TBF they lost the Aura when video refs came in. Still get the benefit from officials but more of an even field than it was.

I hate the cynical second penalty in the red zone, rightly a card

Ref making sure to level things up.

Ireland played (much) better when they played 15 All Blacks.

(PS: slow link, I wasn't complaining about the yellow)

That's the game changer. All Blacks won't lose it from here. Irish should have been 20+ if they took their points.

Kak man. The ref has been very good. Sexton possed away 12 points with shite desicions.

Just started watching after 30 minutes, just in time to see the ref completely bottle another yellow for the AB's for lifting the leg in the advancing maul.

When you play the All Blacks in NZ, you take every fucking point on offer.

Arrogance cost them

Ireland should be out of sight. When against 15 they were totally dominant then just like last week something going wrong every time a try seems certain. Ireland can win this but I get the feeling it will be AB errors that get it over the line. If ABs play decent Ireland will lose. .

Actually, that’s a damn good point but not sure it’s arrogance. It’s like they think they can only win with tries as the ABs will always score against them. More like insecurity.

Ireland over eager and rash decisions, whereas some cool heads would surely have resulted in more points. They should have been well out of sight. Doing their best to make it easy for the All Blacks.

Think it’s just more team’s philosophies these days, and I remain very unconvinced. Should have been 19-0 up or so

He had his second pair of invisible arms in the air at all times so a legitimate charge down.

If he was trying to even things up, Lowe would have been carded for clotheslining Jordie Barrett

The All Blacks should go back to the 70s and learn yo tackle around the ankles. They won't get away with this against the Springboks

Dealing with horrific camping ground WiFi.....what red card protocol is being used in this game?

Lose the player for good.....or lose the player and replace?

Gibson Park been poor to average in both matches methinks.

Irish handling in the first half was pretty poor, cost them a lot of chances.

Ireland playing better with even numbers.

Though the tryline defense by the All Blacks has been very good both matches.
