Investec Champions Cup 23/24 - Rd 4

Maybe they wait until next weekend and use this opportunity to call up Barbeary. If not then Borthwick seems to be reasonably fond of Guy Pepper.

Good shout on Barbeary, forgot they're gonna need to drop someone for him

No hard feelings my friend, maybe next time you will compete with the double European champion

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Never seen that before: bringing players on from the bench to carry the stretcher

You're not even from La Rochelle, you only started supporting them because they started winning - you were a Montpellier fan like 18months ago

Your words really carry no weight

Kinda feels like they should just bin the game off. The result is clearly decided, the players’ heads clearly aren’t in it anymore. I know they can’t because points differences can make a difference to the table but even so.

 

[Ddanno]

Lmao

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Not a bad try considering we've 14 on the pitch, only 1 backrower and 3 props

Echoing what I said about AJ MacGinty - it's a shame Sam James isn't a natural athlete, because he's so skillfull but just doesn't have that top level speed or physicality to really reach the next level

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Big respect to Onasanya for going 71 mins and 80 mins in consecutive weeks as a 21 year old prop. Had a tough day today at scrum time but he’ll improve.

How many injuries are sale now carrying?

Few around like that around Alex Goode another example, obviously been and gone internationally but in his prime.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

How many injuries are sale now carrying?

Rodd, McIntyre, Harrison, Wiese, Hill, EvR, JLdP, DdP, T.Curry, Quirke, Manu, L. James, Tom O'Flaherty

Possibly Ben Curry, possibly Joe Carpenter

I think a good beer will calm you down.

You are truly frustrated.

Is every bath player sponsored by a different Dyson product?

That Toulouse lion has done some ****

 

[munstermuffin]

Faz and Ford both having comfortably the worst seasons of their careers right now.

If only there were 2 10s English that look awesome now. Both called Smith.

Today on bbc Scotland: Antoine DuPont is visited by the worlds greatest showman

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

That was nice

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Feel like Toulouse and Bordeaux are a league above everyone else this year. Struggle to see Leinster or La Rochelle competing with them right now.

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

So how many penalties before Toulouse get a warning?

At least TNT are over their Finn Russell obsession
