spiffy,
very true. 40 points. But can they stop complaining about the last game now. They knew NZ would be fired for the Aviva game. And NZ were punished duly for any bad tackles. So can Ireland just say congrats and lets hope we play again soon.
Ireland rugby haven't uttered a single word of complaint.

If you want every single person in ireland to do so then I suggest you go talk to them.

If you want whining to stop on this board I suggest you and your compatriots keep quiet.
I refuse to have a battle of wits with an unarmed person.

NS. Gone but not forgotten.

Ah now, to be fair, Ireland handled the physical version OK in Chicago when they stuck 40 points on the AB's. Good series. Honours even.
Indeed, and the NZ media (and most of the fans I notice) were full of nothing but praise for the Irish. Nice of your lot to return the favour. Oh wait.

I'm sure he's bitched about NZ fairly recently himself.

Isnt there a video of the Irish team manager whinging away about the big nasty boys in black being a bit too rough? The way its going and reading a piece the other day about World Rugby possibly going down the route of tackles only below the waist the bloody game will be ruined soon.

Just rewatched the game. Couple of things. The Irish commentators weren't quite as bad as I remember them being. The other thing, I don't think the Irish have too much to moan about reffing wise.
