Well ... 10-7
Ireland barely better than us. So score is about right.
We're doing some good stuff (the pop passing into space) but fucking up.
I'd like our forwards to start being forwards.
Give our players to Andy Farrell......guarantee you they look a hell of a lot better.

Depressing.
Also, that half took 52 mins.
Given the TMO is watching for so much these days and lots of talking in the ear about this and that, things will drag on. But this ref doesn’t have great game management. Watched him a few times and there’s always a lot of talking and consulting.

Have these blokes even trained all week? Judging by the socials it's all been promo bullshit.
Hanging with the Chicago Bulls, hanging with the Chicago Bears, doing content with Barstool and other influencers... Complete clown show.
As long as they've looked cool in their bulls singlets that's the main thing.

The fact that the ref didnt know there was screen for him to look at on the sideline for the red card, in conjucntion with people on this forum, planet rugby, and "pros" on comms on both UK and NZ tv not knowing whether it was a permanent or 20 minute red , tells you all you need to know about the state of the game.

ABs need some straightening runners in their attack and more direct up front - Degroot only man standing up in the tight

I hate this team. 20 mins up.
Get papalii in, Morons
If Dalton’s our saviour we really are in trouble.

Worst All Blacks team of the last 50 years?
Certainly the least entertaining and likeable that I can remember.
Would be pretty close

Halftime and Mils is the only one speaking any sense.

Ireland have been shit too - but I'm sorry - this is just fucking boring. You compare this product to the NPC and Super Rugby and it is night and day.
This isn't rugby I'm afraid. It's two phases then box kick, it's pedantic rulings, it's the TMO reffing from the sideline - it's just straight horseshit.

@hikastags The marketing tail wagging the rugby dog. The story of the last five years as NZR ‘seeks to monetise the AB brand and extend its footprint among a wider group of stakeholders’. Razor designed by Saatchi and Saatchi.
