Ireland having scored the only try thus far. abs relying on penalties.
Lets hope Ireland prick a few ab bubbles. Can they keep it up.

Yes not a bad 1st half from the Minnows!! need to keep the pressure on in the 2nd half but NZ will be sure to come back and Ireland will have to watch their discipline.
Lady MO(NH) discipline is vital - 9 points given away already.
but abs are really not much to worry about - they look a bit old and tired. But always remember they have old ali on the bench. Bwahahahahahahahahahha
Go ireland show the world chumps who they really are.
Here in Afghan we have predicted that by year end the Springbok rugby side will dominate the top position on the world log.
...so far so good

Good prediction daffi lets hope it is not a year premature.
So now abs lead by paltry 16-13 and all await the appearance of ali
Good test match, well played Ireland and congrats to NZ. Well now lads, I will take no excuses from you when you meet up with NZ as quite a few of you have said Ireland are only MINNOWS!!!!
keep dreaming ladies!
Kiwi's looked unbeatable last week and quite the opposite this week. Great guts from Ireland
Why was I not impressed with the All Black performance? I watched the game and found that the All Blacks really are to blame for their questionable performance. The game was actually frustrating to watch - since there were far too many errors and pernalties. Persoianlly I think that the elderly was partly to blame for the reather ordinary performance. They did win easily last week and the Irish up their game a lot - but they are not the top Six Nations team - so I do believe against stronger opposition they would suffer.
Mccaw's star is on the wane! Maybe Heineken Meyer is right about the role of the fetcher being absolete with this years rules.
Mccaw's was giving away penalties all over the show for the Crusaders when he returned this year from Injury.
The All Blacks are the best- but if they do not get fast ruck ball they can be ordinary- and if likewise if they cant slow down the opposition rucks- they cant make other teams look so ordinary.
Remember o'Brein (a New Zander) was the ref rep at the IRB so the rules were set to allow for guys like "Offside McCaw" to get away with just about everything.
This time O'Brein is out and the IRB changed the rules and guess what....McCaw is receiving what he should have had for years PENAL-TIES.
What goes around comes around.....eventually!
Carter is a match winner with his kicking....he has saved the ALL Blacks for defeat many times.
Just wish we had someone like that in the green and gold.......
