Yeah nah, Ireland's been hyped up every year for the last decade and still can't get past the quarters. Eden Park curse ain't breaking this weekend either.
Back in my day, the All Blacks didn't need no fancy Nations Championship to get motivated. They just played for the pride of the black jersey. Nowadays it's all about money and corporate sponsors. Disgraceful what the game has become.
Going to be a cracker of a match! Just hoping the weather holds up for the family day out. Bring on Saturday!
Ireland are no joke this year. Their forward pack is massive and if our set piece crumbles again we're in trouble. Razor needs to sort the lineout pronto.
on. Our lineout was shambolic against France. Ireland's maul is gonna eat us alive if we don't fix it.
bit nervous actually, Ireland been playing some class footy. But Eden Park is Eden Park right? Trust the boys.

ffs mate lighten up, we've won 50 years straight at Eden Park for a reason
Anyone else sick of rugby being ruined by these competition formats? Just give us the old June tours back with actual meaning.
nah you're right, but at least we're not soccer with a new trophy every week lol
Rugby's dead anyway, all about the moolah now lol. World Rugby can shove their Nations Championship up their arse.
get stuffed, rugby's still good. just the suits ruining it as per usual
I'll be watching from my armchair with a cuppa. Hope the lads do us proud but I've seen too many false dawns lately. Scott Robertson better have a plan or the knives will be out.
dawns indeed. We've been saying 'next year' since 2019. I want to believe in Razor but talk is cheap on the sidelines.
