              that was a better scrum though.

              Think they should actually be happy to be only 3 down TBH

                  Last scrum of the half much better.

                  Given the penalty count I will take that half time scoreline.

                  My biggest concern in this match was Ireland coming out of the blocks fast and getting away to a big lead early on before we work into the match.

                  Epic 2nd 40 coming up.

                    Interesting comment by the referee that that next penalty offence committed by the visiting team will see a player invited to spend ten minutes in the sin bin. That presumably means that if the next penalty the All Blacks concede is hot on the Irish goal line in the 79th minute they are automatically subjected to a player being yellow carded.

                        He looked absolutely buggered at about the 35 minute mark.

                          Still think Barrett doesn't have the passing game to beat a defence like this.

                            So we are getting done at scrum time, not winning the contact in D, and racking up a lot of penalties? If so Ireland are not getting much profit points-wise. Although a yellow would open things up... are we flustered with ball in hand? Looking likely to break their line?

                            @paekakboyz We haven't looked like breaking their line at all. Our attack looks very predictable and our defence is passive as per usual. They look a lot more organised and have a heap of backline moves. They look better coached to be honest.

                              Reminds me of the Crusaders shutting down the hurricanes at the moment. Barrett unable to unlock the rush defense

                                Ireland look good, NZ look mediocre. Three points deficit is a good net result from what was on show there. Irish defence very impressive, their attack is as unimaginative as the ABs'.

                                  Ireland’s defence is very good so not easy to find a way through. On D our timing of the rush is wrong more often than not.

                                    Yeah Irish commentators are horrendous. Just cheerleaders.

                                    Good game.

                                    Karl looks out on his feet in defence.

                                    Squire again average before departing.

                                      AB got reemed in that half, fortunate to be only three points down. Big half time for Mr Hansen. How does he get his players to turn this around?

                                        Ireland well on top. Disappointing to see our scrum go backwards. We can't really do anything to stop them keeping the ball on attack. We just have to be smart about whether we concede penalties. Read's penalty for offside was really dumb at the end there.

                                        We have sort of attacked like Ireland when we have had the ball. We have shown a bit of patience but haven't got the quick ball to break their line.

                                          We are bloody lucky to be only down 9-6, and to leave the field with 15 men. Way, way too many stupid fucking penalties. Not liking what is happening with the scrum either when we have been pretty solid in prior games.
