    I’ll begrudgingly say the Kiwi commentators are the best. They always appreciate decent play, no matter the team. They could teach our Aussie guys a thing or two!

If you are looking for two commentators who are similar both fair and unbiased look up Andrew Cotter and Jamie Lyall two really good Scottish rugby commentators who commentate on Six Nations and Premiership Rugby in England.

      For a long time, I had hope that Irish teams played like that, including having support runners. It took along time for those types of plays to filter through. At the same time I was disappointed with New Zealand displiance at times, which costs them. There is still more potential in this All Blacks team.

When we lose against England it ruins my week. When we lose against the All Blacks you can do nothing but respect it and usually applaud a great game of Rugby. 22-3 at half time and most Irish fans like myself were still shitting themselves.

    Fantastic Ireland. Never a more deserved series win. About as dominating as I have ever seen any team vs All Blacks at home. If you can maintain this tremendous momentum through to next years World Cup it’s yours.
    Now the All Blacks have a tough decision to make regarding their coach. If Ian is to be replaced they need to do it now, to give Razor enough time to rebuild before the Cup.
    Paradoxically, there might be an upside to this series defeat. I’ve seen previous World Cups (‘91, ‘03, ‘07) where the All Blacks have thrashed nearly everyone the year before and been unable to maintain that through the Cup. Some underdog status going into next year might just galvanize us. Perhaps this is the defeat we had to have.
    But right now…for the first time in decades, the Northern Hemisphere game has overtaken the South.
    And I think I’m not the only All Blacks fan that would want Ireland to win the World Cup if we don’t. Just don’t give me the nightmare of hearing bloody “Swing Low Sweet Chariot” after the final 😁

      Unfortunately for Ireland, failing to reach a World Cup semi or more is what’s missing from their achievements. They have to break that hoodoo sometime. Whether they are peaking too early, we won’t know until next year. They are at least showing consistency and that they can compete with any team. Not sure whether Sexton will still be around then, and it doesn’t look like you have much to fall back on at fly half. But you’re in a much better place than we in Wales are at the moment.

      Not true. Here in Ireland we are hardly even aware of South Africa's inclusion in the URC one season ago. Here we know the REAL reason for our winning ways and it goes way back when we decided to import New Zealand professionals to run our newly established academies and turn the whole rugby set-up around to reflect the set-up in New Zealand. Since then we have seen steady improvement culminating in the historic records being broken in recent years - long before South Africa decided to compete against us in the URC. Successes like these are years in the making and to claim it's because some club sides from another country played one season against Ireland is laughable.

The All Blacks, France, Springboks and even a resurgent Australia can all win it. It will be the best rugby world cup to date I think. I still have huge respect for the All Blacks as a team, they'll always be the best and the measuring stick in my opinion. Can't wait to see a fantastic world cup in France!

Now they are there Ireland need to play like that consistently week after week, month after month and year after year and create a culture, belief and expectation to have that level of play as "normal". This is what makes greatness and its what Ireland should strive for as they absolutely have the talent, quality, support and desire.

    I’m a loyal AB through thick and thin. But man, that was humbling. Sometimes, we need these to show that ‘Gods’ do bleed. We’ve been at the top of the game for so long we forget the hunger that other teams possess. They came to win, we went to defend. There’s a mindset difference there. Of course, no team, no player ever goes into a match wanting to lose… of course not, but not all teams go in knowing they can win - and Ireland had that in spades. They deserved it. We have the team, we just don’t have that hunger or desire to remain undefeated. Ten years ago, the motivation was to uphold the rate of success and no one, NO ONE wanted to lose that…. Now I feel like we’ve just become a little complacent and have accepted that everyone has gotten better. Here’s to the lads for a transformative humbling and hopefully a motivational camp toward the RWC to prove once again to the world, why we were so revered. Faamalosi, lads, and Kia Kaha!
