Be patient. It will break eventually. Taking them in 3s is fine for the moment.

[nzzp]

Also, good to see us finally waiting for a penalty to chance our arm. It's very NH, and smart rugby these days.

[gt12]

No idea how we will break that D down from phase play, hence funky kicks may be the way to win

[sparky]

NZ 3 Ireland 0 after 7 minutes.

[canefan]

I like our tactics there. Put the cross kicks away though

[chimoaus]

Clear tactic to go up the guts which I like.

[KiwiMurph]

That was impressive but can't help but think we need more than 3

[African Monkey]

Taylor, Frizzell and Savea carrying strongly so far.
