Winters coming;all inclusive rugby thread.

Penalty to the Jocks for not releasing the ball?

Penalty Edinburgh for non release in tackle. Probably gave penalty to white for tackling a player without the ball.

If you fix the link I will take a guess.

Pen to Edinburgh ?

DOH!!!! 😆

That’s a cracker

Nothin given he waved play on. I find the number of tackled players just getting up and carrying on really anoying. He’d have been quick enough to ping the tackler for not reasing the tackled player!

That’s Ulster into the QF after labouring to a win against Glasgae in awful conditions.

SUFTUM

Shit performance from Glasgow. The really annoying thing is that we’ve done the exact same thing in every match. Played well for 20 to 30 minutes and then thrown it all away. This Heineken cup has been an embarrassment.

Still, could be worse, I could support Edinburgh. It’s shite being Scottish.

Lovely off load by Bastarderieu for that try.

Toulon looking glorious here!

bollocks thats all four international quality locks for wales injured!

Rhys O’Ruddock is a big lad aint he!!

Come on bighead kick the goals!!!

Walker could be very special

I hope leicester win, otherwise these two commentators will be really unhappy.

😯

Walker is a bit good isn’t he!

PACE!!

Tiggers strength of the bench showed.

Bollockyshitwank how many kicks did Biggar hit the posts with. Oh well as AA says the bench of Leicester was so strong.

Aye fatty bum bum was pretty good when he came on.

After this weekend, Farrell or Flood at 10? I can’t call it.

Probably the right result in the end, however how much did that pair hate Leicester? unreal standard of commentary.

I’ve also just switched over to ESPN classic which is showing the BaBa’s 1973 game against NZ. There’s been a scrum that the srum half has had two attempts to get the ball into and you know what? The scrum stayed still and waited. None of this hitting and falling over. I wish we could go back to those rules!

Listening with my eye i thought Barnes and Harrison were rapidly pro tiggers!!!

Then they were probably fairly even though. I think it’s that Barnes has a bit of a reputation for tiggers hating, so I always assume that he’s one sided.
Mind you, if I heard that bloody scrum half’s name one more time, I would’ve thrown my toddler at the screen! I think Barnes went down to the locker room to offer him some executive relief after!

Eli Walker – ‘kin ‘ell he’s quick!

Ospreys seriously lacking cutting edge without Beck. Bishop did a good job shutting down Tuilagi though. He’s the welsh Barritt. Shame him and Isaacs couldnt pass water though.

Tiggers strength of the bench showed.

Exactly. Just makes me wonder how well the Welsh clubs would do if the WRU shared some of it’s profits with it’s members.

Ryan Jones?@RyanJonesOnline

op time, see you on the other side!!

crap, wales well and truely screwed for locks in six nations.

Scotland training squad for 6N

Unsuprisngly only 7 Edinburgh players quite right since they have been so poor, although would have liked to see Tonks in as i think he has done pretty well. No place for John Barclay either.

Backs: Peter Murchie, Stuart Hogg, Sean Maitland, Tommy Seymour, Sean Lamont (all Glasgow Warriors), Tim Visser (Edinburgh Rugby), Max Evans (Castres), Matt Scott (Edinburgh Rugby), Alex Dunbar, Peter Horne, Duncan Weir, Ruaridh Jackson (all Glasgow Warriors), Tom Heathcote (Bath Rugby), Henry Pyrgos, Sean Kennedy (both Glasgow Warriors) and Greig Laidlaw (Edinburgh Rugby).

Forwards: Alasdair Dickinson (Sale Sharks), Ryan Grant, Dougie Hall, Pat MacArthur (all Glasgow Warriors), Ross Ford (Edinburgh Rugby), Euan Murray (Worcester Warriors), Geoff Cross (Edinburgh Rugby), Moray Low, Alastair Kellock (both Glasgow Warriors), Richie Gray (Sale Sharks), Jim Hamilton (Gloucester), Grant Gilchrist (Edinburgh Rugby), Kelly Brown (Saracens), Robert Harley, Ryan Wilson (both Glasgow Warriors), Johnnie Beattie (Montpellier), David Denton (Edinburgh Rugby), Richie Vernon (Sale Sharks), Chris Fusaro (Glasgow Warriors).

EDIT: Question for the Sale fans or anone else that may know has Fraser MacKenzie been playing and playing well?

Not rugby but this chap would make a good full back!

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/american-football/21014126

Dammit Beattie’s been called up, he’s been great at Montpellier so far this season and has helped make their 3rd row the best in the top14. Shame to see him waste the next 8 weeks playing for a team that doesn’t win games 😉

IIRC,although one of the Sale supporters may be along to correct me, McKenzie is not long back from long term injury, he was bloody good before that,indeed; on form is probably the best Scottish Lock at Sale.
(A-A rushes off to check if he has a Welsh Granny 😀 )

We’ll swap you for Shingler?

nasty!

Ronan ‘Bruce Lee’ O’Gara?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mCkHxSk3xWY
full incident here, the comment from Cox at the end is a classic

Cox is the singular of his own surname imo…..as is O’Gara.

I’d imagine Ronan will be getting a bit of time off!!

O’Gara trying to act hard is brilliant. He had a go at Phillips once who just laughed at him and Steve Jones too who I thought was going to kill him!!
