The only part of their game that's been shaky in the tournament.

 

Wayne Barnes playing a blinder for them. How far forward does a forward pass have to be before it's called a forward pass?

About the same distance the Irish defence is allowed to encroach before being penalised. Barnes is as myopic as any referee in world rugby. He's also being helped by a TV official who most likely is wearing Irish too.

Ireland pinged continually, including head shot and no cards.

New Zealand one soft deflection and yellow card.

NZ given away two incredibly soft tries. But that stupid penalty at 13-0 was a big moment 

Irish guy Infront of kicker though and it should have been called back for penalty to New Zealand though.

No chance Barnes doing that though, he's too busy chatting to Johnny

2 New Zealander score against New Zealand. Ireland are now brilliant at rugby!! Well theyve “signed” well

 

It’s not even blood in rugby just residency.  Same applies to Scotland and England. Rugby rules re a bit of a joke

To be fair, new Zealand do it, Wales do it and so do Japan and Italy. 

Probably South Africa only ones who don't. Maybe France as well but they did have some South Africans before.

Every team has players in front of the kicker, I don’t lose sleep over that. The yellow card was a joke though, why is that worse than deliberately going offside three times when a team are on your line?

When does telling a player what not to do not become coaching?

Instead of telling them to back off, penalise them. Porter then complains to ref who just lets him off with dissent

Bundee Aki, Samoan parents, born and brought up in NZ, came to Ireland in 2014 as a professional player with Connaught. Drunk a pint of Guinness in 3 successive years and became eligible to play for Ireland in October 2017.

Porter then came in from side and picked up ball which is exactly what ref penalised New Zealand for. What's happening

Can never write them off, they always have it in them to turn it on and beat any team in the world. They just haven't been as consistent the last couple of years as they have been previously.
