I really like this Irish team and want them to beat the QF curse. However, just from listening to this podcast alone, I want the All Blacks to win.
Well done for motivating the ABs.
Just know Ireland we waited 24 years to win our 2nd World Cup while ranked no 1/2 team thru out those years…I do like this game and so happy to see another power house on the pond…i back our team and wish both teams all the best…stay strong and enjoy this historic game where legends are born…
Go the ABs!! Do it for the southern hemisphere. From a saffa 🇿🇦
the southern hem lol seriously, your teams play in our URC and want to join the six nations too thats how loyal the SAs are
@@some_might_sayit was Australia and NZ that wanted SA out. But we still support them when it's north vs south.
@@some_might_sayIt was "your" URC. Then we came along and took it away. It's our URC now and always will be.....
Oh i'm nervous for this one. Really, really hope they win. They deserve to get over the quater final hump.
Just believe your team will pull this off otherwise you'll suffer anxiety attacks between now until end of the game. All the best from Johannesburg, SA.
@@victordastile5204The build up is exciting, Our irish lads made history passing pool stages, been irish proud of our mangers, coach & team, all blacks always second fav team mutal respect hugely
SA are phonemal inspiring team
Enjoy yer match
Love & respect
From ireland 🫶🏼🌟🍀
Its nothing to do with quarter final hurdle you have to worry about… its telling our captain hes a shit McCaw and getting the All Black response you deserve that is gonna lose you the game.
No they didn’t. They lost. No cigar.
I remember waiting 24 years to win a RWC again. I thought it would never happen. This could be Ireland’s time to change history and if you guys win I will be sad as a kiwi but happy for the Irish at the same time. May the best team win
It's like everything they said that Ireland was going to do went exactly the opposite on the field. In fact it's like 3 leprechauns putting a curse on their own team. 😂
Rather be an s$*t Richie McCaw than a quarter final choker 😂
The Irish media is something else, thank God the ABs have shut them up. 4 more years!!
ROC determined to push his agenda against Schmidt implying that the NZ discipline issues are his fault when this ABs have been a mess under Foster from the start.
While things didn't end well with Schmidt, there is no doubt that he laid the foundations of this successful Irish team and he deserves nothing but respect from everyone who loves Irish Rugby.
It's no secret that Schmidt didn't like ROC. This style of journalism that is again on display today doesn't make a lot of friends and we should be spared this tacky attempt at retribution from someone better suited writing for the Sun or Daily mail.
Nice pseudo name Franno 👍
Well said, the so called bad points of the Schmidt regime are so over exaggerated at this point. It seems at least some of it is driven by spite. If Schmidt was so hard to work with then why did he last so long and have so much success with Leinster and have such a good rapport with Leinster players. He was also the driving force behind so much good for Ireland during his time. Great rugby man.
N Z win the games 😊that count, you losser's will get what you deserve lol.
It's satisfying coming back to some of these videos after the quarters and semis.
You wrote off the two greatest world cup winning teams of all time..
Big mistake.
Springbok record against France:
Played 44; Won 27; Lost 11; Drawn 6;
Points for: 939, Points against: 662;
Tries scored 105, Tries conceded 59;
Highest score 52-10;
Biggest win 42 points. Win % 61%.
And ?
What's The Spring Bok Record Against The All Blacks, asking for a friend
@@jackkain3970they love to mention the Twickenham game but forget about the 57-0 thumping and losing to a tier 2 team in a world cup 😂
@@2Chancezand that was 15 on 15 😂
Has anyone told the editing crew that you are super stretched lol. I know the camera adds pounds but this is another level
Oh the arrogance. This didn’t age well, did it?! 😂
Arguably the best coverage. Thank you.
😂
By best you mean misguided
I will be back for the return podcast after the game, Goooood it will be tough to listen to these 2 boys and girl if they win, even a loss will be a win in their minds. As a neutral the AB podcasts are neutral too and focusing on their team not thrashing the Irish.
We shall see. 😉
Agreed.. quite nauseating
😂
Good luck to them hope they will win huge challenge ahead
Its funny to watch this in hindsight, you played a poor AB's in NZ and you thought you were the bee's knees. As for an Irishman to say what the AB's should or should not be doing prior to a quarterfinal is a little humourous, a 3 time RWC winner does know what to do.
We will either rise up and claim the mantel of Kings or fall into darkness..... its that simple lol
Hello darkness my old friend… 🎶 New anthem?! 🧟♂️
@@clintonbaptiste. :) maybe :)
the question about the camera guy had absolutely nothing to do with nz management. They, irish media, asked foster earlier about an irish cameraman at the abs training and foster knew absolutely nothing about it. And didnt care. Literally on both sides, nz and now I can see ireland, a media manufactured drama that neither team care about
The humble pie this podcast got 😂😂😂 love it. 4 more years chumps 😂😂😂😂
Now the greatest team Ireland ever had
could not break quarter-final curse again!!!!
Now can reach the next World Cup quarter-final?
Gee if talking about the game had a world cup then a team in the UK would win every time! The is a reason why 8 out of9 WCs are won by SH nations. My prediction is ABs by 10 at least.
This overconfidence by these journos is quite nauseating. All blacks have been in this position for nearly a 100 years. Ireland have only been in good form for 18 months. Calm down guys, focus on the next game. Quarters footy is nothing like the pool games. I’m a massive Ireland fan and love the rugby they’re playing, but shitting on the ABs, who have the capability to give it to Ireland, is just arrogant.
That’s Irish rugby for you.
Should I be nervous about the fact that I’m not nervous? 😅
If we can’t sit back and enjoy this game over a few beers, then what’s the point?
Don’t worry, lads, Andy’s got this. ☘️
I'm less worried about this compared to the Boks game. 😮😊
As a Kiwi I'll be cheering you on in the final (you're gonna breeze past the ABs, and I don't SA to get a fourth one 😂)
@@ss2gora0 I don’t know about that mate. But I appreciate the sentiment and confidence. 👍🏼
@@ss2gora0how’s that breeze bro?😂
@@ss2gora0Cool story bro hahaha
Good luck All Blacks! You can make it back to number one.
Why so much chat about off field antics of one new All Black rather than the upcoming game - speaks volumes about the paranoia that the Irish still have about the Blacks!
Not sure there has ever been a group of pundits and fans so pleased with themselves and their team as this irish group. They can't even look at other teams without complimenting themselves ie the only threat they see in nz setup is joe, the irish part of it.
It's quite amazing.
It's an Irish podcast they deserve to be biased.
@@edwardkaggwa4856 fair! But a saffer podcast would be talking about his their players could improve even though they are already awesome. Kiwi podcasts usually pick jokes in all the kiwi players. These guys are different
I prefer the post match interview 🎉
The one thing I know for sure about any rugby match is that anything can happen. As they say in motor racing, when the flag drops thebulls**t stops.
To be no 1 in the world, not having lost a match after 17 games, is special. The world cup tournament does not reflect this. The knockout stages do not allow dominance or status to be expressed. That's the nature of this tournament. I think the world rugby rankings are a better and more accurate reflection.
No that's a lie. Only the north cares about rankings. Means nothing in the tournament. 4 more years dreamer 😂😂😂😂
Plenty of negative talk about the all blacks - how you feeling now ?
Fun Fact, The Mighty All Blacks 💪 Are The Greatest Rugby Nation To Ever Play Rugby 🏉. Facts

🔮 Correct!

so much for that all 4 northern hemisphere teams will go to the semis 🤣

GREAT JOB ...Sinead Ruaidhri and Cian
as a general note: it's never good to be the favourite in a RWC. Historically, that doesn't play out very well for you. Look at England in 2019. Or NZ in 1999 and 2003.
Enough of this nonsense blah blah.. the boys are ready, we’re ready! Let’s Go ABs!🔥👍🏽

I think we should win it but NZ are so unpredictable now. A bit like Argentina used to be. 😊
Yall have no idea what is coming on the weekend 😂. All NZ injured players are back and fully fit.
And no matter what isnt said you dont disrespect our captain in that way without a big all black response. You brought it on yourselves.
This is a 50 ..50 game lads if the can keep calm i think we see the semis 💯🍀🍀🍀👍
Im here for these irish tears😂😂😂. Need some salt for my food 😂😂😂
Respect all fear none , if we just keep doing what we have been were ok
Stop kidding yourself
Ireland have the better Bench 😂😂😂😂😂 oh my god, this is a shocker guys.
The aspect ratio has been KILLING my eyes with you lot
Forget aspect ratio. You can’t get out of 1/4’s 👋
Irish pundits made look like the fools they are after all week saying ridiculous things like only 2 all blacks would make the Irish team and how they won't be able to handle Irish physicality.
I'm so sorry. But I just can't help but say. As great as Ireland are playing I don't think you've got it in you to take this one. So many teams have been in your position - as Irish mixed ancestry as we are - and failed to get past the Abs at the most crucial times. And sadly this is absolutely one of them. Now, I'm not bias or prejudice towards Irish rugby. I think you're going great and I actually think you deserve to take this one. And I absolutely enjoyed the game against Scotland. It was far more of what we need from Ireland. Especially if you're going to have any show in this quarter-final. But then that was against Scotland. And not the All Blacks. You know. It wasn't New Zealand. And in a quarter-final. But just before this one. And where you won it emphatically. I mean. Look. This one's going to be so tight too isn't it. So. Things to me aren't looking too good at all really. Not if we were more honest with ourselves. Well - not for Ireland anyway - really. But do you want to know why I don't think you will take this one - in amongst the few only of our group that don't think so - at the final whistle of the matchup? Well because I don't think you're ready to. I don't think you've played your best either because you're not ready. And no you're not wrong you're playing far from a best eh. And there's far more development needed in areas of the game for you in order to tackle games like this one. Games the Abs are always up for. And why Abs play the game. No. I think this one for you will be a bridge too far for you. Why. Because its against the Abs. Plus because you must win it. But do you want to know why most of all? Well because I think you're not playing your best yet because you're not ready to. So I'd give it a bit more time. Like after this world cup. Then you'll be ready. Once you've lost this one. Ok? I know you might not enjoy my comments sometimes. But I'm well known for being blatantly honest. And just about all the time. Yea. So. That's what I think. But you'll give it your best. I know that. But I don't think it'll be near enough. And if you can do to New Zealand what you did to Scotland I promise I'll back you to take RWC2023. But I just don't think you've got it in you. Well not yet anyway. But best of Irish luck! And God Bless you!🙂🙏👍✌️👌🙌✊️🙌👌✌️👍🙏

The Ireland all blacks rivalry is like Dublin and Kerry Kerry being the all blacks used to dominate the rivalry and then Ireland which would be Dublin started winning matches
So much for your Irish predictions😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂who are the real champs now post Qtrs...whose No. 1 in the world now!?😮😅😂
Mate, the all blacks have been the favourites during past world cups and lost during the playoffs. Ireland aren’t immune to this pressure.
Watched a few of these .. why is the lady constantly twiddling the knobs on the device on the table 😂 ??
More than 50% of your backline aren’t even Irish. The ABs will win because they’re playing for THEIR country.
All 4 Northern Hemisphere SF? Really 🤣😂🤣😂 Talk about counting imaginary eggs before they hatch.
So even though nz players had great things to say about ire and were respectful to Ireland. You’re still disrespectful towards the way they hold themselves like the way they handle their luggage or input their disciplinary actions to players because no one’s bigger than the game. If you Irish pundits kkeep acting like this you’ll be disappointed when it comes to occasions that matter. Start showing respect to your oppositions and you might not fall flat on your face.
Springboks 29 - 28 France
We just carry-on we have the team to
win World Cup for the 4th time!!!!
Springboks are now No.1 in the world.
Enjoy the cup and number 1 ranking till Saturday 😁
I know this to be true. The abs and their fans , even if they do not admit it, we are looking for revenge. We have the team to do it now. If we lose there are no excuses. None. Which makes it even sweeter because if ireland win, well done, the fairytale continues, more power to you. If the abs win, we take back some of what we have lost and will continue on. Rugby will win on the day.
What a game. Chocked out 🤣🤣🤣🤣 🤷👋
One day at a time sweet Jesus, that's all I'm asking of you. Don't look to far ahead without looking backwards first. AB's remain the most winning team in sporting history for very good reasons. They have had their poor times, but historically will always rise to the top again and again. The Bokkie and Australia have beaten the AB's many times at home and away. They know historically what kind of beast lives in New Zealand.
I am not deleting this pod until Ireland wins. If they don't I will relisten to it.
Eat it.
Ireland will put on a performance for the ages and win well
Ouch. I bet you regret this one! 👋
😂
Lolololololol😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
whats up with the aspect ratios...
Nz win the one's that count, repeating talking yourself up doesn't count I feel so sorry for Ireland when they loss.
Pressure is on NZ due to their history and pedigree. Anything after this is positive for us and kinda "bonus" territory.
Experience is crucial in huge knockout pressure games.
The pressure is all with Ireland . A record of never progressing past the QFs. A win means they equal the test match record held ironically by NZ . Ritchie Mo'unga said in the media conference. When asked about playing the no 1 team in the world he said we dont have to be the best team in the world ,we just have to be the best team on Saturday night.Thats knockout rugby. What ever happened in the past is meaningless. Who ever turns up wins the night.
@@MrAhuapaiwell said 👌😜
Agree with you that "...anything after this..." would be a positive but I'm assuming you mean anything after a victory over NZ would be "bonus territory". That's where your point becomes unstuck...you gotta win the QF first, especially if it's up against the ABs... still gotta be proud of Ireland's efforts in this year's WC. See you in 4 years time in Australia!
The winner of this will likely play in the final.
You all see Ireland has won nothing yet!
again quarter-final curse hit Ireland again!!!!
No World Cup
Good to see how optimistic people are about the All Black's possibly not being good enough to win. Even this current team who for the past 2-3 years have been at times well off their usual clinical best can beat all the current hopefuls. They key to winning against them is more or less in a way of hoping they make mistakes and lots of them. Whether that comes in the form of handling errors due to their high tempo, expansive running game or dear I say it, their I'll discipline that has truly plagued their endeavours in recent years. The trending pattern shows there is a good likelihood we'll see more of it as it is a negative by-product of the way they play due to the forced nature of their style. But... and I say but?? If they reduce what I said above by even 20-30% they will be that much more effective and as we all know, they don't need much in the way of confidence and opportunity to completely take the game away from any team no matter who they are. It's almost like saying... If the All Black's play with 15 men for 80 minutes, it's fair to say their opponent may very well find themselves on the end of a humiliating defeat. If they are carded with multiple yellows however, they become ripe for the picking. Ireland have a great chance but All Black's will need to go to the bin. It's that simple.
They went to the bin and you still fluffed it 😂
Can we expect Porter to play 75+ minutes the next 3 weeks? Are we as confident in Kilcoyne as we were in Conan, Sheehan and O'Brien?
Maybe just this one and a final.
Get over this game first 🍀
Porter was awful. Home time now lads 👏🏻
@@conormadigan7829You can dream! Big boys get beyond the 1/4’s…
The answer to the Q NO
This was Irelands equivalent of NZ’s 2007, but without the forward pass. Well, at least not as blatant. Ireland will do well as a result of this. Just need a new fly half (NZ have a few you could grab). And for O’Mahoney to keep his gob shut.
The dynamic has shifted in 4 years....same result for the Irish however, in exiting at the QF stage. Don't worry, the unity within this current crop of the "worst cohesive" All Blacks in history, is pretty strong. You saw it for yourselves out there today... don't write off the ABs when it gets to the knock-out stages of a tourney! Well done to Ireland regardless...
Uh no. Hero to zero. You all got WAY too carried away.
Sorry for you but this podcast has been aggressively rude and obnoxious about all other teams Ireland played. A nervous team v a confident team ran onto that field and the reason Ireland was nervous was because they were made the gods of rugby by commentators such as this when we all know sport it a game played match by match and experience counts.
Our more years for Ireland to be back in the Springboks and New Zealand "s heads
Yes comedy gold. They lack self awareness looking past the All.Blacks when these guys have never got past the QFs.
again the video editor loses 1/3 screen for the logo. Didnt watch.
As good as Telea is Fainga'nuku may be even more dangerous . The team looks even stronger !
Well, the obvious question is, just how vicious was the All Blacks response?
As for the need for re-set, that's what the Mark Telea situation was, there would have been no time wasted, they just simply went to team protocols.
"They have to deal with someone else being number 1 now..."
Omg, you mate, have no idea, when your side can be number 1 for a decade, then you might be able to talk about number 1 status.
Your the ones talking about , no one else. Both teams start with zero, show us what you’ve got.
Now Why did France lost the 6th Nations?
The Springboks only lost to France by a few points after playing with 14 man for most of the match. 30-26
The Springboks team to win for the 4th World Cup!!!!
Oh dear… this didn’t age well. The problem is that the Irish didn’t respect the ABS. The ABs respected Ireland, They brought an unprecedented level of.discipline and team work.
Questions answered… 4 more years!
good luck ireland cant wait for great contest, from all black
I think they were too calm.
Did Mark refuse to wear a suit as punishment?
Ireland would win 7/10....
The confidence is impressive...reminds me of the all blacks between 1988 and 2007...
Stop… 😂
Gosh you guys highly overestimated Ireland and underestimated NZ big mistake 😂
Poor Sinead. Having to deal with two self righteous, self indulgent, lightweight’s. Look forward to seeing what they have to say if Ireland lose tomorrow.
😂😂 so biased
I can’t wait for the follow up to this… 🧟♂️
Vittorio Storaro wouldn't get a look in with the anamorphic stretch you have going on here.
You’re too intelligent for the comments section. I had to break down your comment into small parts and look up names and words in that one.
Hard lines Ireland. Great game.
😂
All four teams on this side of the draw victims of the World Rugby conspiracy to have a northern hemisphere champion. Hopefully it doesn't backfire for them. Have a feeling that it could.......
Lol the arrogant guy on the left said Ireland have the edge in nearly every area. Well that aged well. I have no problem with them picking Ireland but don't speak absolute nonsense.
The fact is the ABs have far more natural talent than this Irish team, but Ireland are a better drilled team that is very much system driven. Ireland certainly don't have the athletic freaks like Ioane, Jordan, Mounga, Savea etc and it showed on the weekend. Negate their system and you negate Ireland. Congratulations on the victory, ABs.
NZ searching for performance, lol. NZ played with 14 man for 20 min, and the brilliant no.1 Irland team couldnt beat them when it matters. Irland are a small fish in a big pond No rational team would ever write of the AB's. I predict a SH semi-final show, and this will proof again how overated NH rugby is.
Ambush 😂😂
Bloody hell, these guys are so full of crap I'm amazed they have a following. Neither the AB's or the NZ media are trying to create any drama. The journalist are asking question, that's their job. They're inquiring about something they either saw or were told. Some of the questions are silly, but silly questions are coming from journalist from all countries. And to suggest the AB management has something to do with the photographer story...talk about unprofessionalism. Sounds as if these guys and the Irish rugby public are ones who are insecure and paranoid. Desperately trying to convince each other and paint a picture and create a narrative that everything is rock steady within the Irish playing group and that the AB's are somehow desperate and resorting to dirty tactics to upset the Irish.
So what if the AB's are sending out positive messages of them unloading bags, working with the public, etc. Isn't that what all teams are doing on their social media pages? Interacting with the locals and informing their fan base of their daily activities? Or is it only okay when Ireland does self promoting their brand? Laughing and joking around at a press conference could be the Irish players way of trying to keep their nerves and emotions in check. Talk about petty and nitpicking just to push a narrative.
Talea got dropped because he broke team protocol, end of story. Whether anyone likes it or not, or has an opinion on it, is neither here nor there, that's AB's business.
I've watched all the press conferences leading up to this game enjoying the build up and the banter between the two countries and fans. Most of it in good spirits, some nasty comments, but all in all, good fun. But this podcast, is absolute BS! Regarding the AB's press conference, to me it was no different from any other. The AB's seem totally focussed, relaxed and ready to go. It may not come across that way to these "professional analysis" (and I use that term very loosely), but I've seen enough AB's press conferences over my many years of watching rugby to know that they're totally ready for tomorrows game.
Before watching these guys and a few other podcast, I wasn't to fussed if AB's lost to Ireland if that happened to be the case. Now, I'm hoping the AB's win by a lot...and I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case.
Ireland may not be showing signs of nerves, but we'll only know what state of mind they're really at once they step out on the paddock. Whoever controls their emotions better and settles into the game faster, will go along to winning the match. I know the AB's will be up for it.
UP THE MIGHTY ALL BLACKS!!!
If I was Irish, I'd want Irish media to keep quiet this week and only speak after they have send Fozzie and Co packing.
I would doubt the ABs will be watching this program 😢
They're doing their job. Just like every other country. And after all its only their opinions. Doesn't necessarily represent the views of the Irish Team or the Irish Fans.
Well if you’re not Irish, don’t worry your head about it. ☘💚🇮🇪
May want to say the same yo the NZ media.
@@diarmuidkelleher5319Arrogance always bites. Ouch.
Turns out it isn't.
I feel that the all blacks will throw everything at Ireland,I am sure that our lads can deal with it. I hope that the all blacks just play rugby and don't get dirty. I am very confident that Ireland can do it,they have the ability to win this game.
