What a fitting tribute to Axel during the Haka followed by a fantastic team performance.

Well done Ireland! Well worth the wait. :thup:

Fantastic result for Ireland.

Excellent game to watch! Return in two weeks will be tasty...

A superb event from a fitting opening tribute in the face of the haka to a cracking game of rugby. Nice to see a ref pinging the All blacks for offences they have been getting away with for years. No better advert for the game of rugby in the US. Well done Ireland.

Pity about Wales ..,..........

Missed the game, what did they do?

Lined up in a formation that made his number 8.

 

[Lord Tyrion]

Nice touch.

Brilliant from Ireland. Sets up the return a treat. A double would be marvellous but the all blacks will be more than fired up losing that long winning streak. It's going to be brutal out there but compelling viewing
