This is amazing really
I can't tell you what we've done well, and we're hammering them
In the end only points matter

Ireland are buggered and shit. That's how we've done it. This is a paper over the cracks win.

BB and JB kicked to keep them pinned back. The forwards upped the linespeed, and started tackling with some venom, we are passing around their defence and there is space.
We look fitter, and we are winning the scrum battle.

Home and hosed
Terrible kick chase gets punished
Learned nothing from Māori match
And NZ are committing 1 maybe 2 to the breakdown and looking to turn the ball over in the wider channels
And Ireland are playing in to their hands

BB kicking still aimless, but shines in general play.

@mariner4life Agree and disagree. We get high on these wins but if this was SA and there was a forward and territorial battle would the result be the same? We do well in the helter skelter game but what about when it counts?

Ireland couldn't maintain their intensity for more than even 20 minutes. I thought they'd go at least 50 minutes but they looked gassed at the end there and the penalties started mounting.
ABs definitely started growing in confidence, Tupaea led the way there for the backs and the rest followed. Some really classy touches from Beauden as well, people massively over state how bad his punting is. It's not a strength but he can boot the hall 60m+ no worries, near the start he won the game of force back with a long kick into space and got us on the front foot.
Looking for a much more accurate second 40 to really put them to the sword.
