    Be thankful you don't have this Irish lot with Isa "you wouldn't guess he played rugby" O'Nacewa

      Considering how we started I'm quite shocked by the scoreline.

      Half of two halves.

        @mariner4life maybe his best position is an impact player. I just need to see more from Sotutu at test level. Right now I wouldn’t mind seeing a loose trio of Grace Papali’i and Sotutu, with Ardie off the bench.

        He’s had a beaut last ten mins though to be fair.

          Ireland go to shit when Sexton is not there and now he failed the hia. Does that mean he's out for next weekend too?

            Ireland look lost since Sexton went off.

              Ireland threw the kitchen sink at it in the first 15 minutes, and then had little left other than a mud backline in concrete shoes for the rest of the half.

                I can't tell you what we've done well, and we're hammering them

                In the end only points matter

                      The counter rucking and size in the backs are really nice changes

                        Ireland are buggered and shit. That's how we've done it. This is a paper over the cracks win.

                          So the takeaway from this is let the coaching group work from home?

                            That last 20 minutes was much better from the ABs.

                                      BB and JB kicked to keep them pinned back. The forwards upped the linespeed, and started tackling with some venom, we are passing around their defence and there is space.

                                      We look fitter, and we are winning the scrum battle.

                                          Home and hosed

                                          Terrible kick chase gets punished

                                          Learned nothing from Māori match

                                          And NZ are committing 1 maybe 2 to the breakdown and looking to turn the ball over in the wider channels

                                          And Ireland are playing in to their hands
