All Blacks vs Ireland - series decider

[IrishPat]

As an Irishman, I would like to suggest the All Blacks send young players to Ireland for a season to work on basic skills and not committing errors.

If you’re never competing a KO why not kick it proper deep

[stodders]

Have ABs ever fired a coach before? The last of Foster's firsts?

[MiketheSnow]

Yes Ireland are well coached but the desire to run and pass the ball and put the man in space is the difference

@Victor-Meldrew Don't kick the dog.

The cats have fucked off outside. Can't think why...

[stodders]

@IrishPat so you can poach them?

@stodders I don’t think the NZRU would do it.

Time for the ‘spend more time with family’ moment I think.

Apologies if it's already been stated but it's more than a little jarring that their NZers are playing infinitely better than ours.

I think that is the most damning evidence. In a different environment with different coaches, they are playing to their full potential.

Horrible feeling not actually wanting the All Blacks to win if it means Foster keeping his job…

This is fucked up from the officials. Ireland defending from 2 metres in front of the offside line since halftime, holding tackled players and then not rolling away. Atrocious

We may have got a try, but how tortuous was it to get there? And the only reason we got there was a bit of luck. Utter arse

How many penalty advantages there?

That desire is fostered by having a clear effective platform which allows the players to express their skills

Aaron Smith’s passing has been terrible.

[Nevorian]

Get your cards ready Wayne

[Tim]

3rd quarter using the ball!

Def should have been a yellow in there for deliberated showing the ball
