Neil Treacy is joined by Johne Murphy and Mick Kearney as we look back on Ireland's disappointing 23-13 defeat to New Zealand last Friday.
We debate whether or not Andy Farrell is being too conservative with his team selections (6:15) and if there will be changes for this Friday's meeting with Argentina.
We discuss Ireland's high error and penalty count (15:30), which contributed heavily to their performance, and Mick breaks down how Ireland's struggling lineout is limiting their attack (22:30).
Johne discusses the new interpretation around escort lines in the kick-space, which referees are clamping down on, and how it could lead to an exciting change in how the game is played (32:00).
And the pair pay tribute to Cian Healy, who looks set to make a record-equalling 133rd appearance for Ireland this week (40:50).
