'How disappointed? Very' - Hansen's blunt assessment on the All Blacks' persisting problem

I wonder what the French have lined up. Something about the ABs mothers. That’ll get them really riled up for sure.

The B team will play England. 👀💩

I often hear talk about NZ players being poisoned or similar nonsense during the 1995 final. NZ boast that they are 'superstars' and 'humble heroes' on their own website. You gave England the same treatment in 2002-2003, calling them arrogant just because they beat you. They told the rest of us then what you were like, we should have listened. I would give as much credence to a NZ supporter disliking us, as I would to Krusty the clown saying the same thing. Let's just say your judgement may not be the best.

Regarding 2016, as the referee had basically let NZ away with cheating their way to victory via filthy dangerous play and fouling he was hardly going to pull Sexton up when clearly trying to stop a grounding. NZ always leave the boot or arm in to hurt a try scorer but that seems to be invisible to you entitles lot.

BTW NZ have literally being whinging and crying about Ireland since Soldier field. You are just very bad losers. We will be delighted to be shot of you on Friday. I hope we do so with a win, so that you rethink your philosophy of mocking opponents and spectators you've just beaten.

After the match last Saturday the internet was full of Kiwi supporters basically abusing English folk. Where is your national honour? Where is your national integrity?

The Autumn internationals (or 'year-end' tours) have never been about winning at all costs rather more about putting fringe players and new game plans to the test. There's plenty for Borthwick to work on but with a plethora of top rated players now available to England the 6N is the immediate target.

1. Ioane's behaviour to the Irish crowd is also misconduct under the same rule that Sexton got sanctioned.

2. An Irish player guilty of historical misconduct is not mitigation for NZ abusing Irish supporters, captain, vice captain. Should Irish players start slapping NZ players around because two of them are associated with Domestic Violence?

3 Humble teams don't mock beaten opponents. Arrogant teams do.

4 No apology or contrition for any of this by NZ.

One thing, why are we policing the chasing lanes? Why encourage high ball kicking? Sometimes a chasing player may do something brilliant but it's mostly an easy way to move the ball and I'd prefer it was discouraged.

Sexton once again the beneficiary of incredible double standards. Some of the rules simply didn't apply to him. The referee even watched that replay about 5 times in slow motion to see if he grounded the ball. If an NZ player had made that tackle it would have been a yellow card.

Ireland led by Sexton were the biggest bunch of whingers to ever play the game. NZ's dislike of Ireland was not caused by losing to them, it was caused by the Irish players, commentators and media being such giant crybabies.

I genuinely think Ireland are the best team in the world, and I think they will beat the ABs on Friday, but they are by some distance the team I like the least, and I know many people, not just from NZ, who feel the same.
