Rugby – Heineken cup

I in Belfast visiting relatives and have been made a honorary ulster man for the day.
It’s getting pretty big here; apparently 8% of the population went south to watch the semi! Considering the amount of alcohol I drank last night I’d be surprised if 8% of the population didn’t see my semi!
SUFTUM indeed!

Strong start from Ulster.

Breathless stuff!

Not a bad turn out for two rabo teams 😀

Thats that then

Lovely stuff from Leinster.

But for Sexton getting isolated there, that was another one.

Hmmm…interesting…

I may have been a little hasty but it will require a huge effort.

Kearney really has been smashing today hasn’t he?

Poor show from the Ulsterman there. Putting your team down to 14 men for the last ten minutes. 😐

Kearney really has been smashing today hasn’t he?

Hell yes! What a player.

Oh dear, poor BlindMelon…that’s a proper thrashing. Ulster can’t have any complaints. Leinster have been immense today. Well done to them.

Remarkable – their passing in the back line is fantasitc to watch. Not so long ago the likes of BOD looked as if he may finish his career without an HC. I really doubt 3 in four years will be matched.

Its a worry that english sides have only won 2 out of the last ten, and those were from the now no hopers Wasps.

I ended up not even seeing the match, I was at the self build show in Glasgow and didn’t get away in time, looks like we got a proper hiding, I hoped we could come close to Leinster but reading the reports it seems like we made too many errors and Leinster took their chances.

Nothing for second place so hopefully the new coach can take us a step further next season. Well done to Leinster, probably the best European team ever. Suppose it should be the Carlsberg cup!

There was more excitement in any single minute of the HC final than the entire 15 minutes that I’ve just watched of the other Euro final today.

Does anything ever happen in a soccer match? It’s duller than Sexton’s barnet! 😉

Thought I’d give it a try. See if it was exciting. It isn’t.
