He wasnāt too bad but that knock on was criminal. Thatās always been in his game as well.
They could have done with o Brien. Osborne got blown out of it when Dan Sheehan made that break.
He doesnāt strike me as a natural captain type. He wasnāt overly keen on it for Munster was he? Probably will have to be him.
Surely they look at Coombes during the summer tour.
Watch the replay of itā¦Osborne and DuPont start side by sideā¦DuPont has to slow down when he gets to the breakdown and gets around and back in through gate and wins race to the ballā¦pure and utter desire won the turnoverā¦Osborne was in pole position
Yep heās like a kid.
Your man michael alaalatoa has some head on him. Almost like heās never played a game of rugby in his life and heās desperately hoping nobody notices.
I havenāt seen much of Osborne but he looked a bit ponderous yesterday. A bit one-paced
He had a poor game yesterday but wouldnāt be too harsh. He was up against a brilliant defence. He will be a v good player in time
I overheard a great interaction in The Beehive pub in Tottenham while queuing for pints pre-kick off on Saturday. A group of South Dubliners comparing NFL to rugby. They reckoned that an NFL kicker may only feature for a matter of seconds but would require a different kind of explosiveness to their rugby counterparts. The consensus was that much greater physical endurance is required in rugby though. It was like something straight out of a Ross Oā Carroll Kelly book.
DUB was full of middle aged men still wearing their Leinster gear from yesterday.

Jesus Christ is that place still going,I remember going there before weād go to the odd premier league game back in the late 90s when I lived in turnpike lane.
He was a large reason for the toulouse try. He shot in and turned his shoulders in when he should have held his line and shaped his shoulders out to use line as extra defender. He actually turned full 360
For the trysaver he made, he cost them that one.
6 of em in front me, 3 of em wearing Toulouse jersies. Utter fucking weirdos
Heās in a very dark place there, the poor auld craytur. After Pearse Stadium yesterday, I know his pain.
A good few Munster fans have a serious chip on their shoulder about Leinster and the success theyāve enjoyed since Munster went to shit after the 2009 semi final.
Leinster are the standard bearers from the URC and the only URC team to make a Euro final since Ulster in 2012. Munster havenāt made a final in 16 seasons, it wonāt be long until they have lads playing for them who werenāt born when they last won.
Iām sure their fans will still turn up at finals and support whoever is playing against Leinster and have a good laugh if Leinster lose.
