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

Given how they started after ten minutes in the sheds listening to Foster...

Brad Moar stated the coaches didn't say much at half time... evidence they don't coach

Then it's Foster's fault for Ireland's try after half-time as he didn't talk enough to the players

Take the fucken 3 points.

[hydro11]

I don't really see any reason not to take the 3 there.

That was dumb by Smith

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

Bower brain dead penalty you mean?

No the dumb kick by Barrett straight after the kick off they gave the ball away and started all that shit.

Are you talking about the kick to the 50m line that didn't find touch, as has been the tactic for all of our kicking?

If we can't defend from 50m out that's worrying

All Barretts kicking except for the grubber has been poor.

So that was the kick then. Again, massively over stating how bad his kicks are.

It’s been poor

Yep. Keep the momentum going.

[Bones]

T'oongarfarsar is playing well.

[Machpants]

Ardie fucking savea

[canefan]

Ardie. Best 12 in the business

[Jailbreak7]

Ok we should have taken the three

[Kirwan]

Lucky he scored that, greedy fuck. Unmarked player outside.

[Kruse]

One for the highlight reel, bitches.

[mariner4life]

Great fucking run!!!

[hydro11]

That's why Ardie is in the team. He isn't a number 7 or a number 8, but he is a brilliant rugby player.

[gt12]

That was pretty fucking nice from Ardie, and exactly where to use him on the edge there.

[Frank]

Fucking "Highlight Reel" does it again.

[No Quarter]

He needs to come up with a highlights reel celebration to stick it to the haters

[Donsteppa]

Nice line. Irish defenders weren't entirely keen on making a tackle there either - hoping he'd pass...

[Tim]

Great try. Weak as fuck defence.

[Steven Harris]

For all the negative discussion pre match about Scott Barrett, he’s been a total success as a big ball carrier ..
Great having that big extra body
