Ireland did brilliantly against us, especially Peter O'Mahony. What a mad lad.
Also, Rangi's talk of domestic violence is hugely exaggerated. I think he'd have a slightly different take if he played the sport growing up.
I think if you talk with those involved with women's refuge etc - they'd tell you that there's generally a big spike of domestic abuse cases when the All Black lose. Also my lack of interest is two-fold. I wasn't able to play growing up - and then I went to Massey in Palmy. So many rugby boof-heads roaming around. That was the final nail in the coffin in not caring about the sport

Gutted about today’s result. It was only ever going to go that way. Made worse by ireland giving them every opportunity for th all blacks to run riot over us.
Gutted. But I hope they slaughter England in a similar fashion And at least it’ll be a far more watchable game than today

My wife talked me into watching the rugby tonight since the All Blacks are playing and I don't recall ever having watched them. So far, I'm not impressed

Saffas are playing really well, helped by an England side making unusual mistakes for them. A lot of that is down to SA. If England don’t get their shit together soon this game is gone.

New Zealand slips to #4 in the world rankings -- our worst ever -- after losing a test series 2-1 to Ireland. Our first series loss at home since 1994!

Hold me.
My wife told me that I was unpatriotic for saying Ireland would take out the series. It got worse when I told her that I didn't really care one way or the other who won
