That last 20 minutes was much better from the ABs.

First 20 minutes - playing how the coaches told them
Last 20 minutes - playing their natural game

All Blacks play shit - Foster to blame for being a shit coach

All Blacks play well - Foster to blame for being a shit coach

Good start from Ireland, all from our inability to exit.

[Duluth]

Irish have a rest and start winning the contact again

[hydro11]

Good try Ireland. I think our defence was okay there - just can't give Ireland chances down this end of the field.

[Jailbreak7]

What no TMO replay

[broughie]

@Victor-Meldrew Perhaps he is just not good enough despite the results.

Need to clear out of our danger zone. We have handed the ball back softly several times

The initial major go-forward Ireland got from that phase was when Ardie rode the guy to the ground allowing him to make 3+ meters rather than crunching him.

All came from a poor Barrett kick it put us under heaps of pressure.

Good fucking try that. They are a bloody good side when they can build phases, they can get the ball.to space so well

Yup he's 90% shit kicking

[Steven Harris]

ABs give away so many penalties that are not required

[Stag]

@Victor-Meldrew is really doesn’t matter how the All Blacks play, Foster is a shit coach, that’s just a fact.

Bower brain dead penalty you mean?

[kiwiinmelb]

We have got to make sure we don’t spend long periods defending

[KiwiMurph]

Discipline has gone to shit since halftime.

Great TO by Codie. I like this QT kid. Nothing fancy but exudes calm
