Andy Farrell is such a class, dignified person. Ireland are lucky to have him.
Isn’t he pure class ❤
Farrell is sexton just a whinging plonker ,so over-rated
He really is....dunno what contract hes on - but they need to tie him down for minimum 4 years so he can see through the next group of players coming through....
I hear Jacque and maybe Rassie are going to Ireland
Hmm , ya play a full strength team against minos , only team to do it . Bad player manager , team can't manage the clock then , smit had his number . Laughing and joking with the subs before the game , that's a proper coach . Rugby league manager.
Oh Ireland, as a kiwi my heart breaks for you. You are a phenomenal team, world number 1 and overflowing with talent and class. Like NZ, a small country dominating world rugby. Your time will come. We are all so proud of you. ❤
Very kind words ❤️
Cheers mate, nothing in it. Nothing at all. We’ve always respected the all blacks, win loose or draw. No shame for us, we gave our all. Go on and win it now 🇮🇪☘️. Fantastic Haka btw, was that a ceremonial spear??
Thank you for the respect was brilliant game ❤
@@niallmartin9063 yes it was a ceremonial spear. You are so right there was nothing in it at all and either side could have won. Ireland will continue to rise and be the team to beat. Wishing Ireland and its lovely people all the very best ❤️
Nah my heart didn't break, the arrogance of the Irish media and players has been so annoying. They let their success go to their heads. I once had a lot of respect for Ireland but that started to diminish as their arrogance grew.
We love you Ireland. 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
I’ve never ever felt bad for knocking another team out of this competition. What a shame we had to meet so early. Take it easy on yourselves. You should be so proud.
From New Zealand.
Good on ya mate
Appreciate it mate, hope ye go on to win it now. Best of luck.
Cheers mate. It was wafer thin. Go on and win it now🇮🇪☘️
What a super comment, good luck to you 👏
Such a scary bunch to contend with Ireland. Such a close battle and I'm already looking forward to the rematch 🤝
Isn't Andy farrell just a class act. Came out to the players after the match smiling, gave them all a hug and thanked that reported for her question. Class act. Hope he stays with us
As an ab fan, you guys are very lucky. He's a great coach and role model. Massive respect.
Hope Andy Farrell comes back to England, class coach
He really is, wish he taught his son some manners and class
@@JustinBieberFanSA agreed
Dont be fooled. At the end of the day he is English - he can never quite empathise with what the Irish lads are going through...
Massive respect to the Irish from the Kiwis - this was a massive battle that will not be forgotten. In the end the ABs took it- but could have gone either way until the full time whistle.
As a Kiwi gotta say this Ireland side is Absolute quality from management through to players,keep your chin up lads
Thank you, gutted as a Irish man, but hats off to the all blacks, hope they will it out fantastic team classy guys, all the best to them😢
Ye were the better team may be quality but made too many mistakes again
Thanks for the kind words, really hope the ABs go all the way, from a very proud Irish fan
To be the best you’ve got to beat the best. We tried to do it and narrowly missed out because NZ to a man gave it 100% and deserved it on the night.
We’ll be back and hopefully we can test ourselves again against NZ.
Best of luck with the rest of the tournament. ☘️
As a kiwi, im bloody proud of the All Blacks for digging deep and coming out with the win!. Ireland..what a class act team..if we lost today..i was rootin for ireland to win the tournament!, youll be back!
As an All Black supporter I would just like to say how much kiwis admire and respect Irish rugby. And Andy Farrell is a class act, very humble and gracious. What an ambassador for Ireland and Irish rugby. I'm just sorry that we had to meet in the quarter finals. An incredibly hard fought match and so close, it could have gone either way.
From a captain in the mighty Wigan league dynasty, to being head coach to a great national test team. What an icon of sport.
As a Bok fan Ireland can feel proud of themselves and Andy. What a coach. Down to earth and professionalism displayed in this post match interview. Ireland have alot going for them going forward and im sure they will just get better in the future. I was actually feeling proud watching that last +- 40 phases. AB defended so well and to stay calm,not giving away any penalties also. But feeling sorry for Ireland. Yet another qf when it really mattered gone and dusted. One cant help but feel sad for them........
What a lovely guy andy is im so proud he is the coach 🇮🇪 i hope he stilll believes because we the fans do💪 there is serious talent coming through 👏💚
Farrell is all class. Broken hearted for the Irish. What a game
Poor wc record
Im absolutely gutted 🇮🇪 we came so so close its heartbreaking but im so proud of the team and andy we'll be back 🍀 congratulations and good luck to NZ 💚
A gracious coach. I'd never listened to him talk in any post match interviews but what class he has.
From a kiwi
Im actually bummed we met yous early. Your team is devastating. I have always been a big fan, it could of went either way. My fav player growing up was Brian O,driscoll. Sorry if spelled wrong. The attack on ireland is something special to watch. We will see you in 4 years. Much love Ireland.
The memories will last a lifetime 😢… mr. Sexton is a gentleman…. Forever remembered
Im tears here cnt watch this my heart is broken u can hear him holding back tears sniffling and its killing me johnny we love u and will miss u in every future match it wont be the same, Andy Farrell is a brilliant coach long many he be a part of this team, he has dignity and is full of pride for his lads thank u Sir
Shocker that this match ended up in a quarterfinal. I saw them going all the way. From a saffer, gotta respect the class and character shown here. I think this will fuel generations of Irish players. Gives them enough to believe and to think big. They've set a new standard for the game. Respect.
maybe....but this was a golden generation...the spine of this team wont be at the next WC....this team had a great blend of experience and youth...now its up to a new generation
This is nonsense!!!this two teams are the best in world should play final,instead are teams there what will never beat ireland on new zealed from 10 matches least one,is not fair at all!!!should play like ice hockey world cup!!!!just two group of 8 teams and first play against 4!!!!
But this always happens to ireland in RWC quarters
so im not surprised
2019 RWC: NZ 46 - IRELAND 14
2015 RWC: ARGENTINA 43 -
IRELND 20
2011 RWC: WALES 22 - IRELAND 10
@@lepzjr8405give it a rest on the quarters, try to think of something original to write.
@@patrickfarrell5092Indeed, this game was on a knife edge, and Ireland came very close to winning it with the held up try. It’s nothing like getting smacked by Argentina or Wales.
Seriously, reading all the comments open your eyes to the pureness within the world. So many great people attached to this game. If you wanted anyone to govern the world and make it a better place you’d want it to be a rugby person. Classy and dignified sport ☘️
Certainly rugby is mostly a classy and dignified sport, meant to be played within the spirit of the game. It is not meant to involve cowardice and/or lack of integrity especially by those chosen to play the game at the highest level and this is where the Irish team, with their cynical cheating involving pod based interference runners, remaining out in front of their backs, interfering and crowding instead of getting back onside for the first try against Scotland, have said, “UP YOURS” to their loyal and trusting fans & the rest of the rugby world, “We will do whatever it takes to win”
Thankfully karma and the All Blacks have teamed up and thrown you out of the World Cup, which is exactly what you deserve, but I feel for the genuine, trusting Irish fans and also for those players within the group who were opposed to the cowardice that you as a team were prepared to carry out in order to win. To ever get to the QFs, I believe you must do some serious soul searching, and throw out and expose those tricheurs that were responsible for this farce.
Very true..
@@martybarry2395 Scotland should have been over the moon they were rubbing shoulders with rugby number one team (Ireland). When Ireland eliminated them last week. Sour grapes will always complain.
Govern the world. What are you on man. Great sport and all but Jesus
Andy Farrell thank you so much for all you and the team have done for Ireland. I am so proud to be Irish. Ireland ❤ 🇨🇮🇨🇮
Your proud to be Irish 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪 omg an embarrassment u are 😂
Commiserations Johnny What a Stella career in rugby, but I must say I am impressed with the humility of Andy Farrell. A true champion coach stands up in its darkest hour and Andy Farrell did just that! God bless you Andy and keep your chin up Johnny!
And yet neither congratulated the all black's in their interviews after the game. No humility fella
@@gorillawarfare451They did in this very video you're commenting on. Are you dense?
@gorillawarfare451 Johnny comgratulated the Allblacks as soon as the match ended and they first gave him the mic
@gorillawarfare451, get your facts straight before you start spouting BS!!
@@gorillawarfare451Farrell said it numerous times lad
Pure devastating loss , saw grown irish men here in NYC crying shoulder to shoulder, we are so proud of our boys ,there special people and there are no words for Johnny , just pure class and we are so grateful for there service to our country!!!
Well said Podge.
Yeah fantastic - yet another moral victory & an early plane trip home. The acceptance of mediocrity is exactly the reason why we haven’t done a thing in a WC.
@@warrenreidy7925 Who's taking "moral victories"? That sounds like a you problem 2bf.
@@damotheman4196 grown men crying shoulder to shoulder - give me a break. So proud of the boys being dumped out as #1 ranked team in quarters yet again.
@@warrenreidy7925 No idea what you're on about. I never said anything about "grown men crying" like i said, no-one mentioned "moral victories" YOU DID. Once again, all a you problem
Two gentleman of the game of rugby. Great sportsmen.
I'm so proud of our nation going out fighting and never gave up! Every single player should be standing tall with pride with that performance. Our day will come.
but again you choked when it really mattered
@@Trajan2401 always one prick.
@@Trajan2401You mean we got beat by a team that were ever so slightly better on the night. There's a big difference between choking against Argentina or Wales than getting beat by the All Blacks in a WC QF.
Phenomenal team that raised the bar of Irish rugby & no doubt will foster a new chapter of young competitive Irish players. Rugby wins.
@@Trajan2401do you really see it as choking though? Lost to the likely winner to be fair. I'm proud. Why do teams that dare to try to be great get such stick when they fall short? Ireland made us proud these recent years. Getting to world number one isn't easy and that's why not many teams achieve it. Winning 17 matches back to back is amazing but New Zealand will always have a great team and will never be an easy night's work for anyone. It's not the end. Ireland's U20'S have been fantastic last two seasons in the six nations and were runner ups in the recent U20'S world cup. The provinces are doing great as well so this is not the end. Yes this is a great team and a quarter finals doesn't do them justice but when Brian O'Driscoll, Peter stringer, Paul O'Connell and Ronan O'Gara quit, it seemed like people thought that would be the end of Ireland but we produced an even better team.
Jeez I'm feeling for Ireland from a springbok over here, well done and thanks for contributing so much to rugby overall...
Irish team showcases a Brillant performance. Every single player should be standing tall with pride with that performance. Respect from Fiji.. Thank You...(Vinaka! ) This was a massive battle that will not be forgotten.
Beautiful Ireland team and Irish people.
So disappointed for the team, us the supporters. Great journey.
Thanks Johnny, Andy n all the team 👏🇨🇮❤️
Proud of Ireland. So gutted. Congratulations to NZ.
Fair play for even doing the press conference. They must have just wanted to go and be with their families. How Andy was so composed, even making a point of interjecting to thank journalists for any compliments, and also refusing to be drawn into ref criticism, instead praising New Zealand. Class act.
Cannot put into words how you boys feel. But. You did us the unconditional dedication. Thank you for everything you do. We are 100& behind you. 💚🇮🇪🏉
Massive thanks to the ireland team and coaching staff for an unbelivable ride these last 2 years. brought us to the big boy table with the best brand of rugby you could ask for and as gutted and depressed as i am right now. im just sad for the team. They deserved at least a semi final. You see in the first 20mins the nerves. Its such a hoodoo that i dont think we may ever get over. This is the best team we could ever hope to assemble and it still wasnt enough. Man its really hard to take. Best of luck to our NZ brothers for the rest of tournement. You guys played like all blacks. Hopefully we can get there someday but right now it feels further away than ever before. Gutted.
Wow what a match. I was up and down and on the edge of my seat. Thank you Ireland Andy, Johnnie, players and supporters you all did so well. So proud of you but prouder for my All Blacks Team for the win, the effort , strength Ian Foster, coaches, players and New Zealand. Good Luck for future games. Love Rugby!
As a Saffa through and through, I just want to express the sincerest respect for two top-class men and leaders in Irish rugby. Your character shines through such a tough defeat.
As a safa all I can say is rim job
Hold your heads high lads 🇮🇪.
We are all deflated and gutted, but immensely proud and grateful for your unrelenting efforts for the green jersey. You made us believe, you pulled the country together and you gave it everything. You may have lost this match but you have undoubtedly inspired our young Irish players and been an inspiration to future generations. We’ll go again
“…. Inspired our young Irish players”? Or inspired foreigners to get residency and come back as a coach and milk you again in years to come
Proud Ireland team. Exceptional rugby. The World Cup is becoming a true and fierce competition across so many nations. Expect Irish rugby to continue to forge ahead. Love it. Johnny represents both Ireland and world rugby at the highest level. Brilliant player and leader.
Andy and the team did us all so proud, amazing
🇮🇪 Well done Ireland, brilliant rugby team and class acts.
Kiwi fan but I feel for the Irish as this is a wonderful team and could easily have seen them winning on another day.
Any nation would be very proud of this team and how they've played over the past 4 years.
Love you Ireland … Johnny I’ll miss you my gosh you are a legend … am sad thinking about you not playing anymore but I thank you for making us all dream thank you from bottom of my heart ⭐️
Great team, great coach. No excuses, the all blacks were the better team tonight and fully deserve the win. They were brilliant. But I really hope that this Irish side dosent get put away as another quarter final exit side. They’re so good, so inspiring and I love them. Jonny is one of the greatest to have ever done it. We’re so proud of you lads
Respect goes to this man Johnny an his team,number one team in the world.
So overrated, biggest whinger in the game
@@jamesquinn7484get a life
Well done Ireland 🇮🇪 the ABs have never been pushed that far before ever, much respect👊✌️
BS bro….ABs have definitely had harder games n come out on top!
Not once in this game was Ireland ever in front.
Great teams win when under pressure…..Ireland we’re under pressure all game n couldn’t make the cut.
@@puppysoda7062 Bro they've never had to defend 38 phases to win a game in the RWC never,no team has ever done 40 phases,everyone is saying it's one of the greatest AB wins ever especially at a world cup
Well played Ireland. Sorry to see you leave the tournament but you can hold head high. Go the ABs!
Never been more proud of the entire team 🇮🇪🍀😭🥺
As a kiwi I’ve never felt so sad for a losing team. Ireland have worked so hard for this. This should have been a final. Hold your heads up Ireland, you should be very proud of your boys. AB’s time to go on and finish the job.
Ye were absolutely class last night and were worthy winners. Broken hearted this morning but hope ye go on to win it from here. Always have massive respect for the kiwi's.
No shame us losing to that level of AB performance. Phenomenal last ditch defending. No complaints. Go win it now🇮🇪☘️
Very emotional Sexton, did well getting through the press conference so sad to see him and his son in tears after the game, just feels a travesty of justice, the draw etc. But every Irish person is immensely proud of this team, the small margins and penalties early on robbed them of a victory.
Well done Johnny for what you have done for Rugby overall. You a great ambassador for Ireland and Rugby
This match was amazing, shame one team had to loose. It was worthy of a final.
As an England supporter I have to say never seen a northern hemisphere side play with a passion like the Irish did last night. I think when you look at the teams they had to play it probably took it out of them. Unfortunately sometimes the final gets played a bit earlier, and that was the case last night. I guess the most frustrating thing Is knowing whichever team won last night would probably advance to the final. On another subject I think world rugby needs to sort out how these world cups draw out. When you have teams like Ireland Scotland and SA in the same group i think it’s unfair and doesn’t allow much room for momentum and it’s always going to come down to a bounce of the ball. It should of been a semi or a final. You look at wales Fiji Australia being in the same group 3 times in a row with wales and Fiji 4 times in a row. Takeaway the top 5 teams playing eachother and rugby can be so predictable. Its a shame but we are not even at the semi final stage yet and without sounding arrogant we already know 1 of the teams that will play in the final.
Well said. I'm an Irish supporter and gutted we are out. The South Africa and NZ game were both like finals. I agree with the draw comment. How on earth did professionals allow that draw? It nearly seems like corruption. Now France or South Africa will be going out at this stage.
Eng are more than welcome to have Wales usual group of never ending opponents of Fiji and Australia.. don't forget what happened to eng when they found themselves in a world cup group involving Fiji Australia and Wales..
Final will be NZ vs SA (obvs).
@@isitwasit8756 and here comes the insignificant sheepshager
So glad rugby still brings us matches like this😊
Felt like a final.
Ireland was exceptional, As A South African in ireland, I'm heart broken by the loss, 2027 will be Ireland's world cup. CONTINUE TO BUILD ITS COMING...
Thank you for your such kind word's 🇮🇪🍀❤️🇮🇪
"Two good teams out there playing some outstanding rugby." Nailed it.
Quality coach Quality player class blokes both of em These Irish were extremely tough to beat and it could very easily have gone the other way. Scary that Andy says they will be better in 4 years
Love and respect from New Zealand lads
The Irish people love ye well done please be proud on what ye achieved ye really are the best team the country has ever seen well done so proud 🇮🇪🇮🇪
Best team ever and still gets out in the quarters eh 😂 better luck next time 😂
This is the best way to lose. Such class from Andy Farrell
What a game of Rugby.. What a shame there had to be a loser. Such respect shown by both teams at the end . Probably the match of the tournament. Ultimately, the game of rugby was the final winner. Congrats to the AB's from a South African supporter.💫
It's just awful disappointing. I thought this time it was goin to be different . Watched it up in Newry . The whole country was behind them. It's hard to take . It was not to be. The country is proud of Andy an Johnny and the boys. That's sport at the highest level.
Coach of the year 100% I'm stoked for the AB's, we had to play at intensity with little to no mistakes for 80 minutes to edge this victory. I feel for ireland, this is heartbreaking. I hope the pools are selected closer to the tournament for next RWC
Two Legends. Hope Andy sticks around.
I have a lot of respect for Ireland 🎉🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦 congratulations to the Kiwis👏👏
I sure hope Ireland 🇮🇪 and their proud and loud fans (🤪) find a way to celebrate the incredible year that they've had! 👏🏾 They've been a cut above the rest for a long while now, and tonight, they played with that same heart! 😊 There's literally nothing to be ashamed of!
...it simply boils down to there can only be one winner and in this case it wasn't to be for Ireland 🤷🏽♀️
Hold your heads high Ireland! Johnny gave his all,as did the rest of the lads! Going to miss the massive Sexton heart in the game!
Thanks for all the memories Johnny, you’ve been a leader and class player that has brought Irish Rugby to the next level - I hope you decide to stay in some form to help our younger players develop on the back of your legacy to greater heights
After the Pumas won, was hoping it would be an irish victory to make my day and I am sure many more argentinians were supporting you. You played a great game.
Id just really like to say Johnny don't be so sad 🍀 u are Irish legend my friend an Eire's best ever player we the fans 💚 ya the legend finally died tonight but with his boots on🇮🇪
Thankyou for being an inspiration to the world of rugby. It is sports, it all comes to the team performance on a single game that counts. God bless you and your families.
Absolutely heartbreaking after the final whistle but fair play to AB and best of luck in the final
Our boys have done us proud every single one of them and yiu all will go down in our history
Chin up Ireland 🇮🇪 you played a blitzing run and this is only the beginning. Ill be looking forward to the next era, watching you with every step. Enjoy the seeds youve sown and the hearts youve captured. 4 years? Pah! Its all one day.
This should have possibly been a final quality all round. Don't give up you have woken a monster Ireland and brought to the world a style of rugby that makes us all fall in love more with this wonderful game. We kiwis have endured the pain and it makes you better as a person. Keep it up you will get there for sure. I want to here Dolores again
Farrell seems very humble. Also a great coach. I hope he is the next Lions Coach
Andy Farrell all class and dignified in responses, when he thanked the reporter for the long question, summed up his class for me. Also Johnny Sexton is a World class player and competitor.
A couple of things though from an AB supporter he mentioned sucker punches, no such thing in Rugby, to continue the boxing analogy - protect yourself at all times.
Also in relation to the referee and scrum penalties, you have to adapt. If we are to look at the referee, the yellow card on Aaron Smith was a huge call to say it was intentional and that the Irish would have scored. The hole isn't there for Gibson Park if Smith is on the field and it's a very different game going into the half. That was way more telling than Jordies great defence
Thanks Johnny for all the great memories
Full respect to Ireland from this kiwi, Ireland could of so easily had won this game and all us kiwi's know that, that was 1 hell of a nail biter, all irish people can be very proud or Ireland 👍, please enjoy a few pints and support us for the rest of our world cup👍🇨🇮💪🏆
Thank you andy and team you have give us some of the best times we have ever had over the last 4 years rugby wins with people like you involved
As an all black fan the Irish deserved to go further they are a great team abs showed huge heart tonight and had to be at there absolute best to beat the irish ☘️ one of the best tests ive seen in years the ball handling from both teams was insane
All 4 All Black props played out of their skins!! Ardie and Sam Cane - what a jam that was!! Ka aroha Bundie - you have been the player of the tournament thus far. Still got lots of aroha for you in Aotearoa ❤
yes kiwis scored 5 of the 6 tries
This game deserved to be more than a quarter final, deserved to be a semi or even the big one, all respect to Ireland from NZ. To dominate rugby as you have been, can do nothing but respect that, your time will come, I don’t believe in this QF curse, this had the makings of a RWC final. Heads up Ireland. Love from an ABs supporter. 🤝❤️
This one hit much harder than the last RWC knock out seriously devastated. But well done to the ABs they turn up when it really matters. So sad to see Johnny go and thanks Andy 👏🏻☘️
I’m gutted for this magnificent team. They should be so proud of themselves. They shouldn’t have had such a difficult side of the draw. They have given us such joy. Thank you Johnny and Andy.
@@unaagnew6623 Agree pal we had hard draw but no exscuses we just fluffed it in the end. I think it was the nerves and pressure i was thinking before the game maybe it's time that they over came this obviously not I'm devastated. But it is what it is Irish rugby's still in good hands and in a good place. Before the game I wasn't been over confident just hopeful had a feeling the real ABs could still turn up and they did hope they go on to win it now and especially for Joe Schmidt who will always be a legend in Ireland.
Thanks for the memories guys, you did us all proud. No shame whatsoever. We love you all☘️🇮🇪
Two very humble gentlemen and great sportsmen; extremely gracious. Brilliant example of leadership at its finest.
Johnny your the best. My fecking hearts broken fore you. Thank you for everything you’ve done for us.
easily my favorite rugby player, thanks for the memories Johnny, streets will never forget 2013 lions tour Australia.....
As a Springbok supporter how is it that Ireland had such a tough pool and England can potentially make it to a semi final. Maybe it’s just me but it seems very odd as Ireland have been exceptional and should have at least made it into a semi final or final 🤔….
Well done to all, immensely proud of all of you, here's to another great 4 years, cheers
We shall..
I can’t cope with another 4 years of the saffas callin us bottlejobs😭😭
@@paulinemockler3736 ignore them, those that do were never comfortable in their own skin to begin. Prove them you're different and can take it with humility. Being gracious in defeat is key..
I'm pride of our boys fought tell the end . Well done new Zealand great game
Respect to the Irish Brothers from NZ🫡
Thanks Andy what you done for Ireland Rugby 😊
This is a tough one to get over. Thank you Ireland for what you gave us 🍀also to Johnny and everyone else who are leaving the team.
We are just a small nation who finally had some belief that our country may just get in a final and win it. It is a dream we would have loved to experience and we got excited over the possibility.
Thank you everyone here for your lovely comments.
Respect from NZ. Doesnt define the team, just came up against a hell of an ABs side. Down to 14 men for 20min was a massive effort.
Even when Johnny says that’s a long question Andy says we appreciate it and leads by example. We might not have the spine of the team anymore but we will get there.
You Lads can be proud of todays match! Another 30 seconds and it’s and Irish vs Argentina QF. Ireland can play some serious Rugby. Future World Cup winners for sure.
Lads you where unbelievable but just left it to late this match.. You have the hole of ireland behind you.... Win or losse we love yous..... Jonny your a legend bro
Bugger this was not a final. Pleased we won but Ireland are worthy finalists.
The real winner was rugby , so thank you. It was on par with the game between NZ and France a few years ago which France won. That too was where the game was a wiinner. As a kiwi , I am not sure if i was breathing during some phases of play. Thank you for reminding and demonstrating what a wonderful game truly is.
I felt depressed all morning as most Ireland fans, but it must be nothing compared to the players and the whole team. They have done Ireland proud and I'm sure will continue to do so.
I know how you feel, I felt the same when I woke up. I love this team and what they have done. Competitions can be cruel
Yes how heartbreaking 🇮🇪💚🍀
Feeling gutted for Johnny and the rest of the team and the amazing fans 💯🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
love ya Ireland from nz
This match is an instant RWC classic, and probably will be remembered as one of the greatest rigby games of all time.
Great game. Shame the lads lost. Farrell and Sexton true greats of rugby.
