Māori All Blacks v Ireland 2

[MN5]

Great that the fern has another deliberate knock on card to gripe about !

Good work refs, that was quite a long time between cards

[The Docter]

How did we become nieve

[Grooter]

Josh Ioane does my freaking head in

Why even ask if he could regather it and then say he can't regather it?

Ref had made his mind up. Assistants could only agree. Poor reffing

[taniwharugby]

Man our option taking is so shit

Because I imagine if there's a chance of him regathering, it's not foul play.

I was more meaning after the ref had seen the footage he was still asking the question.

[Billy Tell]

A prop could kick further than JI.

Absolutely brainless eh. Hugely telegraphed and the option wasn't even close to on anyway.

@Higgins You're really sitting to close to the Irish.

You are right about that, my Iwi is Ngati Carrickfergus

When did we decide that first fives don’t need to have a long punt as part of their essential skill set. I think we have missed something.

[taniwharugby]

Reckon NZR need to get DC on the payroll as a technical advisor cos our 10s are all pretty poor tactically and technically

[Steven Harris]

What ever happened to Josh Ioane ..?, just a shadow of the kid that broke into the All Blacks a few years back

Moments of brilliance...amongst so much averageness

We play heads up rugby, we don’t carry or kick for territory.

[Billy Tell]

I know of no situation to run out of 22 unless time just about up and you need 1 score. You have to go fir trrritory and attack lineout

About the same time we decided cross field kicks and chip kicks inside your own 22 were.

[Jailbreak7]

We have learned that J Ioane and Eklund should not be near an ABs jersey.
Grace, Z Sullivan, have pushed their cases, and Delaney, Suafoa, Stevenson look promising

[Bones]

Why was that "No" Dickson. That was exactly the same as the Irish "Steal".

Last game he was good though. Suits a running game.

[Higgins]

Yee haaaa, Higgins about to erupt into an Irish jig to celebrate this try!
