Sexton's send off

@MajorRage do they mention the moment after the whistle, which they make a point is important where it is clear Sexton says something to Ioane which would appear to have prompted Ioanes barb?

MajorRage

@taniwharugby only in passing.

To be fair, I do get where they are coming from and the point is valid.

Sexton doesn’t seem to have many sticking up for him in most comments I’ve read. Which I think says a lot.

@MajorRage oh absolutely, which makes you think there was more water under the bridge to have that much ill-feeling to give a serve like that.

Its been said now, Sexton will have to live with it, maybe Ioane regrets it, maybe not.

From what I read, I not keen on what Ioane said (if it is true etc), but neither am I keen on Sexton writing about it in book.
Bit of dickheads x 2 too me.

As shown here, Just-a-shit-O'Gara is spouting off at Rieko (7 minute mark) about a minute after the call (5:45 minute mark)

Seems strange for Rieko to be saying back ten after the whistle has been blown.

To put it into context you would expect even someone like the Wests Tigers could have found a way to score a try if they had 37 consecutive tackles.

Ah Jonny - Do you have to let it linger!

Israel Dagg's brutal response after Johnny Sexton exposes 'fake-humble' All Blacks and their 'no d***heads policy'

Ex-All Blacks fullback Israel Dagg has hit back at Johnny Sexton after extracts of his autobiography 'Obsessed' were published this week.

Tim

Worst players, worst fans. Irish rugby is a self righteous collection of chippy idiots. Awful people.

No Quarter

This only makes that quarter final win even more sweeter, it will haunt Sexton for the rest of his life. The send-off from Rieko is just something for him to latch on to, but it is the embarrassment of Ireland's best ever team being bundled out in the quarters yet again that is killing his soul.
