That was ridiculous

Who else?

Heady play by Lucu to deliver a hospital pass to give him more room for the grubber

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

This ref's interpretation of advantage is the only bad thing I have to say about this.

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

Premiership teams are getting better at this but the ability for these guys to find the scrumhalf after getting tackled is insane. No need to bring two guys to the ruck.

That Toulouse pack is very impressive.

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

It’s crazy how good Lucu (and la gerrec) are yet they are a distance second choice

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

Shots of the ruck from a ground camera in a full stadium are absolutely beautiful

How can Tameifuna go off @31 then come back on @56

Does the Top 14 have rolling substitutions?

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

yeah they have 12

 

[AlRums]

Kinghorn's having a good game

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

I don't know who I want to win. On the one hand, I'd love Leinster to end Toulouse's unbeaten run, on the other hand, there's absolutely no reason for me to be so optimistic that that's plausible so if it happens again a seed of doubt would be nice.

The Top 14 is a higher quality competition than the European Cup. The URC and Prem have some teams that could hang in with it but both had playoff teams this season that'd be more focused on avoiding relegation than getting into the barrages.

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

if this commentator is the standard for southern hemisphere rugby I get why the game is dying there

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Yes I want extra time. Come on bald man.

 

[big ginger 8]

Drama.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

We want a shoot out, we want a shoot out

URC, glass houses etc.

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

These lads are exhausted

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

This is the most emotional I’ve felt watching a non Philly sporting event
