RWC QF: All Blacks v Ireland
-
-
I think the ABs are beating Barnes at the breakdown. There's 2 or 3 they should of had defensive penalties and don't get me started on the YC.

What the fuck has Rugby become if that is a YC
'tis modern footy. Fingertip = Yellow.

The benefit of smith getting a rest , he might go 80

So given Aaron Smith has the YC, does that mean he’ll play now to the end?
For our sake, I hope so.
He’s possibly only got another 160 minutes in black after this game, no risk of burning him out…

@DaGrubster Ireland at every back move is obstructing more than Frizzel. He was looking at the ball FFS.

I genuinely think the Irish are worried. They haven't been able to dominate us at the breakdown, get a stranglehold on the game and know it's stupid stuff (I'm talking to you Will Jordan & Shannon) which has kept them in the game.
We have less to fix than they have, I think
Let's see how fosters half time wisdom affects the team

@Joans-Town-Jones That too, utterly baffling
-
@Victor-Meldrew yep. AB kick off the second half. Have to pin Ireland in for 7 mins. Easier said than done

We give them too much space on the edges.
-
@antipodean yep. They are going after it. Even more so at the beginning of the second half
-
First 10 minutes are critical. Hold them off and we are OK. Let them score and we are toast.

If we defend like SA we are up by 10.
Barnes would’ve pinged them off the park with some of their questionable breakdown tactics
