Lost by nearly 70 points. Hopefully next year we won't have Laurel and Hardy in charge.

New Zealand put on some fast tries to beat Ireland 11 tries to nil.

Don't think you can blame the coaches for having to bring in a load of new players in key positions, hard to build the foundations for a squad when you do that
