Champions Cup 24/25 - Semi Finals - 3 & 4 May

[Gavin]

Feel like when both teams are French, the referee should be able to converse with the players in the language.

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Leinster doing their part preparing the Irish internationals for falling in the semis

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

This isn't very Toulouse so far. UBB have been class

 

[Ddanno]

Cor that was luvverrly

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

UBB are just insane.

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Shades of yesterday about this game, one team playing ball, except you feel Toulouse could nick it.

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Maybe not, is the Top 14 too easy for Toulouse?

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

jeez. . . it took Leinster and munster coming together to take Toulouse out of the tournament

 

[Ddanno]

Making Tameifuna play 30minutes feels cruel

 

[TRF_Olyy]

UBB beating Toulouse but losing enough important players to injury that Saints cream them in Cardiff

 

[Jimbo]

Nice to have a different final than expected

Who got injured only caught the last 10 mins? got dragged off to watch the circus who’d come to town.

 

[Ddanno]

Penaud looked like he'd done a hamstring, missed any others myself

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

An uncompetitive semi like that is terrible for the comp.

Penaud the main one, looked like his season's done

Jalibert subbed off after treatment but not seen any mention of an actual injury, so could've just been precautionary
Diaby subbed at halftime - not sure what for

 

[Becca]

Well, it could be a high scoring Final !

Can see both sides getting into the 40s.

I hope Saints fans (and biased 'neutral') turn out in spades, make it almost a home game and keep the French quiet

That would be nice.
The French are a raucous bunch

Getting to an international game at the Stade is very much on my bucket list. It looks like a sporting rave when it's jumping

Not sure the light show is something I could cope with
