Is it all over for the all blacks?

They seem to have taken their eye off the ball, har har.
A series loss to Ireland (a country with a smaller population)
and five losses in their last eight meetings, when they had
never previously lost to Ireland during their 110 year playing
history, will have humiliated a team that is convinced it is the
world's best in a country that has fok all else to crow about.

long way to World Cup'

Whaddaya mean! They have the world famous Pak'nSave supermarket
brand!
I see NZ also had an average end of season tour last year losing
to South Africa, Ireland and France so the rot has been setting
in for a while

I'm surprised that the woke brigade haven't demanded that they
change their name or be cancelled.

The All Blacks were walloped by Les Bleus (The C.ocks) last
weekend, the first game of the 2023 Rugby World Cup. Is the All
Black dominance at an end & are they now just a bunch of Nancy
boys?
And why can't Pismire ever afford to attend 1 of these
tournaments?

New Zealand and Ireland have very similar populations 5.2 and
5.1 million respectively and a similar demographic with median
age around 37 in both countries. Performance tends to go in
cycles, with players getting long in the tooth but still being
picked, until a new generation takes over. New Zealand will be
back.
The interesting thing is the Saffies. It seemed that they were
on the way to also runs a while back, now they’re probably the
best team in the world.

Agreed.
Truer than not.
It's all about cyclical matter - especially within the realm of
the sporting world.
Tradition.

Rugby world cup 2023 getting close to the quarter finals and the
dim-witted IRB (or World Rugby as it is now known) will have the
current top 4 teams in the world - Ireland, France, South
Africa, New Zealand - playing each other in the quarter finals.
So 2 of the top teams will be going home before the semifinals.
Like Duh!
Talk about a bore so far in pool play - someone in the top 5
will demolish a country nobody even knew played rugby by 80
points.
They need a rethink on the format of this tournament
