November Rugby Internationals (On the sesh with the Goys)

You’d want to be a Keith Earls level to be a traditional winger now. I’d say he hardly made a mistake out there in the last 5 or 6 years of his career.

He might get the chance to take on a bit more now anyway, Munster are really relying on him.

Lowe got a solid rating of 6 in the Irish Times this morning.

Stupid penalty.

At fault for a try.

Missed at least three tackles

Offered nothing in attack

It’s bizarre

In general, no. On the basis of yesterday, maybe. Lowe has a higher ceiling but he’s coming to the end. There’s only a year between Nash and Stockdale, I’d probably prefer to see more of stockdale. Basically Nash is decent and will do a job if we can’t find anyone better.

I reckon you’ve just described Simon Zebo there.

Bad form singling Finlay out like that.

Not from Leinster automatically deducts you a point or two

It’s just gas.

Prendergast gets the ball. Stalls and gets isolated and turns the ball over.

Dave McIntyre: “Sam Prendergast is ozzing class and confidence”.

What’s a croc-roll?

When you’re busy and need to eat something in a hurry go to the deli and ask for a croc roll and make it snappy !

Harsher than usual?

The crocodile roll is also one of the aspects of the game that World Rugby describes as “the action of rolling/twisting/pulling of a player on their feet in the tackle area”.

The technique puts tremendous pressure on the knee joint, sometimes catastrophically so.

A fair few of the young lads have already picked up some fairly hefty injuries tbh.

Sigh

I thought it deserved more . Too long for a delivery ?

Massive left boot

Fist pumping for successfully kicking a ball off the paddock whilst losing

@binkybarnes it looks like I was about 20 seats to the right and a couple to the back of you last night. I didn’t know such shit seats were in the Aviva before. We couldn’t see the first try and the disallowed try in the corner because a massive beam was in the way. Also couldn’t see either screen. If I had paid for those tickets I’d be raging.
