Reading back the in game comments vs post game are amusing...
Maybe things are starting to turn, sure plenty to work on but winning is winning
The defence was excellent tonight and the front five were really good. The attack was more patchy, but some good moments. I think Ireland were rusty, the ABs showed more energy too

Can't decide who was better, Rieko or Amua. Both were outstanding tonight.
Yeah Reiko very good tonight. That pass he made to put Telea in space is exactly what we need more out of him going forward.

Interesting to hear Aumua said they felt quite fresh at halftime given the stop start nature.
His fitness must be top notch
75 mins then 6 days later 78. Some of his tackles were scary as, his attack is always great
He’s an animal.

Only saw 2nd half but I continue to have serious reservations about Jordan at 15.
Needs to sort out cleaning up a bouncing ball, but he gives us something Beaudy doesn’t from 15.
What is that something? I don't see it. Certainly isn't decision making.
Eh, he scores every week.

Really interested in the ten decision now. Has to be roigard, neither ten have had a good go with him yet
Wow. Bold
Haha, just poor English had to be roigard at nine
He'd be a good 10 too I reckon.

Watched it in an Irish pub. Got to be some of the most fair weather, thin skinned supporters I’ve ever come across. Most had their back to the screen with 10 to go.
Just makes it so much for satisfying.
They are horrible.

Fucking unreal the doomsdayers on here. It was a shit night for rugby but the boys wanted to play. They are creating a lot of indecision in the opposition defence, they're just fucking up with hands.
I still think Roigard off the bench is good for us right now. Ratima dealt with a lot of shit that NB shouldn't have allowed as well as the big boys. I'd rather Roigard finish with decent minutes than Rat. Funnychiw quickly everyone has turned on him.
Second week in a row where the boys have managed the last 20 to come through. They didn't let the game get away in the second half and did the business.
Jordie and Rieks were superb. They're cart horses in the midfield.CammyR. His huge left boot got us out of that last ten. Big booming kicks.
Fuck the D-Mac hate. He's causing all sorts of shit. He kicked his goals and challenged the line.
Boys took most of the bombs too. Superb.
How good does AA look now he has some minutes on the field. So now we have CT, ST, AA and a few others below them.
I've been harping on for yonks ever since they decided to put Marky Mark on the left his best position is 14. He just beats defenders like nobody's business.
Not hearing too much of the Razor hate at the moment...

Berry getting shit, but I thought the way he reffed the breakdown suited us.
I was going to post the same thing. A NH ref would have likely meant the breakdown would have been even more of a free-for-all. Berry penalised players for not rolling away more than many other refs would have.

@Jet said in All Blacks vs Ireland:
The worst set of fans I’ve ever sat amongst.
Outside the stadium in the city in a non rugby capacity, lovely people.
During a match a horrible set of bastards.
Good luck to em.Kunts.
I've met some nice ones. Clearly you struck a bad batch. Or I struck a good batch...

Start Roigard next week so we can see him against DuPont.
Antoin will be looking for an autograph.
He'll have to catch him first

That Nisbo stat is insane, he’s called 54% of all AB tests.

@Billy-Tell said in All Blacks vs Ireland:
I don’t care if Berry is letting stuff go. Ratima needs to assert his authority.
If he tries to get too in involved , JGP scrags him. That was the forwards job to clean up his ball.

Jordie Barrett after the card was fucking good too. The dinky shit from the first half was put away and he just carried. Defended really well, and owned the kick off space. His best half hour in a while as well
