All Blacks v Ireland II

[chimoaus]

That O'Brien is some player.

Payne wins a turnover on his knee, or as the Irish commentators call it "on his feet"

[SimonAdd_2]

All Blacks have given away 4 high-tackle penalties now, Fekitoa's could easily have been red, given the recent World Rugby 'crack-down'.

Smith should have punted it for mine.

[Luigi]

3 pts a sin bin is not enough.

[Toddy]

Why the fu*k would they not clear it.

[Donsteppa]

Smith finally dragged.

[Tordah]

that was a perfectly legal steal by TJP, Peyper really fucks this game up

[Donsteppa]

Fucking penalties in good field position. Reminds me of the Blackadder quote about 'who is sharing the family brain cell today'...

[African Monkey]

@Tordah O'Brien has done the exact same all game.

[kiwiinmelb]

and the commentators dont tell us who the changes are , have to try and listen to ground announcer

This is one thing they really need to look at we've had too many of these stupid high or dangerous tackles (or could be perceived as high with a home TV director) all season dating back to Ben Smith's tip tackle in the RWC final.

We've had as many tonight as I can remember during the whole Henry era.

[Stargazer]

They can say what they want about the penalty count against the ABs, but half of those penalties were after the Irish moaning convinced the ref there was something wrong that wasn't actually worth a penalty.

[No Quarter]

And TJP looks over to Aaron Smith and says "that's how you kick".

[Luigi]

I'm really getting fed up with hearing the word 'Chicago'

[rotated]

"Fucking hell sir?" asks TJP.

[Stargazer]

Fuck off with your "Whitelock's tackle being high". He's a fucking giraffe. Everything he does seems high.

[Tordah]

no wonder the crowds boos every tackle around the shoulders, when they're "educated" by these idiot commentators

[No Quarter]

Damn if Cruds catches that it's all over. Dagg looking very good.

[taniwharugby]

Are we still losing or have we started our comeback?
