Is that fairy called Lucy?
I think this is a coin flip given BL almost lost the semi. I hope BL win but I think Lusitanos will win.

So far BL looks better..Todua is a tank

@Bruce_ma gooshvili just love those emodzis

 

[Bruce_ma gooshvili]

Any idea what the giant green inflatable is meant to be at the BL 22? A giant cat paw?

Yes, BL definitely with the edge in their forwards. I can see them playing more conservative like that since it is the final.

 

[Yulia]

Started bad for Lusitanos

 

[Bruce_ma gooshvili]

Deserved a try. Lovely offload out the back while falling over.

I'm going to lose emoji game hard here I see.

I have no clue. Looks more like something Irish tbh, like a shamrock

 

[Bruce_ma gooshvili]

Another nice move by Lucy. This time rewarded. Not so predictable after all. Water break in early May?

 

[Yulia]

Apparently it's very hot there now

 

[Bruce_ma gooshvili]

Apparently it's very hot there now

*is jealous*

The BL kicking game is atrocious. I don't want them winning if they are just going to try the rolling maul. Lucy infront.

 

[Bruce_ma gooshvili]

Messy game now. Don't know if it is the heat, but far less fluent than the two semis. The Lusi hooker is built like a scrum half!

 

[Bruce_ma gooshvili]

Ref puts the half out of its misery and blows time 3 mins early!

 

[Yulia]

It's because of the heat,no? Players look really tired because of it

 

[Bruce_ma gooshvili]

Second half has started the same way. Disappointing and with Lusitanos down to 14 I can't see them holding on to that lead.

 

[Yulia]

Pretty disappointing second half,yes.
That was the logo of Portuguese federation of Judo , not a shamrock

Any idea what the giant green inflatable is meant to be at the BL 22?

Jogos Santa Casa - Federação Portuguesa de Judo

[Bruce_ma gooshvili]

Of course. The national judo federation would have been my next guess!

At least the BL props stupid yellow card will make the last 10 mins interesting.

 

[Yulia]

Come on, Lusitanos,one try

 

[Bruce_ma gooshvili]

BL are champs but the last 60mins of that were the worst that I'd seen of this Tournament by a mile. The BL kicking game was atrocious and can't be blamed on the heat.

I don't feel so sorry for Lusitanos now their players are back in RWC qualification.

 

[Yulia]

My fairy didn't help, but the BL win was pretty predictable anyway.. Lusitanos were good though. Not the best match I've seen so far,but apparently all the players were struggling with the heat

 

[Bruce_ma gooshvili]

According to the RE CEO (who seems refreshingly coherent) they are going to bring forward the introduction of two of the four teams lined up for the 2023/24 season for next season.



No news on who these mystery sides / countries will be. Mild rumours Romania will be one for next year and that Poland will be one for the following year. No idea about the other two.
