I see that Jonny Sexton looks like he will miss the start of the 6ns. Not the issue it used to be for you.

Still a massive issue for us

Highly rated at Munster but he prob saw himself too far back in the Ireland 10 pecking order - I think he’ll go well for ye

I saw a bit about that yesterday, I think he has a Scottish mum. So must have an eye on him for the national team. Edinburgh struggle at ten, not sure Kinghorn experiment is working. Finn is 30, so a 23 year old 10 is a tantalising prospect.

How have I not seen this before

A 22/22. What a kick. Cracking match. Farrell evaded a red card, again, and instead won the game with the last kick.

Farrell gets reffed differently. Always has.

Hard to say that’s anything other than a red. Just poor technique in the modern game, don’t think it’s malicious but it’s a red simple as that.

[Buzzo]

It’s just staggering how often he gets away with it over the years. Agree, not malicious, it’s near the end of the game and he is absolutely gassed. But it’s rank technique, dangerous and a definite red.

There were apparently too many phases after for TMO to find it.

I think he will get cited.

Strong argument that the URC is currently a stronger league than the Gallagher Prem.

Eddie Jones appointed as Aussie coach! Dave Rennie sacked.

Under strength Leinster demolish Racing - maverick Russell with his usual bit of magic but Leinster power too much. I wish they’d send some of their bench to Munster!

[Buzzo]

Was a really even game, Racing we’re leading in the second half after Russell’s line break and wonder pass but Leinster bench was way stronger than Racings. Last 20 changed everything, they just blew Racing away.

I can only seethe South Africans stopping them, they are too good.

Edinburgh beat Saracens tonight

You didn’t bite at my Russell jibe - their depth is too much as you say but I don’t fancy them to win it. They’ll eventually get beaten by power
