Can anyone explain a part of the rules to me.  

In the 5th minute an Irish player blocked a pass with his hand and didn’t gather the ball, conceded a penalty for that.  Later in the game, an Irish player was kicking to clear and an All Black blocked the clearance by raising both arms above his head and the ball hit his arm, no penalty.

Is there a difference if you are kicking or throwing?

I didn't watch the game, so didn't see the incident, but, in answer to your question, Yes.

A deliberate knock on results in a penallty, whilst charging down a kick doesn't.
