We didn’t deserve to even draw that. Completely outplayed

Out coached and out skilled.

[No Quarter]

Yup, congrats to Ireland, easily the better team and the try that ended up winning it was a thing of beauty.

[Crazy Horse]

Very smart game plans from the AB's this year. Giving nothing away for next year!

[ACT Crusader]

We started to look good, in the 78th minute.

Retallick argghhhhhhh. We had players out wide too.

Well done Ireland.

Not too concerned. It all has a familiar feel to 2014 to me.

[Donsteppa]

Well done Ireland.

Hansen, put some actual thought into the rocks under your beach towel this summer unlike last year.

Maybe even call Akira into your wider squad of 1,207 assorted professional and amateur players.

[Damo]

We were pretty dreadful in that game. What has happened to our ability to penetrate and score tries?

@hydro11

Ian Foster's attack plans not good enough against the modern, super organised, super committed defences.

[SammyC]

Perenara and Barrett are the most ball greedy fuckwits in the team.
Perenara only passes it if he’s fucked up all other options

In a weird way I’m glad we lost , these narrow out of jail wins put band aids on our weaknesses

[Mokey]

We were rubbish in pretty much every facet of the game. Ireland thoroughly deserved to win.

I hope they are forced to watch an endless tape of the box kicks and shit passes from this game to the tune of baby shark.

But will they learn. They don’t seem to over the last two seasons...

[Machpants]

Great game, Ireland deserved winners - intensity on defence; silly penalties in the first half, butter fingers and not holding onto the ball ( kicking away or stupid offloads) defeated abs on attack

Our attack is fine. We had the opportunities to score points, we just didn't get over the line. That is on the players not the coaches.

We started to look good in the 50th minute but fucked it up with our continuous kicking. Had we been more patient, we would have scored.

[Stargazer]

Some of the subs came on too late and for the wrong players.

Particularly, Mo'unga should have come on sooner; Todd, too and should have replaced Read.
