Ireland vs New Zealand, 3rd Test: Teams & Build Up

by RugbyFan182 Wed 20 Jun 2012, 12:57 pm

First topic message reminder :

Predict the score of the game. We all know how close the Irish came last week, can they deliver a result to stamp themselves into the history books. Could New Zealand kick it up a gear and get there hat trick. Discuss.

Heart broken already

Anyone think Mr Kidney will be picking up his P45 after this?

by offload Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:00 am

The Irish midfield is awful. Really awful.

by Taylorman Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:00 am

Who's Dan Carter anyway... Crudens into everything. The Chiefs combo's are telling.

by **rodders** Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:00 am

Well done ABs.

Good man Deccie. This is what happens when you pick a guy who was on holiday and only had 2 days preperation.

by marty2086 Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:00 am

Wallace just isnt up to match sharpness and after the intensity of the first 2 tests its impossible to get up to it

by **Notch** Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:00 am

O'Driscoll has been a real source of turnovers in this game, forcing it, he's been very poor and we can't afford it. Same thing there again but from Wallace this time.

We are going to get obliterated.

Unlucky kick from Palestine Dagg.

He should pick it up now. Hes done enough damage.

by Cari Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:01 am

All we can hope for now is that this doesn't turn out to be a cricket score!

by Guest Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:01 am

OK, Ireland are poor, but could anyone live with the AB's in this mood?

by Thomond Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:01 am

IRFU won't fire him until his contract runs out. This is a joke. Absolte shoite from the players. Poor tactics' missed tackles, knock ons, just muck.

by clivemcl Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:01 am

Oh dear lord

by Cari Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:01 am

That was a knock on!

Sure any eejit would know that marty....any eejit except Kidney unfortunately.

by Taylorman Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:02 am

Crudens off now... Barretts pretty good too...

Probably not, I think the ABs are making up for their performance last week. They probably got a lot of criticism back home from it.

by clivemcl Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:03 am

Aaarrrrrgggghhhhh!!!

by Cari Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:03 am

Oh Chilli! picard

by eirebilly Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:03 am

Blydi ref Killing this game, if it wasnt for him Ireland would be winning Wink

by **rodders** Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:03 am

Christ this is awful. The basics are all wrong this week. Far to many errors.

by Thomond Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:03 am

One time we start to make some progress and moves and we feic it up!

I think Ireland have been so poor we're making the ABs look extremely good.

S'pose thats how Ireland got up for last week.....

by **Notch** Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:04 am

Every time we get possession in the backs it's a turnover.

by **rodders** Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:05 am

Thats more like it!

by clivemcl Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:05 am

Good scrum, that's something...

by Thomond Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:05 am

Well the scrum has been a positive of the tour.

by offload Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:05 am

Well at least Ireland have a scrum.

PADDY WALLACE TURNOVER MACHINE

by Cari Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:06 am

Offload - every cloud! Very Happy

What a difference a week makes in rugby...

by Pete C (Kiwireddevil) Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:06 am

The ball must be getting greasy, both sides struggling to hang on at the moment.

by Cari Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:06 am

Kiwi - left a message for the admins in the pub, mate thumbsup

by Guest Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:07 am

All is not lost yet, remember a couple of years back when you played with 13/14 men for most of the game and still scored 2 or 3 tries?

by clivemcl Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:07 am

Better!!

by Cari Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:07 am

COME ON IRELAND!!!!!!!!!!!!! Don't feck it up!

by Guest Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:08 am

C'mon..... make this pressure count.. c'mon

by **rodders** Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:08 am

God help us this would make a grown man cry.

by clivemcl Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:08 am

Odriscoll is sh1t today

by wolfball Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:09 am

Worst 32 mins of BODs career, so disappointing

by Thomond Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:09 am

I think we actually showed some back play in the build up to that penalty Erm

We lost by 40 feicing points that day!

by **rodders** Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:09 am

Murray has taken the wrong option umteen times. Hes obsessed with going down the blindside when theres no room.

by clivemcl Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:10 am

Trimble on, earls to 13? I'll eat my hat.

by Cari Sat 23 Jun 2012, 9:10 am
