spraying someone after the whistle. What a fluffybunny.

Yeah, who was that aimed at?

[BerniesCorner]

Best game I've seen

The irish really fell off. Didn't ask many questions - just static straight running - quite disappointing.
Conor and Jonny looked like shadows of their former selves

100% this. That was fucking incredible.

Big Sam Whitelock with the last turnover. What a legend.

[chimoaus]

The Roigard Christie selection did not matter in the end.

Yeah, that Aaron Smith yellow was pretty dubious, but we won it despite the ref and his crew.
