The Rugby Thread (Part 2)

England and France have the right idea when it comes to the 4 year cycle. Ireland will probably try get Sexron to come out of retirement and flog Peter O M for the entire tournament

Seems bizarre to me Owen Farrell isnā€™t loved by English fans? Seems very strange to me.

He said spending time with his family, I can see why you took the shot but Iā€™m not sure you had enough of a sight of the goal to make it count tbh

Yeah heā€™s a cracking player and good guy.

Hopefully his health recovers enough to come back far the big one next year.

Reminds me of the abuse Iā€™ve seen Lar Corbett get from his own supporters back in the day. Conor Mortimer to a much lesser extent too.

ā€œFuck off Mortimer, Mayo will never win an All Ireland with you playingā€

ā€œYou fucking wont win it without me eitherā€

Both were right

Heā€™s too Northern

Courtney Lawes gone as well, Iā€™d say they donā€™t rate the young lads or the set up.

Be interesting see what Itoje does, he is due a big paycut and they wonā€™t be winning the 6N. I wonder might he go to Japan.

I could see him wanting to still play top level club rubby. A move to somebody like Toulouse or La Rochelle would suit him.

Would love to see him at La Richelle, they might need a bit of rejuvinating. Age profile isnā€™t great.

Jesus Kelleherā€™s throwing is gone rotten.

That Schuman fella destroyed the young Ulster lad tonight. They can bring all the Saffers they want, canā€™t hide their true nature.

Osborne for Leinster is absolute class, could play anywhere.

Some try from Connacht, impressive

Liquid rugby from Connacht

Massive for Connacht. Need to win lineout now and get ball down the other end of the field. Cant keep playing in their own half and not cough up pts.

The ambush is well and truly on tonight.

Leinster should take the points on next pen, get rolling
