The only negative thing I can say is the ref is taking an age to set the scrum

Blackadder, Papali’i and our backs have made some great tackles.
Moody as well has made a lot for a prop.
-
Fantastic defence from the All Blacks ,but far too much rugby being played in their own half which brings this official into play
@steven-harris yep. The defense has been great but we need to start keeping possession. Is this what we expect from our forwards?
-
Ireland are opening us up far too easily. Good desperate defence on the line but we don't seem to be reading their backline moves too well.
We desperately need to get some possesion in the 2nd half. Can't continue to tackle forever.
@akan004 We're still kicking away far too much good ball for my liking, plays right into their hands
-
Where is the All Blacks much vaunted precision? A stupid kick by Perenara giving the ball straight back to them, a stupid pass by 7 to no-one - they invited Ireland to camp on their line for damn near 20 minutes!

Yeah, Blackadder late hit on Sexton put us under a lot of pressure as well. We cut the silly stuff out and we'll get on top of this Ireland team.

The sweet, sweet sound of Irish boos.
The Irish are not happy they missed out on 2023 RWC. But honestly their crowds are a bit insufferable. We’ve not had any brain farts by reacting to the crowd and the niggle so that’s a plus.
I really think we need to keep it in the forwards a tad more before spinning it.

I don't mind it, but if Akira did that I wonder if we would chalk it down to his workrate?

Yeah, a feature of AB teams recently. We need a Steyn to kick it well into their territory and play the percentages.

Carter’s sweeping left boot wouldn’t go astray right now

Savea throwing the ball over the touch line did that as well.
Blackadder has put a shit load of work in. -
Have a guess.

Or Izzy's

Yeah Dagg into first receiver with the big boot.
Did I ever mention that he would’ve made a great 1st 5
-
This a real test match. ABs must not loss structure. Keep patience.
-
The All Blacks have crawled through that half with 27% territory and 27% (or similar) possession!!!
