All Blacks v Ireland - 2nd Test
-
Ireland must be wondering why they are only 3 points ahead and it must be getting into their heads.
The kicking has been woeful, too many players doing dumb stuff and no calming down and riding out pressure. But the composure when under the pump in the last 15m has been really, really impressive. Players starting to up their game and a brave decision by Cane to go for the corner backed up by the team stepping up.
IF we win this - and it's a bloody big IF - it could well be a turning point. The subs are going to be crucial.

@booboo yeah no way Jordie was saving that try.
Rugby has become a joke though.
No one involved seems to be able sort this shit out, somehow, league often called more physical manages to deal with it.

Am I correct in thinking that the All Blacks have three props on the field at the moment?
When all carded players came back on it was a bit confusing and now Ardie is off because when needed an extra prop for the scrums?
Angus is off for the game.

Why do we kick (poorly) and hand the ball back to Ireland midway 22 and halfway with box kicks. No wonder we end up playing without the ball, defending.
I have no idea, seems retarded. Almost like we copying what the NH was doing to us 5 years ago.

Ireland would have to be the least likeable international team. What a bunch of whining plums.
The Karens of World Rugby.
OK, that made me laugh. Sexton storms up the TMO box. “I would like to speak to the manager.”
Even my 88 year old mother said “that guy’s acting like a spoiled toddler “

@Kirwan yeah was about as good as you will get on a long lineout throw!
Yeah that was a good call and the throw was on the money by Taylor.
Time for our experienced boys to step up in this half and bring it home.
