    Looks like the perfect storm building up for our hold on Eden Park to finally be broken. Statistically it is due anyway but the thought of being 4-2 down against the Irish over the last few years will be hard to swallow.

    Hopefully the ground will be nice and firm and we will be able to blow them away all over the park with some physical and attacking rugby

    Surely would be a good opportunity to bring in Joe Schmidt, at least to have him in the coaches box on Saturday

      What I would like to see happen is the team play amazingly well without Foster in the box, would be very ironic.

        Have some compassion for Foster FFS. You do realise that he will probably be exposed to listening to Justin Marshall for the first time in ages.

          Let's hope he takes time to read the fern and uncover the secrets to the AB's success that we all clearly know.

                  I guess I'm in the minority here, but I think the AB's will win comfortably. The Irish at the end of their season and an AB side under pressure to raise their standards

                    Explain? Surely Luke Jacobson after what was said at selection time.

                      ABs typically struggle in the first test of the season (not going to count the Tonga test last year) - i'm expecting a scrappy encounter.

                        I'm hoping to witness two wins live this week, and fine weather for both games would be good.

                              Nice. Good practise for when he's AB coach after the RWC

                                  @mariner4life just hope more players dont go down.

                                  Surely they only need isolate if they are ill and/or showing symptoms?

                                  Plenty of the normal flu going about at the moment, and like Covid, it hits some hard, and others barely and missing some, are they testing and isolating for that too?

                                    You isolate so you don't spread it to others not because you are ill.

                                      In hindsight, the Far North wasn't the best place to hold the AB camp at this time, particularly if the players were regularly interacting with the public and not wearing masks.

                                          @Bovidae said in All Blacks v Ireland - 1st Test:

                                          In hindsight, the Far North wasn't the best place to hold the AB camp at this time, particularly if the players were regularly interacting with the public and not wearing masks.

                                          Especially when far northers only isolate when they’re ill 😉
