Investec Champions Cup 23/24 - Rd 3

I knew he was quick but that was crazy, did not know he was THAT quick

Has all of the tools to be absolutely world class but just doesn't know how to use any of them.

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Russell just taking names out there

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Pretty sure that was forwards... Feels like Bath could really fall off in the 2nd half. We don't look like getting control of this.

 

[General Melchett]

Who is meant to be organising Bath's defence?

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

That is a shocker from Annett

 

[General Melchett]

22-8 down and trying that? What a waste

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Pretty insane work rate from Woki to get out of the scrum as a lock and make a try-saver so quickly (even if it didn't turn out to really be a try saver).

 

[TRF_Olyy]

What's that call?
Why would it be a scrum 5 to Bath?

Surely it's either a try to Bath or...held up? Double movement? Something like that?
I don't get what would lead to a Bath scrum

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Barbeary has some holes in his game but the man sure knows how to carry in close quarters.

Munster twitter have the knives out for Larmour this morning lol. I don’t think he should get a start in the 6n but they’re so predictable. Larmour had a good game and some nice highlight reel moments, the reaction is embarrassing.

To be fair saw game and Larmour had good game. But hard to judge against a poor Stade team I'm sure you'd accept.

Munster twitter the official 1 didn't even mention Leinster. So again that is lies.
Also yes some "fans" probably had a go at Leinster. Equally saw plenty coming other way too.
1 comment was "If Nash is ahead of Larmour again then Andy Farrell should be sacked. Screwing up once is forgiveable bit twice is a joke"

Another was "If Nash is seen as international class the game has gone to pot. Wouldn't get in our second 23"

And last was "If Nash is ahead of Larmour then it just IRFU giving in to turnips as he is a terrible rugby player overall"

So maybe predictable but show full picture and not twisted to suit a 1 way thing.

Again would state Munster twitter had nothing about Leinster

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Cokanasiga’s hair is way too perfect for a man who has played 63 minutes of rugby.

Ollie Lawrence is phenomenal.

Game on.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Great try,
Horrible tackle on Barbeary, zero arms just threw his body at his shins, could've ended horribly

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Silly boy.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

If he wanted to be the replacement for prime Binny then he's definitely on the right track:

• Fantastic carrying
• Doesn't like gym
• Dumb as a box of rocks

Oh well guess Barbeary won't be England 8 this 6n...

He won’t get a ban for dual yellows. However if he’s cited for his first yellow (which he probably should be) then he may get a ban for that.

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

@munstermuffin ”team” twitter always means the fans of the team on social media

The first should have been a red.. so he'll be getting a ban

Yeah be interesting to see what happens with that first tackle, they've definitely been a lot more lenient since the rwc

6 halved then minus one for tackle school means he'd be available for the first game of the 6N

With how much Bath rotate this season he'd probably only play one of those anywah

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Sods law, I have to go away to sort out some other stuff, come back and I've missed Bath's entire comeback. TBH Racing could probably feel a bit aggrieved, we should have been playing with 14 nearly all game.
