Woke up the 2 1/2 year old to tell him the score - likely the only time we'll ever beat NZ!

Delighted for the team & Joe. Should have done it a few years ago but they showed composure when it really mattered and players who have taken a lot of flack (Simon, Rob, Jamie) really showed their class today & all of them played exceptionally well.

Only criticism not on free to air TV & no live commentary from RTÉ

Richard Collumb



FANF***INGBLOODYTASTIC!

Alison Moore



Axel foley watching us all the way 8 8 Irish and always proud

Martina Byrne



That's what Irishmen (North and South) can do when they stand shoulder to shoulder. A truly epic and inspirational performance. ☘

Jon Bris Lightowler



I wasn't optimistic before this game. What a performance. What a team. What a win. Played 'em off the park. Absolutely fantastic performance from the Irish boys. We deserved that. On we go.....

Imelda Reidy



Ecstatic, elated, chuffed, proud and happily pissed

Audrey Hevey



Was in Christchurch in 2012 & Dublin in 2013 when Dan Carter broke my battered Heart. working Sunday's & stooopid time zones meant I woke up to the best score ever , & bawled. Off to wear black , eat kiwis & bask in the sunshine of a glorious victory. ( & possibly watch the game online ) so bloody proud
