    Those have been YCs for the last four years or so. It was dumb.

      Another one of those pointless YC that can’t be avoided. The lawmakers haven’t played rugby.

        Dreadful atmosphere in the stadium, but reflective of the game. Woeful by Ireland, AB's marginally better and deserve the lead.

        50000 people from the big 4 accounting companies, talking about their property portfolios . Insufferable bastards.

          I am hopeful they change 9 at halftime but not overly confident.
          What a shame Ratima has gone backwards-are the Irish denting his confidence?

            Jordie Barrett just needed to aim at the waist and it wouldn't have been high. Not crazy difficult...

                The All Blacks are not committing enough players in the rucks, so they can't have quick ball and this doesn't help Ratima either.

                        So Ardie gets a high shot down the other end and only a PK. Why wasn't that a YC???

                        Seatbelt type tackle, not shoulder to the head. Totally different

                        Yeah one was deliberately high, the other he was crouched. Piss off if you think Jordie deserved to be YC. It's ridiculous.

                        Lol never said that he deserved it. You've obviously not watched rugby for years, because under the current interpretation yellow all day.

                          There is an element of that .. but Ratima has also been noticeably indecisive on more than one occasion.

                            Most of the Irish counter rucks could be penalized as they lose their feet and often come from the side.

                                Our possession, territory, and tackle stats all well in favour to the ABs. Hopefully this starts to translate onto the scoreboard

                                  Yeah, there are good signs. Defence is really good both in close and out wide. Ruck work is excellent. Like all good teams they are right on the edge.

                                  And they had a couple of very good attacks as well, lethal when over the advantage line on early phase.

                                          If the All Blacks just commit an extra player to each attacking ruck then they should be fine - and do a better job of following up when players make mini breaks.
