Porter is lucky he's not seen Yellow, he's been terrible in the scrum, you can see his arse coming out sideways every time.

Definitely, 3 or 4 times for exactly the same thing

Superb game, I think the tournament might have peaked with that.

Agreed, especially after that superb bit of defence by New Zealand.

All Blacks just managed the game a bit better, the margins were so fine.

Fair play to New Zealand, they were all over us from the start. But we should have kicked those penalties in the first half. Very questionable decision making from Sexton on those. We just didn't show up, and having an extra man for 20 minutes we really should have scored more.

3-4 things cost them and it was all underpinned by Ireland trying to force things. If they'd played like they did in the last 10 all game they'd have won.

The kick to O'Mahony in the corner at the start of the second half when they were down to 14 was symptomatic of that.

Who and why was Sexton so pissed at the end with? Someone must have said something to him.

This has been a superb watch but I am afraid chasing the game and missing that last pen is too much for the Irish to recover from.

Not looking good, we've been strangely impatient in our passing so far.
Bad luck and it’s really unfair that the Irish only had two Kiwis in the team where as the other side had 15😀
