Forget the analysis, forget the X’s and O’s, forget who got selected and who didn’t. The way we defended at the end showed what it means to be an All Black. Everything on the line for a do or die match. We were focused and we played for each other.
The irish really fell off. Didn't ask many questions - just static straight running - quite disappointing.
Conor and Jonny looked like shadows of their former selves -

@Joans-Town-Jones Hard to call those ones in the last minute. Thank goodness, Whitlock clearly won the turn over.
Bro, they were clear as mud. They had no problem sending AS to the bin over a fingertip and cover defence. Anyways. FUCK YES!!!!
Yeah, that Aaron Smith yellow was pretty dubious, but we won it despite the ref and his crew.

Conor and Jonny looked like shadows of their former selvesOur defensive shape shut down their attack, and then they didn't have anywhere to go

Whatever was said about discipline and composure at half-time, can we bottle it?

We were really tight in the midfield.

The Roigard Christie selection did not matter in the end.

Right decision too. Keep thr old heads on

Knockout games are slow games - we should know this by now. They grind rather than open up
