This is quality.

Side that has no knockout wins thinks NZ are mentally weak. Lads, you're 12 years too late.

That was such a painful read. They even pulled out the whole Beaver-penalty-not-really-going-over-in-2011 thing.

What is that disjointed dribbling shit?

@Chester-Draws said in RWC: All Blacks v Ireland (QF2):

That's why it hurts so much more than other losses, where the opponents we lost to were actually better than us.

Yeah. Generally don't mind when we're beaten by a better team on the day - they deserve to win and be congratulated.

It's when we play like pistonwristedgibbons and lose that I want to start kicking things.

I know, right! Like we've got World Rugby and the refs in our pocket.

So that's why we win; financial and political clout.

@Bones

Have you taken up @Snowy's pastime?

If Snowy's pastime is finding the perfect Pinot Noir, then yes.

You forgot we control the weather in Japan as well.

Yeah, thinking England 2012 - I was at the club and didn't take that one bad at all, we got outplayed well and truly. Plus when I said we're gonna lose a pom piped up with a bet that he'd get a silver fern tattooed next to the wallaby on his arm (from another bet). I must follow up on that...

Nah, @Snowy is sweet. I've been in his basement since 2007. The food is pretty crap but the Wi-Fi is all-time.

Leave this here on the off chance that we don't see Steve losing his biscuit in teh future

@Bones

My only fond memory of 2007 was walking back to the car thru Cardiff and seeing a drunk twat in an England shirt, taunting any Kiwi he could find, getting decked by a Saffa fan.

[taniwharugby]

What do you mean? We got the hurricane in so we could have an extra weeks break in the build up to the knock out stages.

Just how far do we need to go to make some of you lot believe?

I haven't read it but I thought that was supposed to be a good place for rugby journalism?

A handy reference to the difference between UK, Great Britain and the British Isles

Fake news.

So did I . It’s Ireland based isn’t it? I guess in all the excitement they reverted to type. Tomorrow’s article will either be about the haka or poaching

Anyone have access to the IE article re AB's letting themselves down by sticking with Reece? I've just seen the back page as a screenshot.
