Holland MOTM.

Holland, Kirifi, Tupaea, Lam were all strong. Flanders was very good at 8 before going off as well.

Quinn Tupaea has been outstanding. The big Dutchman was top notch. I'm quite happy with how big Oli Haig went as well. Proper 80 minute tight loosie. Everything he does is safe. Corey Kellow played like a bit of a missile since he came on

@SouthernMann bench did well ..loving the look of Holland

Finishes 38-24 to the All Blacks XV. No Irish vengeance, not tonight anyway.

[Kiwidom]

@SouthernMann Tupaea should be in the main AB team over Havilli

That miss from Flanders before he went off was proper dire shit though.

I will always be a fan of shooter especially his attack and kicking game but to be honest his tackling just ain’t up to this level .

Oh fk I missed that. Maybe why he was replaced?

Thought his carrying was really good for the most part.

Pretty big effort from Kirifi to play the NPC final last Saturday and then back it up with another big game today

I think if Holland is injury free next Super season, he should leap frog all the other All Black locks to partner captain Barrett.

[Bovidae]

It was good that this match was an arm wrestle as the players will learn more.

I haven't read the comments yet, but the officiating was poor. A couple more Day-mon specials that wiped out the Kirifi try (the Munster hooker kicked the ball in that ruck), and a obvious double movement on the knees in the last Munster try.

Love didn't have the impact he would have hoped for.

[Bovidae]

Also, the starting front row did well in the scrums. Not so much for the bench props. Georgia will be a good test as they love to scrum.

[Steven Harris]

Munster played well given the issues they have had at their club but I will say the best thing about the win from NZXV piece was Peter Mahoney loses to a team in Black again

[Bovidae]

POM wasn't even the captain but couldn't shut up in the 1st half. Muppet.

@nostrildamus Shaun Stevenson

thanks. Frustratingly talented player if only he could improve tackling and discipline (as in consistency and mindset). I just don't think, sadly, he will. Otherwise he'd be an AB.

@nostrildamus has all the tools to play international rugby but tackling is a non negotiable when your the last line of defence
All Blacks in the past have managed to hide the odd first five in defence but your fullback has to be courageous when it comes to defence
Staggered league were looking at him
