@KiwiMurph LOL , yeah am sure the allblacks are pretrified this week. Kearney is the same eijit who said before the quarter final last year not one single allblacks player was better than any Irish player
Why would the All Blacks be scared of a team that's never made it further than a WC quarter-final? Kearny is a moron.
I really hope the ABs pull out their performance of the year and put these guys in their place. The Irish fans on social media are even worse than the English, they believe their own hype and are still dining out on that test series win in New Zealand which now feels like a decade ago.
They have a selective morality too.....
No mention of breaking Retallicks eye socket, Aki concussing Tungafasi with ahead high dangerous cleanout or Sean O Brien sparking Naholo out in the Lions tour with his Matfield esque padded forearm.
And they are just off the top of my head.They are a whinging bunch of Karmeichel Hunts.
They should tarmac the kip to make a car park for England.
Fuck me the whinging here is next level. Some of you are worse than the SA fans. Did an Irishman fuck your wife/husband?
-
@The-Irishman I look forward to the replies here when New Zealand wakes up in a few hours.
As far as the whinging goes, I think the Irish have the monopoly on it

4 Southern hemisphere lads in the backline.

That 23 is more than capable of beating NZ
-
The Irish bench is weak. Many of those players are not that good or are way past their prime. Starting XV is decent. No Furlong and no Sheehan weakens their front row.
-
@Billy-Tell it should be a repeat of 2023 where the ABs dominate the scrum and lineout. Should tear that bench front row to pieces

No Procter again. Cam should have started. Love should have been on the bench.

@Jailbreak7 Proctor went home for the birth of his child

I'm not convinced Roigard is 100% match fit - took a while to get up to full speed when he came on against England Think they are being very careful with him.

I'm a gazillion times more comfortable with Perofeta covering ten. Love hasn't played there in years has he? And he was pretty poor.
-
@Billy-Tell 100% correct.
