@ Bullscot:
If O’Driscol plays the six nations he will break Gregans record for most international appearances.
He can’t retire lol
Gosh Ireland need to score now, they have been under pressure for almost 20 minutes.
Ireland penalty…. good kick to touch
Come on ireland, we need a 3 pointer desperately.
Ireland still looking bloody good, they must not concede a score now
20 Minutes to go in the match… the difference is still 12
TMO to check an All Blacks tackle… to see if he was taken in the air
The Bulls would have been given a yellow there for “taackling the player in the air” absolutely insane call
Ireland penalty against Kieran Read.
Ireland should start believing now, this crowd is awesome.
Can Ireland hold OUT?
All Blacks have just not been able to make it count every time they have been in the Irish 22.
All Blacks 3m out… Try Franks
Now a wave of All Blacks crashing on the Irish line…
And the try is good. Still 15 minutes to go with the conversion to come.
Ireland 22 / 17 All Blacks… only 5 in it now
And the conversion is good and now the gap is only 5. Is that the end of a very brave Irish challenge. History and form says it is.
All to play for in the last 14 minutes
122 @ MacroBull:
🙂
Ireland penalty on their own 22… come on, need a good kick to touch
As we’ve come to expect, All Blacks looking stronger and stronger in the final quarter. It’s just a question of time for them to take the lead.
11 Minutes to go, Ireland lineout
Stupid mistake by Sexton could that cost Ireland the game 🙁
Ireland scrum, in All Black territory
Ireland lineout, deeep inside All Blacks 22…
Come on Ireland!
Ireland have a chance in AB territory with a line out on the 5m line.
Ireland penalty on the All Blacks 5…. go for posts!
And they get the penalty! This could stretch the gap to 8.
Come on Sexton, this one MUST go over!
