What an utter arsehole Rob Kearney is! He could have shown some humility on the final whistle and said “I called the All Blacks defensive passive. I was wrong.”
Instead he bagged his own team after they slogged their guts for 80 minutes. Irish Rugby deserves better than smug gits like him.
Not sure if I’m missing something here ?
Ireland have got “smug gits” like Sexton, O’Mahoney and before them O’Driscoll so I’m unsure what Kearney has said that’s so offensive ?

Unsure if this image has been posted already, but that meant something...

We'd never just bag our team after we lost ...

ABs maul right before Ardie's 34th minute try was clearly illegal - lifters offside.
Ireland's maul on 38:05 exactly the same.
Great dart by JGP. All tries scores by Kiwis so far.
Nope, first one was by a Tongan

Best bits:
Cane walking on
Temaiti Williams face running on
JB legacy save
80 mins of determination, accuracy and intelligenceWorst bits:
Some of the up n undersI'd like to see Roigard (bench), Dmac and Telea next game.

That double pump pass by Jordie in the lead up to the first try was nice
-
Rob Kearney was a bog average player so why would anyone care what he thinks?

Don't see what was wrong with his comments. He was right: Ireland didn't play near their potential (based on the 54 minutes I've seen) and lost because it it.
I'm mindful that you get to sit in the position of a winning team's fan, and feel a degree of sympathy for Ireland.
Were you as sanguine when the ABs didn't win any RWC between 87 and 2011?

As you absolutely love to say
They didn't because we didn't let them

Actually I love to point out that ABs fans never believe opposition pressure them into errors, they'd rather say "we played shit bro" and barely ever give the other side credit.
Here the ABs definitely worked their arses off for the win, but Ireland were clearly not firing from early on.

AB pressure didn't force Doris to drop the ball cold.
ABs pressure didn't stop Ireland contesting the high ball on several occasions.
AB pressure wasn't responsible for all the Ireland lineout issues.AB pressure and execution won the game, but the pressure Ireland put on themselves clearly was a factor.
