Ireland v NZ - Chicago Showdown & Dublin Duel
-
@No-Quarter Id say its done, we dont have the game right now to score 3 times...that said, who knows what half time will bring
-
@Nepia didn't even realise Kaino was on the field until the play he was unable to stop Stander on the line....
-
2nd time we've now been caught like that...pathetic

2nd time Kaino has been caught like that. Very un-Kaino like performance, playing him at lock has backfired.
-
Ireland playing well and we are so far off our game...isnt really a contest right now

@Nepia said in Ireland v NZ - Chicago Showdown:
@Donsteppa One of them is playing lock.
Are you sure? We'd better take a census at halftime.

Nice of Sam Cane to do something.
Liam Squire successfully auditioning to be the new suitcase.
TBF to Cane, hardly any of them have done anytrhing.

You wish to be fair at this point of the game?
-
@Donsteppa why not...only fair the Irish get to win a game against us too

@SammyC said in Ireland v NZ - Chicago Showdown:
Irish forwards all over us, arrogant to think we could get away with Kaino at lock.
Read needs to get involved more, lead from the front
We've been arrogant enough to play without a goal kicker all year, so Kaino seemed like a logical extension.

There's a difference between fairness and sacrilege.

I guarantee we will win.
Not sure we've got the cavalry on the bench this time.
We're getting outplayed pretty badly and I'm not sure we've got many who can come on and turn that around.
I noted Marshy's comment in the build-up about how you don't need to be tall in the lineout these days and I thought, "Really? I wonder why it is that Retallick and Whitelock are both a lot more than 2 metres tall."
-
So Eddie Jones was right - we do have weaknesses.

Ryan Crotty to the resc... oh.
