Oh give over.

[booboo]

Beauty.

[sparky]

@derm-mccrum I'll always back Black and tell it as it is.

[No Quarter]

Ireland have passed up a lot of points

[Yeetyaah]

Powder dry for the second half

[Derm McCrum]

@sparky

I’m sure you will.

[ACT Crusader]

We have fronted and our fitness and determination in defence has shone through.

Nice to get down our end every now and again though….

[Chris]

We will win this on the back of some gutsy D.
We done boys.

[BerniesCorner]

Dalton Papalii has been awesome

[Victor Meldrew]

I'd imagine the ABs will be happy with that - Ireland should be 14-20 points ahead.

[Billy Tell]

This match is what builds character. We are being dominated but our defence is maintaining it’s shape very well. Is that Scott’s job? In any case it’s match winning.

[No Quarter]

Fantastic effort from the ABs. Kept their heads and defended their asses off for the last 10 minutes of that half.

[MajorPom]

We will tire badly after all that defense. Time to change the forwards

[Derm McCrum]

@victor-meldrew

Well some points ahead. They’re gonna regret it I suspect. NZ bench should be better.

[ACT Crusader]

Blackadder, Papali’i and our backs have made some great tackles.

Yep. But hard to pick a bad forward TBH.

Will be their undoing

Not good enough to chase a game

Sub Henderson, carthorse

[Steven Harris]

Fantastic defence from the All Blacks ,but far too much rugby being played in their own half which brings this official into play

[sparky]

The sweet, sweet sound of Irish boos.
