Yes, and absolutely not whinge for this game, but now more teams are taking the full 90 secs it's very clear that 45 would probably be fine rather than 60. Johnny Wilkinson started this bollox, just make the time limit 15seconds and stop encouraging OCD routines and time wasting You can also see as...

10 tries, 90 seconds per conversion - 15 minutes of game time taken up. that has to change.

What?
It's text, what's the problem?
It was a question not an exclamation. What does Connors offer that we need over VDF against Toulouse?

He’s bigger stronger and puts down the big men better

He kept looking back for support because he knew he was too slow, if he just put the head down and pegged it he would have done better

Leinster looked a bit unfit, or haven't played enough- an edge missing. Steel sharpens steel etc. I think/hope Nienaber is using the Bok method of peaking for the final - sending basically a C team to South Africa last week, before he arrived we would probably have sent a much stronger team. Just l...

I'd be interested in seeing Doris's stats because my sense is he had another one of those games he too often has, where he drifts out of games and makes little impact It's not quite a full picture but Doris had the joint second involvements (pass/run) outside the half backs with 21 (Henshaw top wit...

Lads, that felt like a loss

Is it the Nienaber way - just stumble your way to a trophy

Saints had this if they had a bit more composure in the first quarter

They ain’t dropping Ross for the final. Get your money on Quins

“Knock on advantage”

Raynal is a shambles of a test referee

He lets a lot go for both teams, I like that style he lets the lads play

His last two plays weren’t great were they. He’s playing it a bit too loose today

I’m fairly sure he’s doing a Heaslip and deliberately avoiding those plays to try to lengthen his career

I was actually thinking that 15points wasn’t a great return considering the domination

Have to say I don't think Ryan is a loss, and Osbourne looked really good. Keenan- yeah that's a big loss deffo. It's a fairly clueless to suggest James Ryan is on par with Ross Molony. It's not even close and, frankly, a bizarre opinion that could only be formed by someone who has barely watched L...

Everyone is expecting a Leinster Toulouse final (and I think it'll be epic, having the 2 best teams in the comp on the final) bit upsets can happen and I think both Saints and Quins are capable of causing upsets.

So essentially Duff (based on his recent increased interest in posting on the topic) is far more angry about the protesters protesting against the mass murder of children than he is about the actual murder of the children themselves.. Truly a position you'd be proud to tell the grandkids about. Yea...

A 300k transfer fee is interesting. I wonder can Munster do anything with that or does it just come off the debt? Spending it to buy Dan Kelly out of his contract by some accounts... Don't see that happening. He's no longer Irish qualified and they already have Nankivell. Tom Farrell coming in from...

Rabbi Schmuley, carrying a megaphone and accompanied by some companions, walked into the middle of a group of students in NY yesterday and accused them of being pro-Hamas. For me the clear intention was to provoke an incident which they could then spin as a Rabbi being attacked on the streets of Ne...

This thread is hilarious - anyone who makes an argument against the lefties and it’s automatically whataboutery or shrieking about it beinf a straw man. Nobody is defending Israel’s completely disproportionate actions but you lads are just naive fools to be frank.

The west has direct influence over them given all the political backing, funding and military aid. Not so much elsewhere with the other horrible shit. You can see the distinction here, surely? Okay pull their funding yah for the left, then watch Iran invade and sure let’s have a bit of WWIII great ...

So everyone should just leave Israel alone and let them continue committing atrocities because there's other bad stuff happening other places in the world? Good point... I'll give them a free pass from now on. Literally nobody is giving them a free pass. The Americans have literally never been more...
