What a cracking game! Ireland still winning but by 4 points only with ten minutes to go. ABs on top but Iriah defence looking pretty good. Can't call it at all. In for a great ten mins.

How refreshing it is to see a Ref with bottle to ping the AB's for what they have been doing & getting away with for years.

Been slagged off before for saying that what is needed is a ref with the bottle to apply the laws! Take a bow Raynal.
But it needed an inspired team to do it.

Watched the whole game, great performance by the whole Irish team, in defence and attack. They took every chance they got, clinical.

Also I agree, the best refereeing performance I've seen for some time, can't think of anything he got wrong.

A great result for Irish rugby, and just goes to show the All Blacks are just 23 blokes that can be beaten, although you need to play your best, them to be slightly off form and to have a strong ref...the perfect storm, doesn't happen very often!
