Only caught a bit of the first half of AB match and none of Aus this weekend. Really mad set of results (manner for Aus, margin for ABs). All teams now with two wins and losses, probably a first at this stage of the comp? Away wins galore and really unclear who is going to win the comp. In Australi...

Felix Jones and RG Snyman doing their part in demolishing the ABs tonight.

DOB

ABs havent’ fired a shot this half.

Even Will Jordan’s forgotten where the line is.

DOB

But couldn’t hold out Leinsterman RG Snyman.

DOB

That’s an unbelievable try-saver by Leinsterman Jorden Barrett.

DOB

Right, I'm in an enormous club sports bar with the Warriors on at ine end the the ABs- Bok pre-match at the other. And a jug of Emerson's pils in front if me. It's all very new and flash, yet somehow I feel like I've travelled back in time. I know how you feel. It’s almost like someone already post...

Kieran Reid has really done the “retire from rugby, quit the gym, get skinny” bit.

DOB

The pass into the dirt costing Aussie the comeback chance is a pretty fitting end to the game, tbh.

DOB

I know it was a long shot from that distance, but I thought they probably should’ve taken the 3 after the high tackle, and THEN go for the try.

But they might get a chance after all.

DOB

That’s marginally forward. It’s one of the least forward forward passes I’ve ever seen called.

DOB

Puma 11 bought that penalty, but the Wallaby was dumb enough to walk across his line.

DOB

Is suali’i a double agent or something?

Hopefully he can add something

Subbing on Bieber and taking off the lead singer from the Chats is a big call, alright.

Old Fortycoats still in the dressing room for the Wallabies.

Has the London Māori community commemoration of Kirk been posted yet?

DuPont will also get the ball away quickly and keep his team on the front foot.

Surprised he went so hard into Rowntree, the general Munster stuff is something a lot of us have been saying for a long time. It's interesting to see it come from a player. Albeit my own view was always that Murray was a type of player that was perhaps not as useful at the end of his career as had ...

DOB

Never heard of him before his death today. After searching him up on Twitter I came to the conclusion that he f^cked around and found out. I don't think he deserved to die for his beliefs but that's the funny thing about people. If you court controversy sooner or later you'll be caught by someone. ...

Daniel Levy GOOOOOOOONE as chairman from Spurs. I did the numbers after the Europa League win, and even with that European trophy, the 2 league cups won in 25 years make Levy/ENIC’s tenure in charge the least successful in terms of silverware in the club’s history.

Definitely think Movistar should move mountains to get Ayuso. Kid's a massive talent, and they should want him in a Spanish speaking team. It might take a literal Spanish Denis O'Brien type to move the needle on it.

DOB

It’ll be interesting to see where he ends up; Movistar have been a GC team in search of a GC leader for a few years now, so it would make sense for him to go there, especially as he looks like a genuine talent who could, possibly, being 4 years younger, be the one to actually start pressing Pog. Mov...

Gaudu got to wear the jersey for just 25 minutes and 50 seconds in-race. Vingo back in red, but with Ayuso and Almeida just 8 seconds back now after UAE won the TTT stage.

Mountain stage up to Andorra should open some time gaps tomorrow.

DOB

Gaudu finished 25th, Vingo 41st, so the Frenchy takes the red jersey in France.

I didn't read the fine print for tomorrow, and realise that it's a TTT. No chance of FDJ finishing ahead of Visma, unless their TT bikes get nicked.

DOB

Nice move by Gaudu to get on the inside of Pedersen at the finish today. In his career, Gaudu has outsprinted Wout van Aert to a Dauphine stage, and now Pedersen. He’s collecting some scalps.

Gaudu is equal on time to Vingo, but there’s a flat ITT on Wednesday, so that shouldn’t last.

The past 2-3 weeks I have been able to view the main page, showing al the threads, but (on my phone not laptop) not any of the pages of the actual thread. It just comes up with a Bad Request message.

Evenepoel transfers to RBH Florian Lipowitz must be going wtf!! I'm sure that he saw himself as next year's TdF leader for RBH. Lipowitz is still the more proven climber in the team. It will be interesting to see what Bora do with the 2, whether they give them a GT each, or send both to the Tour as...

DOB

He played 7 more early on, but he’d definitely lost some pace after one of his injuries and was never as effective there. It looks like I was wrong above; Leavy didn’t officially retire until 2022, which was the same year vdF won World Player of the Year, so there was a bit of overlap. But I still m...

Leavy was always more of a 6 than 7, you could definitely have him and vdF either side of Conan/Doris at 8.

VdF only became the player he is now after Leavy had retired, iirc.

Any pro era player eats any amature for breakfast If that’s the standard, Blair Mayne would win hands down. Another Lion.

Not like for like. Any pro era coach would love to get their hands on a young Geoghegan or McBride or O’Reilly.

Imagine if Beirne had been lost to rugby because of some idiot in the Leinster setup, possibly our greatest lock/ backrow ever, actually no possibly about it he is. Just shows even the lads tasked with 'knowing' their shīt are spoofers. If his ability was so obvious why didn't another province nab ...

TOB has a habit of throwing himself into tackles in such a way that he’s almost guaranteed to get hurt.

Lowe was our best player in the six nations a few months ago. Wtf are people smoking saying he's done?! Those BBC ratings are silly. Explain to me how Scott Cummings had a better tour than Lowe. Lowe is 33. Which is already old for a wing. You don't think we should be looking at alternatives to him...

The lowest… think about that.

You mean… the Lowe-st! Amirite?
