Our lineout will be too dodgy imo.  Blacks by 20 I would say.
Conrad Smmith and Muiliaina to score anytime tries @9/4 and 7/4.Devil

NZ -14 big bet for me

Very surprised Best gets another chance after the lineout shambles v SA

NZ ripped the Scots a new one last week where once more we were very poor v Samoa

Could be a cricket score if they get a head of steam up early and the lineout/scrum doesnt function

NZ by 25 for me, gl

Piles Nugent is absolutely painful to listen to.

Who, in the name of Jesus H Christ, is "Dan Corter".

hard to fault anybody for the try but Cian Healys tackle was ineffective at best

Nugent the little girl crying about the thitd Kiwi try and the forward pass. Contrast his hubris over the Heaslip pass to Ferris. He then has the gumption to criticise McCaw - the greatest back row ever. Clown.

Steady on BJG. It was a very respectable effort and they didn`t deserve to lose by 20 but it wasn`t "great"!

Beat out of sight,more than double scores,the All Blacks not even trying ,yet according to these people on tv,the Irish have something to be happy about.Kidney won't have to worry about being sacked if getting hammered out the gate is now deemed success.

Well they won by 10 points last week against Samoa - sh1t performance

They lost by 2 points to South Africa - last 10 mins made it respectable, terrible effort

Lost by 20 today but was their best performance by an absolute street to the best team in the world by a mile in my opinion of course

Didnt deserve to lose by 20 but a few last ditch poor tackles and some scintillating NZ play didnt help - Lineout improved ten fold, scrum was up and down - they were on top at stages and on the back foot at times too but overall an improvement

No long wasteful kicking, massive reduction in launching the ball into the air and just giving away posession - BOD was back near his best, thought Sean Cronin was very good when he came on and Stephen Ferris was immense - David Wallace looks like father time has caught up with him, think he was the poorest player on the field today

Threw the ball around well, bit reduction in the stupid knock ons(but better playing conditions probably helped there too) Solid at the break down with and without the ball

I think there are far far more positives to be taken out of that game than the last 4/5 games put together

NZ had some brilliant pieces of play, slick offloading, great running lines
And how good a player is Dan Carter by the way, just pulls the strings behind the pack, can run, pass, break, kick - NZ will be wrappin him up in cotton wool for the WC

Game of opinions though chaps[;)]

They will be better than Italy and be as good as Scotland and possibly Wales,the other two would beat them out of sight in a competetive game.Lucky for Ireland nobody takes the 6 nations seriously only themselves

Great Points BJG - I liked Kidney summation - a performance but we lost - I predict we will be very competitive in the 6 nations cos that man Kidney will have learnt the lessons of these few games and hopefully that will have us in decent form for the WC.
Cronin made me laugh - and at times reminded me of K Wood - hope he continues to improve

And Dan Carter !  Jesus i'd say it makes the news in NZ if the man sneezes - ironically its the one position for which AB dont have a reliable replacement.

If Ireland had any sense they would kick on for the 6 Nations and put the World Cup out of their heads. They will get opened down under next year.
If they start team building for the 6 nations they may end up 5th best

Agree with lustrumm. Face facts, we'll never win a World Cup.

And Richard Hill is the greatest back row ever.

Agree that Nugent is a one-eyed twit. No place for him on TV.
