Rieko won't get a good rating in the media player ratings because they don't know what they are watching but he was brilliant
Did he have time to say his best wishes for any of the Irish players at the end of the game?

I think I might be a bit clouded on DMac by that little fuck around with Jordan. Otherwise he kicked lots and passed in front of his forwards.
The 2nd half was so good once we went back to 15.
Thought that was 90% on Jordan.
Dmac's vision for the try was brilliant, putting Sititi (I think) into space with the long cut out pass
-
We really shut them down. I’ve got to say, I’d be all for starting roigard and having hotham on the bench. Ireland really need a refresh. Squad and tactics. But not our problem

Great defender. Jury is still out if it’s his legs or head that’s gets him out of trouble.
He has a pair of bollocks on him though.
A proud Allblack is our Doppy.

Roigard is mustard.
It’s not even a conversation in my opinion.
It’s his jersey.

When roigard was on, huge difference to the team and DMac

Congrats fuckers, well deserved win. Ireland rudderless without a leader like Sexton, lacking in attacking ideas. Error count not acceptable and that's surely down to rustiness,. Frawley very poor when he came on for Crowley.
-
@The-Irishman play off 9. He's really fucking good.
-
ABs discipline was actually the best its been in ages... still not perfect but bloody good for us

We have no out halves of note.
We either play off 9 or need to find a gun soon.
Wont be winning a World Cup with DMAC, Beaudy or RMO
We just DOMINATED the number 1 team in the world that hasn't lost at home in near 20 matches (8 years).
How do we still have doomsdayers 😂Dmac was 10x better with Roigard on and pretty much won us the game with that skip pass in the end.
-
I'm not an expert but thought that was a good sold performance
Bench did a good job
So pleased my prediction was so wrong! -
@Jet said in All Blacks vs Ireland:
Biggest loser today is Cortez Ratima.
He was poor and lit was noticeable how much better Roigard looked straight away.
Ratima has had a big season and looks like he needs to be on a beach now.
He seems to have lots of things running through his head and as a consequence isn’t really clear on what he should be doing at each breakdown, which is where the hesitation starts
-
@Devon-Kiwi Yes Bench has won it for us twice now.
-
Those three Kiwi-Irish are pretty good, aren't they? Fuckers!
How good? They grounded out a win without going full retard. You could see the headless chook appear at times (it is going to take time to get fully rid of it) but generally a very pragmatic win. Exits good, close-in defense good,... Beyond stoked. -
@Old-Samurai-Jack very different to.the southern part of the year, today they were comfortable in the grind.
I reckon the team takes a lot out of that belief-wise
-
Berry getting shit, but I thought the way he reffed the breakdown suited us. Another ref might have let Ireland get more of an upper hand, as they play right to the line. Yes, he was a bit erratic, but all in all I think he was good for our play.
