No Procter again. Cam should have started. Love should have been on the bench.

I'm not convinced Roigard is 100% match fit - took a while to get up to full speed when he came on against England Think they are being very careful with him.

I'm a gazillion times more comfortable with Perofeta covering ten. Love hasn't played there in years has he? And he was pretty poor.

@KiwiMurph LOL , yeah am sure the allblacks are pretrified this week. Kearney is the same eijit who said before the quarter final last year not one single allblacks player was better than any Irish player
Why would the All Blacks be scared of a team that's never made it further than a WC quarter-final? Kearny is a moron.
I really hope the ABs pull out their performance of the year and put these guys in their place. The Irish fans on social media are even worse than the English, they believe their own hype and are still dining out on that test series win in New Zealand which now feels like a decade ago.
They have a selective morality too.....
No mention of breaking Retallicks eye socket, Aki concussing Tungafasi with ahead high dangerous cleanout or Sean O Brien sparking Naholo out in the Lions tour with his Matfield esque padded forearm.
And they are just off the top of my head.They are a whinging bunch of Karmeichel Hunts.
They should tarmac the kip to make a car park for England.
Fuck me the whinging here is next level. Some of you are worse than the SA fans. Did an Irishman fuck your wife/husband?
And fucking moaned about it the whole time.

The Irish bench is weak. Many of those players are not that good or are way past their prime. Starting XV is decent. No Furlong and no Sheehan weakens their front row.
@Billy-Tell 100% correct.

The SOB incident ought to have been straight red.

Man, what did EDG do, or is he injured this time?
Edit: nope! "Unavailable due to injury: Codie Taylor (concussion), Beauden Barrett (concussion), Ethan Blackadder (calf), Luke Jacobson (fractured thumb) and Dalton Papali'i (upper hamstring) "

Odd that the three crocked loosies referred to despite not being in Dublin?

Quite rightly.

They should have sent him home, unless he is there for live scrummaging practice only.

Who will lead the haka ? Reiko should it just to send the crowd into a frenzy
I'd love this.
Would be classic if the Irish crowd booed the Haka considering their self-righteous stance on booing kicks.

The AB's are in town with a lot of matches under their belt and improving every game. Ireland haven't played together since July, bench is weak and Furlong is a big loss. On the other hand, Ireland haven't lost at the Aviva since Feb '21 in a two point defeat to France.
Without Schmidt's influence, who was a big factor in the quarter final win, I feel this is a weaker side. Ireland are generally more cohesive. AB's have the better individual players and without doubt this is the game they will have targeted most in the november series. Lots of contradictions but it makes up for one very interesting game. Hopefully more entertaining than last week's which was pretty dire.
Edit: I also have tickets for this game so will be the first time ever seeing the haka in person and cannot bloody wait!

@Frye They will drown it out with The Fields of Athenry, no booing.
