Forgive the slip of my finger.
I saw NZ beat Ireland as a seven year old in 1963 and its been a long time coming. What a night for all Irish rugby followers.
Having a drop of something just now.

Was there in 2013 and nearly cried at the end... Watched on TV tonight and nearly cried at the end... Thankfully for a whole different reason this time. Incredible.

I'll be there in two weeks too. A repeat of tonight would send me over the edge. I'd need to take a week off work as I made my way around every pub in Dublin to get absolutely off my titties.

You couldn't annoy me tonight.

Still happy Crouchie?
In fairness it was a great game, a fabulous performance and I expected the worst when it got back to 33-29, no faith whatsoever, I'd seen it all before. The final try was just utterly superb, great work from Zebo, fantastic pressure from god knows how many and the composure to pull of a great move from the scrum to win it.
Only the fifth time in history NZ have conceded 40 points.

Priceless.
NEVER MOVE ON. Years on, I cannot ever watch Ireland with anything but indifference, I continue to wish for the imminent death of Donal Spring, the FIRFUC's executioner of Wee Paddy & Wee Stu, and I hate the FIRFUCs with undiminished passion.

They are nobodies. Tonight showed us what half decent players can do. Players who show belief in the jersey, who are proud to wear the jersey. Chancers need not apply.

In the crowd tonight. Now THERE is a man who gave it everything. A proper warrior.
This man, my word what Ulster could do with a player half his stature.

Jordi in the changing room celebrating with the boys, hopefully his injury not too bad.

Awesome performance from Ireland. NZ were rocked by our aggression, our skill and our absolute refuse to lose mentality. A special night for any Ireland rugby supporter.
Not too interested in singling out anybody. Every player involved and everyone in the coaching team can take lots of bows.
It is a man's own mind, not his enemy or foe, that lures him to evil ways.

Full game is free to view on sky channel 423.

Greetings from Chicago boys! Just about to tuck into a deep dish pizza as sustenance for the night ahead. Truly, truly epic. I had visions of 2013 when the ABs came back to within 4 because that is what happens, Ireland feck up at the end.
I shed a tear when Rory was interviewed on the big screen after the game. My mum taught him at primary school but when Ireland was playing she could never watch when he was throwing in at lineouts in case he messed up!
