Knobhead for the tone of your post. Yeah we tried at the end, but by that point it was over due to some really poor periods in the game. The score at the end flattered us

Hard luck Ireland. There's no doubt about it that Ireland have a serious mental block, when it comes to world cup quarter finals.
I think that's out tenth attempt without success to win a quarter final now!

I thought that was for an admin type post Ireland’s performance director or something . I can’t believe they would make that mistake Erasmus would be toxic for Ireland.
Really enjoyable game for the neutral that. Ireland were unlucky that New Zealand brought a performance out that they haven’t looked like producing in years and Ireland started too slowly.
@blueloon is right about Porter aswell, they should have got him off quicker, sometimes a ref just doesn’t like a certain way of scrummaging- seen it happen with Mako Vunipola a few times over the years and if you can’t show your driving straight you will get pinged all day.
Some fantastic individual performances from both sides there and a really good advert for the game.
If you are an Irish fan I’m sure you will keep hold of Farrell as coach, which is massive for you. Unfortunately the RFU still seem unable to bring themselves to fully embrace the old rugby league brigade, even though Sinfield is now in our set up. How they have managed to never have Shaun Edwards in the set up just shows how the prawn sandwich brigade at twickenham are stuck in the dark ages.

It's not cruel. We weren't good enough. We've had a month of piss and wind and hyperbole and the tournament only started today.
The Cranberries schtick only works with Limerick. A proper lean mean green machine.

If I agreed with you, we’d both be wrong.
Ireland played 20 minutes against 14 men... valid points otherwise..
Typo sorry
GAA a way better game

ChesterBlue is alright, just letting off some frustrated steam within moments of the final whistle. It's perfectly normal to be a bit angry and such, having wanted something so much only to fall at the line. I'd not let any reactionary immediate posts bug you. The Arena is for the animosity and aggro, leave the tory rugby thread be.
Couple of poor management calls I think
Hansen gamble didnt pay-off, he was clearly not fit.
Sexton should've been yanked at about 50, he couldn't run
VDG had a poor game, Conan should've come on esrlier.
Captain hindsight I know

Thank you, I regret my post final whistle posts big time, I was just fuming and gutted about it - we’re all Everton fans here so we all know that feeling surely
