Neil Treacy is joined by Bernard Jackman and former New Zealand and Auckland Blues hooker James Parsons to look ahead to this Saturday's quarter-final between Ireland and the All Blacks.We look at how both sides are shaping up ahead of the game at Stade de France, and whether Ireland's injury issues will catch up with them (7:25).Parsons explains the impact Ireland's Test series defeat of the All Blacks has had on the side (12:00), while Ireland will also be hugely motivated to prolong Johnny Sexton's career (15:20).The panel breaks down the attacking and defensive structures for both sides, and speak about why the breakdown will be the deciding factor in Paris (24:10).And we also examine the impact Joe Schmidt has had with the All Blacks in the last 12 months, and how influential his coaching could be on Sunday (31:50).
