Conversely - ireland look excellent. Good speed, physicality and accuracy.

Just playing the most basic of games and tearing us apart.

Could do with another 6 Carters

[Stargazer]

The AB7s are missing way too many tackles. Yes, with a man still in the bin, but still .... Ireland score again.

0 - 31 Ireland

Carters

Leroy Carter hasn't been good in this game either.

[canefan]

Two quick tries, but too little too late I think

[Stargazer]

Finally. That's how to do it. Well done Cody Vai.

7 - 31 Ireland

[Stargazer]

Now Cody Vai scores NZ's second.

14 - 31 Ireland

He's been surrounded by dross.

Class from Ireland

Deserved thrashing

[Bones]

Fucking Irish player comes flying over the top off his feet, lands on the wrong side and just ignored.

I think we found our new Rasta

[Stargazer]

Yuck. Ireland score another one.

14 - 36 Ireland

[Bones]

Finally finds an Irish infringement and it's for taking the kick too far in front of the line. Sums it up.

[Stargazer]

One last try to NZ scored by McGarvey-Black.

Well-deserved win to Ireland. AB7s were terrible and didn't deserve to go to the Cup semis.

FT: AB7s 21 - 36 Ireland

[Stargazer]

The AB7s were so bad that they may miss out on the play-off for 5th place. They don't play semis for those lower ranked places. It's best QF loser v 2nd best QF loser for 5th place and the other two QF losers play for 7th place.

[Stargazer]

Canada lost 0 - 33 to Argentina, so that's worse than the AB7s.
We have to hope for the Blitzboks to blitz the Aussies or Fiji/France to do that to their opponent.

[Stargazer]

Okay, the Aussies blitzing the Blitzboks works for us as well.
HT: Aussies 14 - 0 RSA (that's not enough yet)

[Stargazer]

Another try for the Aussies!

21 - 0 Oz

[Stargazer]

And again!

28 - 0 Australia

[NTA]

Had the world gone mad??

[Stargazer]

FT: Australia 28 - 0 South Africa

Both South Africa and Canada suffered bigger losses in their QFs than NZ. So if I've understood the rules correctly, the AB7s will play for 5th place.

[Stargazer]

@NTA The Aussies looked very good in that game!
