Id never say die or give up. Nothing has went for us I take hope from “the miracle of Istanbul” A lot of similarities here , we 3 down and being outclassed. Need a try straight after break

The All Blacks lead 22-0 at half time. Sadly I don`t think there is any way back for Ireland but hopefully they will at least put a few scores on the board after the break. The last thing they want to end the Schmidt era is a 50 or more points defeat. The loss to Japan is really proving costly now although I suppose the Springboks could have punished them as much.

Extremely unlikely to happen but if Ireland were to come back from this scoreline it would on a far higher scale than what happened in Istanbul. 1 small straw for Ireland to grasp is that in the 1999 WC semi final NZ were leading France 24-10 at half time and the match seemed to be as good as over yet the French totally turned things around in the second half to win 43-31. Could lightning strike twice?

Yes , 29 - 0 now. To get a score would be nice

Delighted we got a try. Glad Henshaw got opportunity to redeem himself after mistake

And just as quickly the All Blacks get another try. I suppose one consolation is that they have not been whitewashed.

Of course the only bit of the game I miss is Ireland scoring the try and converting then as soon as I get back into the house the All Blacks score again! Maybe I'm a jinx.

Maybe not, we've been awarded a penalty try !

A penalty try for Ireland, Putting a little more respectability on the scoreboard.
