Ireland V All Blacks On Beeb2 Now

[ChillDoubt]

Anyone watching? Ireland are playing with an intensity I've rarely seen, even from the AB's themselves.
12 minutes gone and they are 14-0 up.
Yes, the AB's will come back at some point but Ireland have them rattled, we are in for a humdinger!

That's the second time this weekend that New Zealand have won a match by two points with the final kick of the game coming from a try behind.

And he makes it. I am crestfallen for the Irish, that was the greatest display I've ever seen from a Northern Hemisphere team but that's the AB's, they don't stop for 80 minutes.

My pleasure alba, that was a simply awesome, unparallelled performance by Ireland, wish it had been their day.

[jim360]

What about England vs. NZ last year?

[jomifl]

If it is any consolation, at least we now know that the All Blacks are beatable.

jim, don;t think I saw that game :-(
Beeb Scotland dictate what we can and can't see which is a pain in the proverbials.

I'd love to be at an after-rugger dinner :-D

[ChillDoubt]

Wasn't as ferocious as the Irish today jim IMHO, plus Ireland were coming back from an absolute spanking by the AB's at their place recently.

An excellent match, and well refereed, too.

Nice of the pundits to mention Nige the ref today who had an outstanding game, but then he does most weeks.

It suggests the AB are UNbeatable surely ;-) You could bet money that after last week's abject display we would go down to a heroic defeat.

Long live the haka btw. Are opposition teams intimidated by it? I doubt it.
