All Blacks vs Ireland
-
Think the grief being aimed at Ratima and praise at Cam is unfair tbh, forwards were sloppy in the first half, Ireland were all over the breakdown and he was getting shit ball under pressure, second half ABs tightened up and went forward, almost an armchair ride
-
Solid win, only real two blights were.... Jordies Yellow and the two helterskelter periods in our own 22.
I think the ABs inside channel defence was massive the Irish didn't want to hit up after the first 20mins... they kept looking for the AB tackler and made numerous handling errors.
Bench was very strong, Roigard to start surely.
I am still unsettled with 10 but that would be Dmacs best 80mins in the Black 10 imo.
Felt Berry let Irish away with loads of infringements in the first 30mins.
The finishing loose trio looked bloody good.

Lol the clowns on Sky are talking up DMac
His goal kicking was brilliant
We need to go full yank football and just bring him on your goal kicks

That will fucking do me 3 from 3 on the NH tour when people were saying we wouldn’t win any of the big 3 well that’s 2 done.
I always said the results were less important than how we played, We were average last week and went to sleep - again.
Not tonight though. We still fucked up way too often but found a way to get thru the tough periods. Focus, leadership and headspace was up there with last years RWC.
Outstanding game.

DMac was way better with roigard on. It's like he didn't feel he had to do everything.
Still not a good night though.
Man of the match? The fuck?
-
Great game by DMac. Jordan still gives me the shits bringing the ball back, lucky he’s so good at scoring tries…

Nah - he had ample opportunity to get the ball out but chose to fap around on at least 3 separate occasions... it was noticeable how much more quickly Cam got the ball out of the rucks.

So well deserved, ABs comfortably the better side and a few forwards really emerging. Can’t work out if Ireland are on the way down from last years peak or if they’re rusty. I’m beginning to suspect the former
My thoughts too Dodgie
-
I was f***n nervous up to 75min
