I'm glad I didn't read it now!

I see Glasgow’s online fans are whinging about the referee again. Is it may imagination or is this the default reaction for Scottish teams now? Including the national team, I mean They’re approaching Saffer levels of paranoia and bad sportsmanship Its not just them Glasgow getting whistled off the ...

Glasgow getting whistled off the pitch. 11 or 12 pens, plus a YC, in the 1st half alone.

I think both Harry and Ross are fine players and I don't really have a preference for one over the other. But, and lets be honest here, are we not arguing over what our favourite shade of magnolia is? It's not as if we're arguing the difference between two entirely different but equally brilliant p...

That’s pretty poor from you Dexter, you’re normally an excellent poster. As a long time City fan, I’m well used to the media hatchet jobs & the rants of bitter rival fans over the years but it’s disappointing to see tired cliched sh1te like that here. That's me told! Apologies if my dislike of ...

Abu Dhabi City are the equivalent of a Toulon/Saracens/La Rochelle combo.
Horrible.

Sorry to hear you have been unwell tigerburnie. I have always enjoyed your balanced posts on here. Leicester, for all its extraordinary successes over the years, has always had a proper bunch of fans who have been far more interested in the game og rugbyvthan in trying to land cheap shots on opposi...

Ruaidhri O’Connor: Leinster have become Europe’s big underachievers – they have to win the Champions Cup this year Ruaidri is jsut re-hashing the same oul shite he did last year. Leinter are the best team in the world and if they fail to win everything they are losers. No mention of how good the Fr...

Of course stats matter, it almost feels like some of the commentary is drifting into "it doesn't matter if we miss tackles", it matters and the coaches know it matters when they review. La Rochelle was a bit of a freakshow game where we benefited significantly from horrendous conditions. ...

You look at the stats for that game and it's hard to figure out how we won it. I was at the game and it's the wettest rugby match i've ever been to, I was absolutely drowned. The story of the conditions was the 17 turnovers they conceded often in critical positions. For both finals, their ball rete...

Did you not hear that he's in great form this season and should have played in the 6N?
I read it in the Indo so it must be true.

Lads, it's Billy Barry, not Billy Billy. Don't be getting his name all wrong.

Media narrative around Leinster most seasons until now "Leinster are firing from all cylinders, but you have to wonder will they be able to sustain it when they hit the tail end of the season" This season "Leinster aren't really firing on all cylinders yet, you have to wonder will th...

Whatever about people's opinion on the venues, the advantage of a season ticket has become more and more marginal over the last number of seasons. Less regular-season games (and more KOs) means the financial advantage is very small, missing one game might nullify it. The paltry allocation of tickets...

I missed the first 20 mins but the scoreboard certainly doesn't reflect the game I saw. Munster must have been brilliant in the first 20 or how did they get so far ahead? One very good try to start off, followed by two intercept tries, the second of which featured some comedy defense from Owen Will...

Are the officials Italian?

The prop-er use of the word "Legend".
Phenomenal player and incredible career.

And yet we continue to see clear-outs from the side of the ruck being routinely ignored by officials.
Drives me mad.
