How many phases?

 

[SpacedX]

This is exhausting to watch

[Zear0]

Quality match. Was in slow motion at the end they were that exhausted.

Fck

[FoxyPV]

Devastated 

[MPH]

What a great game.

[Vacamion]

 

Fair play NZ. 

 

That is ridiculous.  Tough luck to Ireland, who would beat most teams at this tournament.

 

 

 

[Arriba Los Zorros]

Unbelievable match. Feel for Ireland. Hope the All Blacks go on to win it now

[RowlattsFox]

Incredible effort at the end. New Zealand rugby is phenomenal. 

[Milky]

Two great results today

Matt Dawson’s BBC prediction of all 4 NH teams winning in the mud .

 

You can never write off the All Blacks!

 

Excellent game - tough on Ireland but think NZ deserved to win .

[walkerleeds]

NZ unreal at the breakdown. Fully deserved. 

[Arriba Los Zorros]

Would be silly if England end up being the only NH team to make the semis which is looking quite likely right now.

Sexton looks in disbelief

[Nalis]

Of all the games to have our F game  

[Dr Marco]

Well done paddies!

[Nalis]

Our decision making was the worst of the last 2 years. And at a QF obvs. No complaints, we were shiteeeeeee

[MPH]

You have to give credit to the All blacks. They survived 2 sin bins and held up strong.

[Mike Oxlong]

That was intense 

[Tinman]

Ours to lose then.

What leaves me dumbfounded with tonight’s Ireland,was too many basic phases,from standing positions,no one bursting through with  some skill &

imagination,they had shown over the last few years..Sexton his passing was always at a stand still,very few moves,trying to drive through the line..Nothing really created from play,but their quality held them together,but set pieces too awry.

 

Were Ireland carrying  a couple of hidden heavy injuries…?

 

New Zealand have refound their will to play,and shown that unique skill of collective stubborness when attacking the line in both attack & defence..New Zealand physicality, and aggressiveness got on top of Ireland..More Kiwi Players stood out.

 

Like todays other quarter-final, another great entertaining game…

....yeah, which will likely be at the first 20 minutes of the semi against the French or the Saffers.

 

SH winner then. Or France. How tiresome.

[Nalis]

We were the most naive I've ever seen, we played like we were Scotland playing us
