RWC QF: All Blacks v Ireland
-
According to Rugby Onslaught...
What we understand Ioane said to Sexton was something along the lines of: “Enjoy retirement and don’t miss the flight home”.
Brodie Retallick got one back on Irish back row Peter O’Mahony, allegedly telling him: “Oi Peter, four more years you ****wit”.

Awesome

@gt12 seems plenty of Irish media have short memories, POM was being lauded for his sledge on Cane and even something he said to one of the Scots after thier pool match...
There is banter, which I am fine with and if the above was what happened, all good

I think that info is from a screenshot from a Whatsapp exchange between Cane and a friend. Seems unlikely that a mate of Canes would screenshot their exchange and share it around.
But it would also be unlikely that a rugby team would snort drugs off the ranfurly shield, snap it in two and then share it on social media. So who knows

According to the Roar:
O’Mahony was later asked to give his own reaction to the incident last year, which came after Ireland sealed a historic come-from-behind series win over the All Blacks in New Zealand, but bluntly said it was a “bullshit question”.
Don't give it if you can't take it mate.

Bunch of fucken sooks. Didn't hear the ABs wailing when we lost that series. Or the Lions series. Or the 2007 RWC QF. Fucken sooks

@MajorRage there were many Irish passes that looked a little forwards.
Who's the pillock who always says SavAYa?
and TamEYEti WilliamsRupert Cox probably. Has him on the Stan commentary. Idiot has Kal Te Nana effectively correcting him and still he keeps up the SarVayer.
I don’t mind the RWC commentary team. They are pretty fair. KT overplayed the whole “no one gave NZ a chance” line.

@JayCee was a ruck about phase 14, BR was over the ball, should have ended there, Barnes called away and BR quickly pulled away, so often players keep going when they have won it...the discipline in those 30 odd phases was something rarely seen by this AB side.
I think a couple of those ruck no calls were marginal
Retallick over the ball - he was quick to call no hands
Ardie over the ball - did Ardie fully detach as the tackler?
T. Williams offside - close but pulled away after one extra long go at it.
Ioane neck roll - looked to have started around the shoulders and then go higher -
i've seen another angle of the Ioane/Sexton "incident" and that makes it look for all money like the first words come from the guy in green (when Iaone had moved on to shake the next guys hand), Ioane chirps back, and Sexton blows up.
It's all dumb shit and i wish people would stop talking about it

He did a good job. I will say that the difference between Nuggy and almost any other scrumhalf is noticeable in terms of speed of pass, but holy shit even Richie's passing from the base looked disabled senior citizen in comparison.

and TamEYEti WilliamsBe thankful you don't have itv. Actually I drunkenly tweeted them to ask if it would be too hard to talk to the teams before a game about pronunciation. No response.
Fyangaranooka had a great game for a guy I've never heard of.

@MajorRage last year wasn't it? possibly the last time they played?

I agree it is a shit question, but he must have expected it. He cant disavow the sledge, so he should have owned up to it.
If he’d said ‘yeah, that one came back to bite me a bit, he was excellent today when it really counted for his team’ then I’d have a pretty different opinion of him. I imagine a Dane Coles or Gregan or Fitzpatrick would say something similar.
It’s fair that he might not have been in the right head space but perhaps that’s the point, he was happy to be a bully when we lost with quite a few things going against us.

Actually looking at it again TamEYEti doesn't sound too bad. Although Tah-mEYE-tee might work better.

Yeah, and Rieko pulled one out in the opening phases of the game I think it was so I wouldn't be pointing fingers.

@MajorRage said in RWC QF: All Blacks v Ireland:
not up to reporters to ask about a sledge delivered at an appropriate time years ago
That makes about zero sense.
