Connacht's Sean Cronin had a good run in Saturday's 18 38 defeat to the All Blacks. Ulster's Rory Best came off the field after 20 minutes with a fractured cheek-bone which gave the Connacht hooker an hour of game time in what was a thrilling 6 try encounter. Brian O'Driscoll and Stephen Ferris crossed the line for Ireland but 4 New Zealand tries, through Anthony Boric, Sam Whitelock and 2 from Kieran Read, killed off Irish hopes of an historic victory over the All Blacks.
