Ireland (13) 18 / All Blacks (19) 38 (Final Score)
Ireland hosted the All Blacks at Landsdowne Road, Dublin at 19:30 SA Time. This is the match thread for discussion of the game. The match was broadcast live on SuperSport 1 & CSN on TV in SA.
The Irish came with a dogged and determined approach and initially traded penalties with the All Blacks, but the black machine changed a couple of gears late in the first half, scored a try and in the first part of the second half really punished the Irish.
Ireland was not done yet and threw everything at the All Blacks.
Final score was All Blacks 38 / 18, with Dan Carter only missing the last conversion when time was already up.

Go All Blacks
Bietjie ordentlike rugby kyk.
Dink die S15 afrigters is ook goed kwaad. As die bokke terug is, moet hulle weer sukkel om al daardie twak wat die bokafrigters hul gevoer het (drugs ook) uit hulle sisteme te kry vir volgende jaar.
As Snorre vir Lambie wou speel, laat hy dan begin het, en bring MS op indien nodig aan die einde. Kan die klomp nie bietjie dink nie ?
@ bdb:
Ja, ek oorweeg dit ernstig om die Bokke se games te biokot – net soos ons coaches afrigting boikot!
OK, I went and did a bit of woodwork so I could moer something… hehehe
4: ja, tot ons weer goeie afrigters kry.
Game ON!
All Blacks already spreading the ball and running riot
AB’s het in daardie een beweging meer die bal gehou as ons in die hele Skotland wedstryd.
