Penalty try for Bath (& yellow for Glasgow). Yikes!

Try Glasgow AND Montpellier!

Montpellier won't try a leg, they haven't in the whole tournament to date so why start now? Because it's a home game against French opposition (who they know they can beat). They were doing OK up until that try! Results "as it stands" in Leinster's favour, anyway. Half-time Mon 9 v 13 Tou...

Pool 1: Clermont v Saracens - either win and top pool at 21-23 points Pool 2: Leinter on 20 Pool 3: Toulon v Scarlets - Toulon still top the pool (lose: 18 points, win: 24-25 points). Tigers can't catch up. Pool 4: Toulouse v Montpellier (If Toulouse win, they top on either 20 or 21 pts. If they los...

Regardless of which side of the MoC debate you're on, this is spot on!

Involved, as in he's like Bails' doctor's girlfriend's dog-walker's cable-guy's ma's new fella?

If Earls, and JJ were on the field even with Hurley/Keatley still left on, Munster still wouldn't have come anywhere near winning. That game was not lost by the backs.

How's that worked for them so far this season? Gopperth or Madigan at 10 haven't showed that either are capable of being reliable enough for territorial kicking to form a game plan around that. Not that that has stopped anyone, mind!

Munster were inept yesterday Quite the understatement. Hard to disagree with the rest of your post (although I think the Sarries of yesterday, even if made to look good, gave a much more polished 23-man game than of late, Billy V aside). Axel's homework against Leinster was proven not to be a fluke...

I thought this guy was being touted by Munster fans as the next Irish hooker because he could throw? http://balls.ie/rugby/gif-oh-dear-munster-make-case-worst-lineout-season/at_pco=smlrebv-1.0&at_si=54bbc7a772c1431b&at_ab=per-2&at_pos=1&at_tot=8 You think that's the hooker's fault? ...

Are the terrace dwellers about to lose their roof? No more "roof or view" decisions each match day?

And we're back to kicking away possession. 2 man advantage, a point down, and you hoof it straight to their backs (with plenty of cover).

McCarthy's no match for all those pies!

Even with the simple game plan, we should be beating a 14-man Cardiff hands down. Let's see how we do against 13 men! They're fired up, no doubt, but this is not the level we should be at.

Good call. Too many dangerous & high tackles get off with only yellow. Leinster need the advantage!

13-5 to Cardiff on 33mins (Cardiff down to 14 for the remainder)

Both 22s!

goreyguy wrote:Still sloppy in possession, how many knock ons already?

How many by McCarthy alone!?

Still, Jimmy attacking well, not kicking away possession once we reach 2nd phase, etc. Iron out some of the errors, and it'll be grand!

It will also dramatically raise your injury profile.
