I mean that Italy should have never been invited to the previously 5, now 6 Nations... our team is not good enough, our movement is not even comparable with yours (or the British Unions')... it's as simple as it looks...we just don't belong to that level of rugby... so, when they throw Italy off and replace them with a better team/program is a good thing, but they should have done it 20 years ago, at least...

OlympicIRL 4,756 Posted July 17, 2022 Author #117 Share Posted July 17, 2022 New Zealand 22-32 Ireland Ireland achieved one of the rarest things in sport by winning a test series against the All Blacks in their own backyard. They are the first nation to do so since France won a 2-mach series against them in NZ in 1994! It also moves Ireland to the top of the world rankings. It was a match full of records for all the wrong reasons for the All Blacks.... they trailed 3-22 at half-time which is their worst ever deficit at half-time in their history. It is also a 5th win for Ireland against the All Blacks in 8 meetings which is unthinkable given we went literally over a century to get our first victory against them.
