Re: Toulon v Munster, HEC Semi-final, Sun April 27th, KO @ 1

I think all rugby lovers should be in awe of both games this week. Phenomenal standards in both. This is as good as it gets.

Just one more hurdle for Jonny. And boy oh boy I hope he does it.

No. You cannot penalise on outcome or intent.

Garces sent Hogg off for less. He got a little flak, not much but a little, for that, hence him taking his time.

This was marginally worse IMO.

If you walk along the backs of the Seine, if you are very very lucky, you'll often come across a local who has found a solid gold ring and will let you have it very cheap if you're a bona fide tourist.

Buy it immediately as you'll make a lot of money on it.
