Aaron Smith is a liability. Needs to be pulled now.

He sems to have a shorter fuse than usual

You've seen the photos?

Ireland have 3 replacements already , us 1 ,
Could be crucial later with the pace of the game

Nah, I've had too much to drink

[Bones]

How was Smith's card even a penalty? Ball was out, he was onside and came right through the middle with no hands.

Yet Savea gets tackled and Best gets a turnover with help from his players on the ground, Whitelock gets a turnover and it's scrum Ireland. Righto...

Good argument for a PT on the deliberate knock on by Trimble

Agree but think it was a genuine attempt rather than a deliberate spoiler.
There was a definite deliberate knock on later from an Irish player reaching one handed for a high ball

Yeah Rob kearney, serial whinger as well - he doesn't understand that if he is trying to control a ball he is eligible to be tackled

[No Quarter]

Solid D.

[Donsteppa]

A lot of phases to defend because of a half-pie clearance from The World's Best Halfback.

Unable to watch game, but cracks me up reading this thread...how much are we losing by?

[rotated]

Individually the forwards are all holding their form at ruck time and the defensive structure is holding comfortably.

Counter attack try coming up in the next few Irish attacking phases.

[Donsteppa]

Defensive bomb from The World's Best Halfback.

Ireland 60, All Blacks -12.

[African Monkey]

Get Aaron Simth off.

[No Quarter]

Fekitoa reflex action but off to the bin.

A Smith needs to be pulled ASAP.

[Stargazer]

Shit, now Fekitoa off with a YC for a high tackle.

40-29. We are in the 2088th minute of the Chicago test going by the Irish comms.

Correction, not a reflex action. Just a shit tackle.

Bollocks, he had time to line that up and just got it wrong and made a bad call.

How was that yellow but Sexton on Barrett not even a penalty?

[DMX]

Get Aaron Smith off!

[Stargazer]

Moody replaced by Crockett. Moody had a good game without dickhead behaviour.

[Tim]

What does Arron Smith have to do to be dropped? He is way out of form.
