Made so many mistakes, played nowhere near our best. Occasion got to us and NZ deserved it.

That’s pen try and yellow is massive

[Irishnev]

Sam Cane not playing like a **** Richie McCaw tonight!

[RichC]

Massive score from the ABs

[frank the tank]

****in stressful stuff

[Irishnev]

Beauden Barret has used those little chip through kicks unbelievably well. The ABs are awesome in full flow.

Ireland did really well to pick themselves up and counter after each try.

We are on the ropes Buzzo, they are super aggressive and causing us problems. Set play needs to function and build from there

[Buzzo]

Cracking first half as a neutral.

The Kiwis are a proper tournament side

The knock on?

Yeah, give the pen not the yellow.

Was never a yellow

Savea coming in on the side of the ruck a few mins later was as blatant a yellow as you get though

[Buzzo]

Preposterous call. Hate it. Been complaining about this for the last 15 years.

What a half, like a different game from this afternoon.

Nothing on this (virtual semi-final).

Almost playing a different sport tbh to this afternoon

Ireland haven’t been ahead in a quarter final game since 1995 ffs

[Irishnev]

Our lineout is ****ed and there is zero gap, Barnes needs to stop them stepping across
