Re: Heineken cup Semi Final 2 - Toulouse vs Harlequins

10 tries, 90 seconds per conversion - 15 minutes of game time taken up. that has to change. Good point. Let's have fewer tries Clock should be stopped at zero, so no time is lost at all. But, a secondary clock starts and it should be 25/30 seconds, not 90. If not met, restart free kick of choice fo...

In the end, not great. France too lateral and the new winger not too sure she added much. Like the props, but after that.

Wales will lose badly to Italy next week. 0 from 5 beckons and I think a whole lot of questions need to be asked.
