    Omg I thought for 2 seconds we were finally getting a call but ofcourse nah, NZL pen..

    TNT are shamelessly routing for NZL, borderline cheerleading at this point.

    Ireland could march a scrum arrow straight up the pitch and still be penalised

    Not helping that Ireland you can’t string 4 passes together

    And another knock on…really not good enough that we are still doing this 62 mins in.

    We can easily win this if we cut out the handling errors.

    New Zealand haven't looked great defensively and will concede penalties if you put them under a bit of pressure

    This ref is just gifting all of these penalties to NZ and it's costing Ireland big time in this match.

    Ireland needs to do a lot of work now to counteract those penalty for the rest of this match.

    They (the penalties) are coming in thick & fast against them.

    Henderson having negative impact off the bench so far.

    Just to be clear, we're losing because we're crap.

    But the refereeing is peculiarly one-sided.

    Stupid from Henderson. That's always a penalty.

    Been a terrible performance from Ireland. Most beatable NZ team for years as well

    The issue is we are letting the referee ride us, if we were doing our job properly we wouldnt have anything to worry about. This penalty is huge as we now need a try which is a concern considering we cant string 3 passes together without knocking on…

    Suddenly the 10 point prediction doesn't look to wild a prediction as you cant rule out NZ scoring a break away try.

    Some irritating ref decisions but our handling has been absolutely appalling

    Brain dead, 2 infringements there. Was off feet and played the ball, and didn't release after the tackle.

    Ref might be biased but can't blame the fact we're currently handing victory on a plate to NZ on the ref.

    It's a miracle we haven't been given a yellow card given the amount of penalties. Lucky.

    And ofcourse another knock on…some of these are just schoolboy at this rate, NZL probably cant believe their luck.

    Terrible terrible performance, so many just not at the races and then constant penalties and not being able to string 2 passes together is a killer.

    Bad night for Crowley and Henderson.
