    Crowd still pouring in or is that the rain? New Zealand should invest in covered stadiums everywhere. Ridiculous playing in this weather.

    Nah fuck that, playing in the rain is part of the game. IMO they should ban non grass fields and covered stadiums

    Guilty, that was Flight Level 100 over my head!

    Good run by Stevenson who could've done more if Webber didn't check his emails first.

    Weber showing why he's not in ABs, slower than TJ? We'll soon see

    Irish d is good, but they look half a foot offside to me most of the time.

    Diplomatic way to say they're offside. 😉

    Irish reload on defence very quickly, and do just enough with their hands at the ruck to make it a bit of a mess, and often just a little slow

    Certainly was there. Very fast but almost always half a step to early

    that wide pod NZ teams love off 9 just doesn't add shit does it? it just results in static ball.

    They're well drilled and obviously work hard. Not difficult to see Andy's experience there.

    just gives the backline less space to do anything
