[QUOTE="dullonien, post: 852242, member: 13739"] I won't gloat Alpha, I promise! Leinster were pretty poor today, but Scarlets put them under a lot of pressure, with Jon Davies superb in defense. The likes of James Davies, Byrne, Shingler were superb up front and put in a massive shift, especially after the red card. On the red card, letter of the law it was probably correct, but there was zero malice, and it's not as if he picked the guy right up into the air. It all happened a couple of feet from the floor and it was just a little clumsy. Hopefully he doesn't see a ban, because it doesn't deserve one and he's been superb all season, and during the first 40 tonight. Scarlets fully deserved that win and showed massive spirit as well as some sumptuous skills with their try's. How is James Davies not going on the summer tour? Jenkins, Young and Griffiths are all superb players/prospects, but Davies deserves a spot (maybe ahead of Griffiths who's a little further back in his development). Ospreys turn tomorrow now. Can't see them getting close though unfortunately. Their side doesn't look great though, especially up front. A scrum half on the wing, blindside at 8, and a struggling front row scrum time. They'll be wanting an open game, where they can get the likes of Giles, Evans, Webb and Tips into space. If Munster slow it down and dominate like they should up front and I can see the possession and territory stats being very one-sided! [/QUOTE]
