Completely blown away by a clinical AB team.
Ireland didn't help themselves though Aidan. Far too many mistakes against a ruthless team.
Great send off for one of the good guys.....Rory Best
My Irish mate reckoned before this World Cup that Ireland peaked a year too early,might be true because they were definitely out played today.Gonna be interesting next week,England will have a tough match for sure.

Got to agree with you there. The build up was all hot air. JJHCan’t believe expectations were high after the loss to Japan and other very averages performances. They never stood a chance against a superior AB team...pity

My wife follows the Rugby intently and she says exactly the same. I think that hen Joe Schmidt said he was going, it broke a spell, affected the guys self confidence.
Joe Schmidt completely under-estimated the Japs and put out a second string 15 which we all know cost us dear. We would have ,I think, gone further had we beaten the Japs and not come across the ABs so early?
If "ifs and ands were pots and pans...."
Or as my Dad used to say "if your aunt had balls, she would be your uncle"
