    How did our coaches miss Aki?

    He wasn't this good in NZ and left before he could improve.

      That like calling Richie McCaw a Scotsman.

      It wouldn’t surprise me if Alo had never stepped foot on Tongan soil for anything more than a quick visit.

      You are confusing nationality with heritage. Anyway he’s an adopted Irishman now

      Leicester was born there, and moved to NZ as a toddler 😉

        The morning after , It’s funny how one game can completely change perceptions,

        All of a sudden with a fully fit squad and a winnable semi final in front of us , we look very well placed

        Some of us have not had our perceptions changed because we backed the team to do the job.

        Honestly, so many bloody softcocks not giving us a chance against Ireland.

              Hand on the ear after a win with all the noise that's led up to it -- that's a solid 2-3 out of 10 for the 'being a dick-ometer'

                And, after losing in the biggest choke ever in RWC history, the captain in his last game ever should have shown a bit of class. Doesn't have any tho

                  Don’t think Ireland choked. At all. But sexton is insufferable.

                        You might say after the not even playing but abuse the ref on the field and up the tunnel incident - he's a poor man's Sexton.

                              Thought Smith was disappointing

                              We need him to find form again. He almost cost us this match at the end due to an idiotic decision. No good enough

                                @Winger A brave call would be to start Roigard for the Semi and have Smith on the bench.

                                  Agree. If he was younger and a hothead it might be excusable.

                                    Hand on the ear after a win with all the noise that's led up to it -- that's a solid 2-3 out of 10 for the 'being a dick-ometer'

                                    Really? you have goading the losing opposition fans as only a 2-3 on the dickometer?

                                    (assuming he was doing it to the crowd?, not to Sexton)

                                    If anyone other than Sexton had reacted, where would it be on the scale?

                                    I mean, Reiko alway been a bit of a classless dick, so maybe I'm doing a reverse over dick-ometering of him. Nah, that is classless.

                                    If he is telling 'us' to shut up. E.g. The negative NZ fans, the Foster truthers. Then fair enough, although he'd still be wrong.

                                      @Winger A brave call would be to start Roigard for the Semi and have Smith on the bench.

                                      I would at least have him on the bench. He provides an alternative. Christie doesn't.

                                      I hope Smith finds form as Roigard hasn't had enough game time. Litle things like this could cost us the RWC. And while it would be fun to slag off a certain AB coach, I would prefer to win it all.

                                        All of a sudden with a fully fit squad and a winnable semi final in front of us , we look very well placed

                                        Pretty sure that Fozzie has been a realist.

                                        We are greedy little bastards who think we should win every game, but the world has turned and we've got to be pragmatic - the loser now is later to win and all that.

                                        We very clearly didn't prepare as though winning our first pool match was a major priority - a nice to have, but not a priority, because for most of our guys it was their second game in a month.

                                        Seems like we're in a good spot, now. Our undercooked guys have had a good searing in an Irish crucible. I don't think we've got any injury concerns. And we're likely looking at two games against opponents we know well to win the big cup.

                                          You might say after the not even playing but abuse the ref on the field and up the tunnel incident - he's a poor man's Sexton.
