Press Conference | Joe Schmidt after defeat in Dublin

[@DB-du6eg]

Joe, a decent smart honest man. Always welcome in any part of Ireland anytime.

[@x-latetv-x6816]

Absolutely, we will never forget the 6 years he done for ireland, what a great man and coach

[@TimothyHandley]

Australia has progressed such a long way under Joe Schmidt, and to lose by such a small margin against Ireland at home, I'd consider this a massive achievement. Good on you Joe and the Wallabies!

[@x-latetv-x6816]

Well done australia, ye pushed us to the limits and came out the wrongside, im so glad that australian rugby is on the up now, i was sad thinking australian rugby would implode but ye have avoided that, onwards and upwards

[@x-latetv-x6816]

Australia lost to pumas 67-27, that is such a devastating defeat, the way ye have come back from that is nothing short then inspirational, well done australia and hope good things respect from an irish fan🫡

[@LOGOS422]

Australia will be extremely competitive in the next 2 or 3 years with Joe in charge.

[@Coldstone666]

Agreed, Fingers crossed they don't axe him before then. I just wish they would see that the issue with Australian rugby does not start at the top. It has eroded from within over the last 30 years.

[@carolinemc3]

Joe is so pragmatic. Great effort by the Wallabies. Looking forward to the Lions 🦁

[@EddieSkyZ]

Lost by a fine points margin but well done Australia! Expect you’ll continue to build towards the Lions Tour and onwards to the WC 👏 Credit to Joe Schmidt! Nice to see you back in 🇮🇪. Fear Uasal 👍

[@x-latetv-x6816]

Welcome back to ireland joe, you are truly a good man and a good coach

[@quentinquentin6752]

Ireland fan here. Wallabies are a very different team compared to the RWC. They could have won that game tonight. Fine margins. There are some outstanding players in their ranks. They will only improve from here.

[@johnadams20132013]

Hes a class act

[@davidcronin1146]

Joe is a legend of lrish rugby made the lrish team what they are today.

[@x-latetv-x6816]

Absolutely

[@davidloughlin2238]

Joe has done wonders with Australia, what a transformation in the last few months. I am now looking forward to the lions tour.

[@Nattherat64]

Well done wallabies, very proud

[@mrhennessy2307]

We love ya Joe. Thank you for changing the game 🇮🇪

[@robmanning4912]

This guy is God. As a 40 year Wallaby supporter the light shines again.

[@gregcarroll9723]

Sounded very much like a farewell speech to the Wallabies. Good luck Joe and well done on lifting them back into a side capable of winning against the Lions.

[@darrylp2627]

He has 2 years in his contract so halfway there but no, he's not saying goodbye just yet but you do know the touring season is over, so he's going home to NZ for Xmas or is it Ireland he's spending christmas🤔

[@Nasher-ti1wc]

I missed this man,wish him all the best.From Cork..

[@x-latetv-x6816]

Im from cork, and joe gave us a great 6 years and really helped this irish team to progress and believe

[@leanndubh8385]

Massive respect for Joe and what he has done for Irish rugby and is now doing for Oz rugby. I think I would still be making this comment had Oz beat us, very close game in the end. Joe treated poorly in the end by Irish media when he finished up with Ireland, but the fans don't forget what you have done for us.

[@mikedee171]

Australia showed balls. Joe has improved them to no end.

[@robcousins231]

Wallabies always give Ireland a really hard game. They know how to play us. 2 years ago they went close to beating us as well, Mark Nawaqanitawase was unreal that game.

[@MarcDavidReich]

Joe. Don’t let one or two results get in the way. You’re on the right track. Looking good and getting better.

[@straights]

He's giving great honest feedback about Ireland's weaknesses and they ask about Sam Prendergasts performance.🤦🏻

[@CameronVerrills]

Bad Joe, was close performance whilst still showing our wallabies have some way to go forward As a wallabies supporter we guess you may not be there after the lions tour Thanks for showing your class in wanting to get us better for a home RWC Hopefully Mr Horne will stay to bring along the junior squad to present a better future for the wallabies Ciao Joe 🤙🤙🤙🤙🏄🏄🏄🏄

[@lloydftz65]

Probably the best coach in the world today. ABs mqde a mistake not appointing him head coach . Australia have gone from worst team to top 3 or 4 in just a few games under Schmidt. Wouldn't surprise me if they beat the Lions.

[@MrHairymick]

Love his outlook. but could press conferences please be mice'd up??? Can't hear shit!!!!

[@garyaldridge8955]

Wheres the microphone set up? The cliffs of moher..

[@graemehuia5964]

Beating the Lions down under now there's a thought.

[@michaelmccarthy9411]

Back to not being able to hear the questions is really annoying! Why can't they get this right?

[@markjones195]

Can'r hear the questions.

[@4054613]

Referee handed Ireland the win. Was worth about 15 points for Ireland

[@michaelmccarthy9411]

You must be English or Saffa!

[@theriddler5601]

@@michaelmccarthy9411Tell me you dislike South Africans and English people without telling me you dislike them.

[@michaelmccarthy9411]

@theriddler5601 I don't dislike them but they are the usual suspects for that kind of post. They left out the cheating allegations this time. Must have forgotten
