It's maybe the tallest achievement in the history of Irish rugby. For the first time since 1994, somebody has defeated New Zealand in a home test series, and boy did Ireland do it in style- Time to break down just how they opened them up, and look into what is wrong with the All Blacks...

Never thought I would live to hear All Black players called 'lazy' or see them indifferent (in parts of the game) to actually scoring points and saving their dignity. Yet, here we are. Wonderful video, as always!
Lazy, and feeling entitled to win simply because it's the auror of the All Blacks.
I was really shocked when I heard it! But he saw it, and I don't disagree.
who did you hear it from? this video is made in someone's attic by a biased arsehole
there are no lazy all blacks. This guy's delight at seeing the ABs beaten is only over shadowed by his clear dislike of the Irish.
Expected tho' as he's clearly a welsh man. And quite predictable.
too many black player in the allblacks,,,make it just another pacific islander team such like fiji samoa
@@hanbing1051 islanders are black? 🤣 AB's was always made out of islander player..the native people in new zealand aren't white lol
I have not waited for a dose of Squidge as much as this one!
I know!! I’ve been waiting since the second match for a video, and now even more since the third!!
Yes, fucking yes. I have been waiting with bated breath for this.
Meeee toooo!
he doesn;t know what he's talking about. He thinks JVDF is South African, his grand parents were Dutch ffs.
@@SMacCuUladh Yeah, that is how Squidge Rolls. He knows exactly how JVDF is
Squidge trolling us Irish over van der flier being South African, (even though he and his parents are Irish and his great grandad was dutch) is hilarious. Fair play.
I was wondering if he was taking the piss or not
@@paulbyrne7675 as pissy as the dog at the 1987 RWC
It's a bizarre feeling being Irish these days. Despite the successes we had with Schmidt, I always felt like they were moments away from disaster. The incredibly specific gameplans he had seemed difficult to execute and all it takes is one or two players not sticking to the plan and it could all crumble down. On the other hand, this team under Farrell look really comfortable. Even if we go 10 points down I have faith that the team have a legitimate chance to retake the lead. Maybe there's a growing impact of a positive mindset from the past 8/9 years too.
Completely agree, thought we were doing well with Schmidt, but Farrell came along and the plays feel much more comfortable and dependable
You want to get to the Final in the WC and then you will be satisfied - nothing less.
@@DT7w8 We know that but you have to remember where we came from. We were usually quite a poor team and would never think we can beat NZ. Now in the last maybe 15 years we are regularly beating NZ, France, England, Australia and South Africa. Our world cups went from just being lucky to be in a QF to finally topping a group and beating France and Australia in a WC... may not seem big to many of you out there in NZ or whatever but to us we have been growing and getting better. We can't just expect to get to a final of a world cup. We have respect for where we are - and maybe one day we can, but I'm still very proud of my team.
I feel like Schmidt set a foundation. But Farrell is going a great job Box building up.
Looks like Farrell is not afraid of risk .. Joe seemed terrified of risk ..
I'm so ready for this.
Oh yes absolutely!
Been waiting all week
I didn't think he'd actually do it tbh
@@brianwahinya1245 given how he doesn’t cover ire vs sco anymore there is always that fear
I got out a cider and ice especially for this one 🤣

To be honest not just the best on RUclips. Just the best all round!
I'm a Kiwi and it's upsetting that you understand our shortcomings far more than our current coach...
It's hilariously bad Bower was that lazy in the opening stanza. Amazing how much we miss when watching live.
@@Dilmahkana and to think he's a Crusader, so naturally an automatic pick.
Yeah ay, Fozzy et al need to go. Bring in Razor
Those props are atrocious! Also need to ditch Coles, gives away a unseen yellow card at 74:13
@@hanoitripper1809 yes, the view in the irish media is that the irish coaching ticket did their analysis and figured out the props couldn't tackle. So they targeted them and went hunting for them in phase play for the whole series. After watching Squidge deconstruct George Bower, that seems about right
Josh Van Der Flier is actually Irish, not South African: his paternal grandparents were Dutch and moved to Ireland, starting a radiator business 👍🏼
I'd assume with knowledge as vast as the squidge, he knows Josh is Irish of Dutch descent and its just funny, like, it's not like we haven't had Saffas in the team a good lot.
It’s a running joke
Who cares he’s a South African to me
Born and raised in Dublin. I R I S H.
This is the best analysis I've seen anywhere..n I mean ANYWHERE.This should be shown to young kids and junior rugby players for further rugby enlightenment.Respect for doing this despite probably being pissed it was Ireland doing the demolishing.Elite analysis.Aso every time I hear square space,I think of Sexton/Sexwilly etc,and vice versa..I feel kinda brainwashed 😂
TV analysis is complete DOGSHIT compared to a squidge video. It's either endless moaning on the channel of the losing side or tired platitudes on the winning side. There was no insight from Sky NZ or UK in the past few days. Granted, squidge has a few days to prepare, but it's not like the tv broadcasters do any better after a few days. Lazy and pandering. Squidge is the man.
Yeah thanks fella you just told everybody how to beat us 🤣☘ great rugby brain alright 👏👏👏👏
I am exactly what youre on about, a young (15 yr old) rugby player wanting to become as good as possible so watching these to learn as much as I can from such an amazing analysis with a bit of humour
@@Aryan-eu2jp and irish people can take a joke .
@@Aryan-eu2jp ply rc3 it will help a lot
All talk about Am, Fickou and Kerevi the whole time, I’m taking Henshaw in my team every day of the week. Most rounded centre in world rugby, incredible defense and given he came through Connacht as a full back his attacking game is really underrated.
He is talented for sure but I won't put him on the same level as Fickou and Am in attack. This two guys create pure magic sometimes, Henshaw not as much (but still top 10 centers in the world for me)
I love the way Henshaw plays, he was my Lions player of the series
@@08padam not as good as fickou in attack but i wouldn’t say there’s much between him and am. and he’s a better defender than fickou.
@@08padam agreed I'd say he has them for athleticism, especially in defense, not many tackle ioane that easily behind the gainline
He is good but was exposed by Am in the Lions series
Half the international coaches half their pens ready to take notes on the irish
thats the thing ireland have so many options that it's impossible to cover all of the shapes with potential hidden runners to burst on a line. we need to prepare for a team that will try delay the ruck time.
Trained by English coaches, as is Leinster
@@kenrehill8775 the same English coaches who couldn’t get England past their own home World Cup pool, I wonder what that says about English players then
@@roboconnor8079 mike ford was the problem, but the pkayers attitude didn’t help.
Either way, RWC 2023, ireland out at the quarters. It’s a tradition
@@kenrehill8775 Hasn't Farrell mentioned that he doesn't know why his ancestors ever left Ireland... Maybe it had something to do with the English
Squidge I mean this wholeheartedly, I've had a remarkably shit few days, I thought my mood was improving but again today left me in a hole of despair. I don't exaggerated when I say I opened RUclips and saw this video and it was the first genuine smile I cracked in days. Thank you for that.
Hang in there , bro.
Hope you're alright buddy! I'm glad he can put a smile on your face.
Stay strong 💪
Hey. How are you today ?
Hey. How are you today ?
Thanks Squidge! Great Work! I always enjoy the Irish rugby analysis/vids and laugh that you are still doing the Van der Flier SA jokes 😆.From an Irishman.
Please explain the joke for me :D
@@emileliebenberg106 Van def Flier is Irish born but his grandparents are Dutch, hence the very Bokke sounding name. Squidge may have made the mistake once but has doubled down on it since.
@@andrewryan2280 gotta love squidge man
Hahah he definitely triggered me regarding this. Damn you Squidge! Even the Joburg comment had me questioning what I know.
Thanks for confirming that this was indeed a gag, surely the squidger must know about VdF’s origins! Phew
As New Zealander you have no idea how nice it is too see unbiased analysis on the ABs shortcomings and also appreciation for just how good this Irish team is!
Earnt another sub bro! I'll be watching regularly now mate, tired of the propaganda we get fed from our media. Keep it up brother!
Somebody needs to send this to Ian Foster. JK needs to watch it as well to get a better understanding of rugby tactics
@@Brucemcleod2345 straight up bro. This fulla knows his sh*t
To be fair, your media (and your fans) are used to swatting aside teams like it's some kind of joke.
Seeing an AB side that appears to be made up from normal human beings must be quite a shock.
@@jaymeister4850 It’s true. We are not used to being beaten. It actually might make rugby more popular as the teams become more even.
@@Brucemcleod2345 hardly Rugby is Tennis played on a bigger court , Boring unentertaining , visually disappointing , bigger crowds at strip club ,
Brilliant analysis. Bringing top-level tactical insight to the masses. Love your work Squidge!
Squidge: "Every other team in the top 10..."
*shows Italy*
Coming from an Italian. I like this team of ours but damn the defeat against Georgia felt terrible. Georgia played very well, but I felt like I was watching the Italy side from years ago...
Yes, and this guys seems to always forget Argentina in his analysis… we are getting bullied here
Well Georgia finally beat a six nations team and tbh I'm worried that win Italy got was just a freak one off and they will soon be back on another losing streak
Smart and funny in equal measure as usual, Squidge. I want you to speak at Jonny Sexton's testimonial dinner . . . in 2028 :-)
Somewhere Sexton is reading this and fuming that someone thinks he will be retired so soon. It's that rage that fuels him to continue playing 😂😂
I would pay good money to see him introduce Johnny as "RWC winning Irish captain Junglebugger Sexypants"
BIG fan of the Metal Gear Solid sound bite 😂😂
Also the best thing O’Mahony did all tour was stay in play in the build up to that Porter try. Unreal commitment.
@James Daly he played with such raw emotion, but showcased some fantastic skill as well. The emotional leader in that dressing room.
Great analysis Squidgy. Your running joke about JVDF has really gathered steam. You are one hell of a wind up merchant..Respect lol
What's the joke? Saying he's south African when he's actually Dutch?
Do I really have to explain it to you?
@@ItsmeeSaoirse if it's not what I said then yes?

@@eireann2894 pretentious
Glorious work sir. I have watched every video on RUclips related to this glorious series and yours is, as usual, one of the best.
Excellent analysis of the series as always; the way you pick apart Ireland’s phenomenal attack plan makes so much sense, and your ability to isolate those small moments (like Beirne breaking those mauls) really takes it to the next level.
One thing that I appreciated here was your segment on Beauden Barrett; I think the guy gets way too much heat for not being a “good kicker” and not being creative enough with his distribution. I thought he did the best he could with his options and was one of the best defensively for the ABs as well, honestly I didn’t see much improvement when Mo’unga came on, and Barrett’s running game and defence outweighs Mo’unga’s stepping (useless against an organised defence), distribution (useless without a proper attack), or kicking (Jordie Barrett can kick goals just as well, and as shown here Beauden’s kicking from hand isn’t as bad as it’s made out to be).
Man this is a really insightful analysis - watched every bit of it. Great to see Squidge has slowed down his commentary too - makes it all the more aligned with the visuals. Squidge does the best analysis period - well done man.
Definitely the most in-depth tactical analysis of any sport I've ever seen!
Really enjoyed the analysis, was lucky to have been at the match in Wellington, so was great to see it in detail. The NZ media have been savaging the ABs and after today's non-event Foster press conference, that dog might be getting a call. PS at the stadium afterwards I bumped into Josh van der Flier's parents who had flown all the way over from Cape Town.
Yes I believe they hosted a massive Braai in the carpark serving delicious Biltong along with droewors ,ostrich, beef, kudu, impala and warhog . all the usual stuff you see wandering around the hills of Wicklow...!!!
@@colmoconnor1349 they had very strong SA accents but they mentioned Braai and said it was near the end of the Daaart. And that the warhog was caught on the Wicklow Waai.
I always find it hilarious when fans from other countries automatically assume he’s form the Netherlands
@@LeMerch his grandparents are from the Netherlands but he’s from Wicklow in Ireland…or maybe South Africa.
Netherlands ? I thought being of orange decent they were from Ulster.
As a new zealander i am happy about this, rugby isn’t fun when you just expect your team to not just win but to absolutely smash the opposite team, well done to ireland for making rugby interesting for the all blacks again.
Agree dude. Kiwis are simply used to winning, feeling entitled to win every game. And if it isn't by 30+ points it's deemed a failure. Fans seemed happy with the the first test, suddenly they lose the second test and it's sack the coach, sack management, panic panic panic. Haha. They can't handle losing
@@elscruffomcscruffy8371 what we can't handle is poor attitude and quality. If Ireland had won with the All Blacks playing well then the heat on Foster and co would not be as severe. NZers hate the All Blacks being shit, not losing.
@@elscruffomcscruffy8371 ….Yeah, settle down there tigger, entitlement is purely a projection you’re placing on the AB’s and NZers in general. The top tier 1 teams induce an exhilarating sense of potential foreboding because in NZ, you’re literally marinaded in the idea that no one can predict what 15 men can achieve against 15 on the day. The AB’s success comes from a deserved sense of urgency and fear of defeat, as opposed to some imagined entitlement and arrogance.
The experience the Namibian team had during the 2015 RWC sums the the AB’s up best. They were invited to the AB’s changing rooms for a couple of post match beers and were surprised to discover they were very humble and soft spoken, genuinely interested in the Namibians as fellow players and not at all what you’re trying to portray. Whatever reasons these assertions are made is for yourself to work out but, they don’t match up with genuine Kiwis although we do have an ugly supporters element living in NZ, whose loyalties lie elsewhere, yet like to think they can talk smack on public formats as if they are Kiwis at heart. This group and their divided loyalties are part of the malaise affecting the current AB’s incidentally.
@@elscruffomcscruffy8371 yeah that's the problem with us kiwis we lose and everyone attacks the coach and after the series loss they want to get rid of him, I actually liked we lost maybe now we as fans can sit on the edge watching the all blacks instead of guessing how much we gonna win by
Oh it made interesting getting smashed did it? Is that how you look at it? Fool.
I'm still so pleased with that game. I am still basking in the glory
After watching this I just want to say that I think we have underestimated how good Ireland is and we are overestimating how bad New Zealand is.
All blacks are catching loads of flack and I think it’s probably fair but Ireland must be the best attacking team in world rugby right now by a long shot. It’s almost unbelievable watching them in the attack.
The opprobrium the all blacks have earned, is not for the loss, but the way they played in the first half of the last test. Completely clueless, no plan A, let alone plan b. Feckless
They are definitely the best and other teams defense will have to improve dramatically if they want a chance at beating them
As an AB's fan I was jealous of their defense during the series too, awesome 🙂
'Ireland'
Stop kidding yourself
@@oxensoren ?
After the end of the second Wales SA video I understood you weren't going to cover this so it was a very pleasant surprise to see it.
Great analysis as always and really makes me savour the win even more
Well done Ireland (from a Wallaby supporter). Great to see the team carry on from the Wallabies (1986), Springboks (1998) and France (1994) and defeat the All Blacks on their own soil in a rugby test series. Now you are a part of the elite. Great effort, great spirit, great rugby! As you may know there is a huge amount of Irish heritage people in Australia - and every one of them was behind the Green Machine on Saturday. Well done from all of us. Be proud.
Now, what's that sound? Yes.. it's the kiwis tearing themselves apart looking for excuses. But there arn't any.......
Springboks didn't defeat us in a test series at home in 1998. It was 1937.
Who’s looking for excuses? The feeling on the ground here in NZ is a) how great are Ireland! And b) the decline of AB rugby has been a long time coming with poor performances for multiple seasons. Ireland has only solidified how this coaching team aren’t capable of turning this around.
@@theringmaster886 thats correct 1937
I love it . To be put in with those S.H teams . ☘💯
Did they take it bad ?
Top class analysis that I haven’t heard all week from anyone else. Bravo
Thanks so much for putting these out squidge!
Incredible analysis, editing, and humour in this video Squidge, but it's really no surprise at this stage. You've really set a new standard of what a post game breakdown in Rugby can be, and it's so refreshing.
The level at which you can understand the game, and then break it down to an average fan is second to none. It doesn’t go unnoticed. The amount of knowledge it takes to have this ability is outstanding.
Gone are the days of retired players turned pundits / journalists being the only voice in world rugby, and long may it continue.
Please keep doing what you're doing,
From a very appreciative Irish fan!
when my team did things we almost didn't believe was outstanding.
Looking forward to the video. Looking forward to what Squidge has to say. I noticed that Ireland targeted the NZ props in a couple of their tries. They knew where they'd be in the defensive line (after the scrum) and targeted them with backs running angles with decoys and totally bamboozled them. Well played Ireland.
We have the same minds!!! They definitely targeted the props, with the likes of Ofa last week and Nepo this week! They were so smart. Getting through them with ease
As a Kiwi, the more of these videos I watch the more I realise that the ABs dominance in the last twenty years was because we had the best players, not the best setup. Now that we don't have the best players, it's going to take more than just Scott Robinson to right the ship...
Can't wait for the Barbarians and AB in November.
If you'll pardon a cricket analogy, the All Blacks in the last 20 years were like the Australian cricket team of the early noughties... when you lost Dan Carter, Richie McCaw, Nonu / Smith combo and perhaps Kieron Read, you went the same way as when they lost Warne, Mcgrath, Gilchrist, Hayden and the Waugh brothers. You still have fantastic players but they don't have the same complete dominance than the ones above did.
@@Karma-qt4ji Totally agree, but with the extension to the analogy: Cricket Australia hire the assistant coach from the naughties team, then that coach's assist, and never develop their game so they're out there in 2022 trying to defend totals of 230 in ODIs. I believe it's not just that the players are different, it's that the style hasn't adapted to suit them. Throw in the fact that rugby in NZ is going the way of Football in the US, where it's only played by a small minority of obsessive players whose power and speed perpetuate a cycle of decreased player uptake due to fear of injury, and this is what you get. Rather bleak future I think... (can you tell I'm just a wee bit invested haha)
I still don’t know if the ABs have a coaching problem or a player problem. After all 4 Irish players were born in NZL and weren’t good enough for the ABs. Someone send this video to Ian Foster quickly so he can learn some coaching tips.
id say we have the best players bar rucking ...but we just have a close minded coach
Thank you Squidge! You had some wonderful analysis there as always. I love your humour and I love your insight. Great work!
You might be amused by the Peter O’Mahony montage on the second podcast broadcast after this match.
He is now my favourite Munster player. Everything he did on this tour made me love him more, sledging, tackling, kicking, crying, running around on the night out with the chicken thief. It’s all brilliant. He’s brilliant. I’ve never felt this blissed out after watching a gam e of rugby so sorry for babbling. Wow!
... currently aboard a Furlong-sized hype train
How did Ireland do it? By having the best pack we've probably ever had. Abrasive, athletic and superbly coached - not for a few years but since schoolboy rugby. It's the old mantra - forwards win rugby matches, backs by how much.
I really like that quote mate
ABs probably thought they'd shoo in an easy 3-0 win simply because it's in NZ. Oh wait, sense of entitlement goes out into the Tasman
Farrell is an amazing coach as well I'd reckon
@@elscruffomcscruffy8371 Not really. Many of the fans have seen the writing on the wall for years. Ireland have beaten us plenty in the past six years.
Well, Mr Irishman, sir, congratulations on your team and I hope your celebrations were in keeping with your traditions. I for one hope that there wasn't a sober Irishman in all of the world after that win and it was much deserved.
I do have to ask, though, what is your media doing now? Are they talking up your chances in 2023, are they advising caution, are they critical of the national side still?
I hope the media in the UK is not what we see over on your island.
Pure determination, coordination, strength, speed, talent and training that's how - no brutality just abiding by rules and keeping the pack tight when on the move during attacks. The All Blacks plated a scrappy game but were blocked by Ireland from scoring and achieving the leading score. Ireland have beaten them so many times now you'd think NZ would be used to the idea. Ireland deserved to win and they did they played a beautiful game that was a treat to watch.
SQUIDGE, I have never felt like I needed a video from a content creator as much as I have yours thank you so much for being the comedic talent that you are and taking the time to extend your passion for rugby into youtube videos for us to digest effortlessly in our otherwise stale, zombified mornings. I appreciate you
I can't tell you how happy it made me when the words "in the 1987 rugby world cup" came out of your mouth and we got a cameo from the player of the tournament (also vamos chile)
Timothy knows what’s up
Well done as usual, as always a delight to watch. Just waiting for "How did the Bokke beach the Wales a new one?"
That's a short tale: they muscled it, like SA usually do when they're cautious of the opposition.
@@Formakiwi As in the classics, forwards win the game, backs by how much.
I’d still like to hear an analysis for all of us to learn from, mostly because every team’s got big boys now, and Wales weren’t afraid to stand toe to toe with our lads. A "How did we skin the blubber?" so to speak.
I hope Rassie and the Boks, call you in as a video consultant so that you can help us beat the all blacks… this analysis is world class 🔥
Boks 2nd 15 would beat the ABs at the moment. utterly devoid of innovation since 2015. Think squidge is given foster way too much credit if he thinks he has anything up his sleeve for 2023. We thought Hansen had something and we all know how that turned
Legend, best YT video for weeks.
Lot of work went into this 20m clip, class job Squidgy Mc Bidgey
@Frankie Byrbe Yes it's called an algorithm, happens all accounts.
Glad to have educated you, no need to thank me.
@Frankie Byrbe well you're the one that came out with the stupid comment not having a clue how social media works on the back end
As a diehard All Blacks supporter and a diehard Squidge supporter this was one of the best reviews I have seen. The hardest part for me to watch is the fact he is 100% right the AB's have done nothing in 3 years and I think we are watching the down fall of what was the greatest ever rugby team in the history of the game. AB's for life win or lose.
Nice one Squidge 👍. I'm so giddy for this one. I know you're really busy at the moment, but, any chance we'll get another Chile video in the coming weeks? Surely the test of this window. Rugby at its epicist (that's a word I just made up to describe this match because all the existing ones just didn't cut the salsa). All the best ✌
Yeah, you're busy and yet Cockburn still wills more of your time into his demanding world where drouges sans the power of will, follow Will and his burning bush.
All will doff their caps and follow William-his-Butler-puts- Butter-on-his-MasterCarlowRacist Byrne's-Fine Gael blue knob Léine so Billy Boy can know that he still demands and commands all around him. WB! WB Smells All Snide-Shouty and Greasy+
Or else he just lifts a leg at Jim Larkin's stray cat
He says at the end of the video that Chile vs USA is his next video
Really looking forward to this one.
I was checking your videos constantly for more videos of this last weekend! Oh boi was I happy when I saw the team I support most in the fist one! Love the videos and am looking forward to the next every time! Cheers
As an ABs fan I can only agree with your assessment that their game plans are stale and predictable and their execution lazy. Will their egos allow them to accept that and do something about it before the World Cup? Unlikely.
Ireland winning the next RWC would be fantastic for the game and for Ireland. However I fear they may be only one or two injuries away from an early exit.
Saffa here. I think the big issue with you guys currently is that you've been spoiled with two generations of the greatest ever. You had these f***n incredible players just rolling off some kind of Super Secret Kiwi Assembly line: Carter, McCaw, Nonu, Dagg, Woodcock, Mealamu, Collins, Howlett, Rokocoko, Reid, Marshall, Kelleher, Gear, Mauger etc etc etc
And you still have a hell of a team, but I think they aren't as magical as before. It's like you've played the last twenty years with these superhumans and now forces to go back to mere mortals.
That being said, I'm sure that whatever the hell there is in the water in NZ is going to serve up the next all conquering side.
Nope. Ireland are looking pretty tasty right now, but they still have the small matter of at least _THREE_ World Cup knock-out games if they want that prize. Ireland do not win knock-out games...
"Ireland. However I fear they may be only one or two injuries away from an early exit"
Even without injuries, they'll face NZ or France in the QF, thanks to World Rugby's ludicrous grouping policy. No shock whichever way that game goes.
@Hamish Banish totally agree with you, like in the last world cup, All Blacks vs Springboks, there were 11 scrums, almost all were penalties against the ABs, but none were given except for the last 1 or 2. That's about 9 penalties/free kicks, some will have been a 3 points and some will have given territory. People should try to be subjective when talking about the All Blacks dominance. There were many games they should have lost but won due to the refs; and although the ABs would probably have still been the number 1 team in rugby for that time, they would not have had that kind of dominance and aura of being near impossible to beat.
@@jaymeister4850 Jay rugby has changed dramatically in the NH. The game is taken more seriously. That was the main reason AB's are falling behind. Lets face it rugby is a minority sport and they were the only ones really taking it seriously. I am not talking about players as such but whole nations.
Squidge trying to wind us up again by saying josh vdf is South African 😂😂
Ah yes from the highveld of Wicklow.! 🤣☘🤣💚🤣🇮🇪
And we just went whatever) dog taking the p#ss....
He let us down though..no clip of jumpy sexbanana tying his laces!)
Is this a running joke? I have to assume it is at this stage. He's so consistent with it.
Forced me to look up his ancestry. I guessed Dutch and Wiki agreed - "Van der Flier is of Dutch descent through his paternal grandparents, who moved to Ireland in the 1950s to open a radiator factory.[2] He is commonly referred to amongst Leinster Rugby circles as ‘The Dutch Disciple’.[3]"
@@endaf6429 Yeah it's a running joke here and all over Twitter. Pretty much every rugby account knows he's Irish born with a Dutch surname, they just like winding Irish fans up. SA Rugby Mag journos like to call him 'Bloemfaontaine's finest' and then just wait for the angry reactions. 😂
Credit to Lowe on the perfect pass to Keenan on that try. The 3rd test he played was his best for iteland.
Credit as well to JGP who calmed down from the first test and really controlled himself.
Fair to say this is by far the best ad for Squarespace; seemlessly integrated into the rugby analysis. 👍💪🙌 🏉
Great analysis as usual. Worth the wait. Well done
Josh Van Der Flier was born and raised in Ireland, in case you weren't aware; he is of Dutch descent through his paternal grandparents, who moved to Ireland in the 1950s.
Appearntly calling him south African is a long running joke on this channel
Great video Squidge! Just a heads up, Josh van der Flier is actually part Dutch part Irish (not South African although the name sounds like it!). His paternal grandparents moved to Wicklow from Netherlands in the 50s 🇮🇪🇳🇱
Squidge knows this every video that vdf is in he makes a south african pun its just to wind up us irish fans.
You must be new here?
🤣
Running joke dude
Ps:Funny enough it's not a common surname in SA at all
We do a better quality of fake Welshmen in our international team than Ireland. i.e they are genuinely fake.
Teams that have won a series in New Zealand: South Africa, B&I Lions, Australia, France and Ireland.
I’m a New Zealander and I supported Ireland, was really happy to see this.
I've seen people online actually thinking Josh Van Der Flier is South African, I'm pretty sure it's because of squidge.
In fairness he's the best Namibian to ever play for Ireland.
I think he was born in County Wicklow.
Peak Boer almost more Irish than Mike Catt
lol
Isn't he Canadian via Amsterdam?
Squidge... are you winding us up ?
NZ lost that fear aura they had, which will make almost all opposition play generally much better against them now.
We had never beaten them, up until 2016. Now we've won 5/8 since. So, yes, I agree with you. Fear factor is a big thing in rugby generally, and especially with the ABs.
No international team ever feared the NZ All Blacks. Where did that concept come from? I'd be interested to know which teams or players said this.
I always notice it was other countries talking about the 'aura' not NZ.
Great analysis of the Series. Keep up the awesome work!
I don't really follow league rugby but I love how this is so rich with insight, passion and witty barbs that it makes me buzzing to watch the next internationals. Love the chance to geek out over rugby strategies and tactics. Live commentary often makes it sound so simple.
There’s been many times squidge has made me laugh, but never as heartily as the bit starting at 8:40
I love the amount of people who don't get the joke of j.v.d.f being from s.a. obviously not aware of previous videos...
This is absolutely fantastic. The best - and funniest - of your videos I've seen.
Best analysis of this game I've seen. Cheers lad! Subscribed.
FYI Josh van der Flier is Irish born. He is of Dutch descent through his paternal grand parents, who moved to Ireland in the 1950s.
It's a common joke used by Irish Rugby analysts online, he knows that he's Irish
It's a joke, he does know this
He makes this joke in every video JVDF is in
He knows it's a standing joke that he bangs out and people like you bite every time.
@@glasblaidd New to his vids. 3 other people let me in on the joke before you buddy... Chill
Awesome work again Squidge! Watching the master tacticians Andy Farrell vs Eddie Jones building for the world cup is getting quite interesting!! Farrell's style seems to be play everything and build on it. Where Jones seems to be throw complete different tactics in while hiding others.
Possible Ireland have peaked too early? Although beating AB in series in NZ arguably harder than winning RWC - could probably retire happy with that.
I don't know if ireland are playing everything they have we were famous for strike plays in the joe schmidt where as now we entirely score off our structure and I think there's a reason for that the strike plays etc ate being held back until the rwc
Squidgy has summed up Farrel the best already "it's like the former defense coach has sat down and created the absolute worst attack he would liked to have defended against"
Really enjoyed this video , fantastic job
This is going to make my week i have been waiting so long 👀😬😁
Honestly, I'm here as much for a celebration of this Ireland performance as I am to make sure I'm not going mad and the all blacks really did look aggressively average.
How many new names will Johnny Sexton have by the end of this one?!
Enough for Andrew to put in a new video
I died at the part with the dog 😂😭😂
Good stuff mate.
Dammit, I got excited and was so eager to watch, but it's just the premiere notification. 5 bloody hours to wait. Damn you RUclips.
As an Ireland fan, the thought of joe Schmidt taking the New Zealand job full time scares me
he'll make them more predicable, shhh...
@@johngarveyire like he did Leinster?
The last two years in Ireland were weird, alright, but his open rugby with Leinster was fantastic.
Joe did not believe the Irish skillset was good enough to play this rugby, obviously he was wrong, Andy on the other hand has injected the self belief into everyone on the team that they are indeed good enough and rebuilt a very dejected Ireland into a very polished very easy on the eyes rugby team that have the belief that they are as good as anybody. That there is the real change as was proven in the last test. Ireland of old would have choked. They now have truly got that duck off their backs. They may not win every game, but they will be a force to recon with.
@@readesiun988 Ireland under Schmidt won a grand slam, under Farrell they haven't really even looked like winning the six nations. They've shown promise but until they deliver some silverware they can't be considered superior, regardless of what you think of the styles of rugby
@@benkidd4954 To say Ireland never looked like winning the 6 nations is disingenuous, after Joe left , he left a broken Irish team, Andy has more than turned it around, they lost to France in France by 6 points without Jonny Sexton, they won every other test, also taking the triple crown, no other team in the professional era has taken a series win in New Zealand, that in itself is a magnificent achievement, some bitterness on your behalf will do little to undermine these achievements. And at no point have I said they are superior.
Wow, this analysis is so brutal of Foster's tactics! Bravo!
Hope Foster sees this
What tactics 😂
@@Nicolas-lg6ys my thaughts exactly
This is astonishingly insightful - thanks!
Love the videos man keep it up
I can't wait to hear your opinion on the last match between SA and Wales
I thought this would hurt a lot to watch as an All Black's fan. Instead, it was a mix of catharsis and education as Squidge put analysis to match the intuitive feelings I had watching this game. Feel great for Ireland, feel worried and pessimistic about the ABs over the next 18 months, and feel ever so grateful to have words to match my unstructured feelings for the game of rugby. Love your work Squidge
Van DER flier is Irish. His grandparents moved from the Netherlands to Ireland in the 60s
He knows 😂😂😂😂 he's on the wind up 😂
It's a joke, and afaik it originated from some SA(?) pundit claiming VdF as a poached player and people mocked that
Just brilliant, love the analysis
Incredibly thoughtful vid. Great work.
Cant wait to hear the puns for Gibson-Park and the Brenie boy on this one.
I'm really really glad you finished with Keith Earles. I love rugby, though I haven't been able to play for years, but just watching that moment with Earles brought me back to times when my team did things we almost didn't believe was outstanding.
Keith Earls
Bloody auto correct
Dude... Best plug I've seen yet!
I hate you. By that I mean you're my favourite channel on my RUclips and your ads are so good they make me mad 🤣. Great video once again!!!
I love the way the adds are so seamlessly and humourously blended into the show.
i don't
@@j5fucksducks good for you. Presumably you'd either prefer the standard format of advertising or zero advertising. If it's a preference for zero advertising then I presume that you support content creators in som other way, as otherwise you're just expecting content of this quality, which probably requires a similar number of hours per week as a full time job, for free. To which I would say - are you willing work a full time job for zero pay just to entertain people who feel entitled to free entertainment?
NZ is going through a down period with a paucity of world class players who have been saddled with an average coach.They have just played the best Irish team in history.I wouldn’t overthink this.
the quicker the all blacks get rid of foster the better, start building for world cup 2027
3-4 if that Irish line up are AB rejects
Please, more of those pearls from the vault (dog peeing on the field analogy)! Brilliant!! Gave me such a good laugh mate :)
Your work is very, very good. Thx, it’s appreciated greatly.
Calling it now before this video airs that he points out James Ryan winning an excellent penalty early in the first half by pretending to poach for the ball in the ruck and making the NZ defender tackle over and out of the ruck right in front of Wayne Barnes. Was a brilliant piece of genius from the lock and gave Ireland an easy platform for an attack while NZ had the ball.
ABs got away with doing that in the past. Suddenly they're now penalised for it and look bewildered.
Was so clever to use it against them though! Gives us high hopes again to make it past the RWC QF 😅
Do you know what timeframe in the half? I skimmed thru but missed it
@@elscruffomcscruffy8371except no AB player DID do that. He's talking about James Ryan. But your crazy bias and desperate attempt to imply the ABs are cheats meant you failed to understand basic English (or no doubt the game). Well done you. Maybe open your one eye next time and r.e.a.d. s.l.o.w.l.y.
Yeah that was interesting. Seems to have been a trend in NH for the players doing that George Smith 'matador' move to be penalised (rather than attacking side being penalised for going off feet, as happened here). Ryan clearly judged the ref perfectly there though. Fair play
Totally agree, next world Cup there could be 4 or 5 teams who could win it. Exciting times.
Has to be one of my favourite Squidge videos ever, and I'm only 6 mins in!
Great review Squidge! As good as always
Ireland tactically, are probably the best team on the planet.
Well, they are actually the number 1 team, so I guess they've earnt it
the thing is are they when Sexgland is injured?.the next best guy isn't so flash.But they certainly have more more ambition thatn we have ie South Africa. Ours is kick and charge, followed by kick and hope.
I think we play Ireland year end so all will be revealed
@@markwillies7309 If you look at the stats of say our first game against Wales, you will see that we actually run the ball a lot more and we kick it a lot less than we used to. 480 metres run in that first game, more than double the metres Wales ran, more than both the All Blacks and Ireland in their decider; we kicked it 25 times, Wales kicked 28 times (with less possession), New Zealand and Ireland 28 and 20 respectively in their decider.
It's subtle, but I think Nienaber is tweaking the way we play so I won't be writing us or him off just yet....
@@Karma-qt4ji that soon changed. In the last test SA kicked 26 times to Wales 19. SA had 60% possession but wales beat more defenders, made more line breaks and more off loads.
I don't knock SA for it, every international team does a lot of kicking these days, and club sides. But it isnt as interesting to watch. If I wanted to see skillful kicking of a ball I'd watch football 🙂
@@matthewbazeley2984 With all that said, SA still ran 381 metres to Wales 250, managed to make 3 clean breaks and beat 13 defenders, and while you seem to be focused on the kicking, Wales kicked the same on average given the 42% possession they had.
Furthermore, as all the rugby pundits will tell you, SA orientated back to their old game plan because their ploy in the second game failed and they could not justify it to the public if they lost the series, yet still managed some decent stats with ball in hand. I'll take that any day.
I can honestly say I’ve never enjoyed advertising / sponsorship this much ever before. It’s incredibly brilliant, I absolutely love the way you shoehorn the tenuous analogies in - that you actually get them to make sense is just a bonus. Fair play to Squarespace too for apparently giving you free rein with it. Brilliant. 👊🏼
Easy subscribe mate! Just what I‘ve been looking for. Great analysis for someone with basic rugby knowledge like me. Am always left scratching my head re offside, off feet etc.
I'm only halfway through, and honestly, the level of detail and instructive breakdowns in this video is unsurpassed.
Welcome to Squidge…
@@nathjones77 needs no introduction
The real question is: Is Ian Foster actually a bad coach, or is he doing a four year Warren Gatland style Lions tour, throwing games for an entire world cup cycle, just so he can suprise everyone by showing up in France with actual tactics?
He's so deep into this long-con that he's been throwing games since his days as the Waikato Chiefs headcoach.
Brilliant Squidge! The way you seamlessly insert your "sponsor piece" into the commentary is both entertaining and infuriating at the same time 😆
Super detailed review always a pleasure to watch.
So needed in my life!
Another BRILLANT vid Squidge! There could be a vacancy for u on the ABs coaching staff...
