All Blacks vs Ireland

[Tim]

I really should not be awake tonight, but this game is too important.

Have a shitload of work to do this weekend, but this game is way too much.

Ireland/NZ rivalry has emerged in the last decade and should be celebrated. This is going to be a really tough contest.

[Canes4life]

Brian getting his excuses in early. Let’s hope we can munch them upfront with Furlong out.

Not wanting to jinx us but If I have a concern , it’s our defence against irelands attacking patterns

[Toddy]

@kiwiinmelb Munster's ability to get behind the defensive line of the AB's XV was impressive. Will be made even harder if we're penalised when the attacker intentionally runs into the defender.

[Mattasaurus]

I hope the ABs come out fizzing and put early points on ... take the crowd down a peg or too and not leave to much "interpretation" for Mr Berry....

Discipline will be paramount today - result too close to call for me. but got the ABs by 1 or more

[Machpants]

I have hope but no belief, as we've been so ill disciplined, struggled against the rush, and bamboozled by complex play - and those 3 are Ireland's hallmarks

Me too. If we had trouble with Englands decoy runners; Irelands will be much harder

[KiwiMurph]

Not confident but excited

[Toddy]

Hopefully they come out with this mindset

IRFU should have done this after the haka if they wanted to take out the heat

Good to see they aren't trying to cowardly trick themselves into dispelling any auras

[Mr Fish]

Looks like AJ Lam is in the stands with Barrett and Perenara - whistled up to replace Proctor evidently?

[canefan]

Does James Lowe know the anthem? 🧐

[Stag]
