This is an emergency now thanks to the IRFU
Does Sexton go in there and put the Blazers in a headlock until they sign a central contract or something?
And does the same to Farrell telling him not to pick Cooney.
Yeah, lots of weird shit tbh.
Ruddock can't buy a cap from Farrell/Schmidt either,

I wouldn't mind if he was actually a tough nut in defence but he fúcking isn't

Its exactly the type of cheap shot on a prone player I always hated the Boks for.

Physical my bollocks its flat track bullying

Ruddock at 6 is the only change I'd make if all fit. Lowe and Earls will play because of the lack of options.
The bench though.
Billy, no thanks.

So much of his game now is playing not to get hurt, it makes him so easy to defend and is a killer for the outside backs.

I love him and there's no one remotely close to ready behind him but it still hurts to watch.

This is bollocks though isn't it? No one remotely close to him :lol: He is a waste of a jersey

Sexton and POM are done. It's like ROG in Edinburgh out there with these lads. No ifs and buts on this and we'll see if Farrell has the balls now to make the obvious calls.

Billy Burns even togging out in an extended squad was always going to come back and bite someone. That was an absolutely vile cameo. What a useless prick. That wasn't even close at the end to the corner flag.

Headless is a bit unfair. Yes, he doesn't control a game but he's sharp and if he's given runners he hits then well and quickly. He did a lot of good in the time he was on but he's still not a starter. Needed to come on earlier.

He had one good knock back and another chase and tackle but that's about it. I'm sure he hit a few rucks but he very much was in the negative by half time.

Still can't believe Burns at the end there - did Lowe put him off? I thought it was strange he was having a word with Burns as he was lining up to strike the ball. Absolutely horrendous mistake though, unforgivable.

Dropping Porter for Furlong already :lol: :lol:

He was immense today. Most of the pack were great. The ones who managed to stay on longer than 13 minutes.

That'll be a shitty last game story for POM and Sexton. Wtf was Jonny moaning about this time when he came off?

It's hardly left field to suggest it but I think Porter did enough to fight off Furlong for another week.
