What's the bets Connacht beat Stormers and Ulster beat Leinster?

Every other result has gone away from us

Pretty much. Fuck sake.

Yup, they were gift wrapped a home route to the final and have shat the bed big style

Jebus.

WTF Glasgow.

Glasgow making heavy weather of this. I expect they will win but against 13 or 14 for 20 mins now and you’d never know.

Why is the game chat in here and not the URC thread?

We often have a chat in our own thread. I find game threads difficult to follow; team threads are easier because we are all outraged by the same things

Who made the decision to go for the corner. Dull dull dull. Nah, they had to go for the win. We didn't get the rub of the decisions and that decided the result. That extra point would have put them 6 ahead of both Lions and Benetton. It could have meant going into the final game week mathematically...

Edinburgh gave away a point there. That might prove to be very thick.

That is another very shit penalty call

Who made the decision to go for the corner. Dull dull dull.

I used to have that issue years ago. See if you can press the stream button THEN choose your match. That worked for me back in the day.

Haha, well referee decisions really do balance out. I would never have given that, not in a month of Sundays

I don’t think they can give this, but it’s probably a try

Oh my fucking god

How the fuck was that not a collapse of the maul? There must have been 4 red shirts hit the deck first there?

Ridiculous.

Munster did pretty well out of that passage of play. Knocked on at the lineout, snyman late hit, snyman starting the rammy lying on Healy and choking him but penalty against Edinburgh for Mata falling over.

Haha, that’s an outrageous decision.

That was pretty bloody good. Edinburgh still look a bit unimaginative in the backs but they are looking fantastic up front.

Of course, anyone would. Anyone would be mad not to, he's arguably been the most effective player in world rugby for many years and a huge part of Ireland's success. And I'm allowed to hate him. Surely he's the archetypal, no, the quintessential player that you absolutely loathe unless he is in you...

Hoping one of you knows how this should work... My Viaplay subscription ends in a week. The URC matches are now on Premier Sports. Viaplay are offering me a good deal (£59 for the year) to continue the subscription. But am I right in thinking that won't give me Premier Sports access? Do I need to s...

Yr Alban wrote: ↑Fri May 10, 2024 8:35 pm Two late tries actually put some polish on this in the end. Ah well, the expected result. Need to keep pushing for top 8.

My guess was 6-8 points for a top 8 finish, 5 points in this game was a good start. There is still a decent chance Connacht get nothing in their final 3.

Good to see Cammy Scott on.

BP secured for Edinburgh (presuming they don’t fuck it up and lose) but they’ve been drawn into a shit fest by Zebre. A bit more structure and a little more smarts and they’d have skooshed this.

Edinburgh Rugby team to face Zebre Parma at Hive Stadium in the BKT United Rugby Championship Friday 10 May (kick-off 7.35pm) – live on Premier Sports ... Unavailable: Emiliano Boffelli (back), Connor Boyle (back), Tom Dodd (bicep), Darcy Graham (groin), Jake Henry (hamstring), Robin Hislop (knee),...

Happy birthday to Pierre Schoeman. On a related note, as of today there are no capped Scottish loosehead props who are under 30 years of age. I expect McBeth will tour in the summer, but your point stands, there isn't exactly a conveyor belt of talented props coming through. Venter still has two ye...

Fuck me, he’s not quite a childhood hero of mine (that’d be big Gav) given he’s a decade younger than me but Hoggy was a formative part of my rugby psyche. To learn he’s (allegedly) a proper wrong un is tough. An old teacher of mine was at Heriot’s with Andy Irvine and told me he was an absolute ar...

Hopefully he is better than his participations stats (one sub appearance this year) in super rugby suggest.

So Glasgow is 12 points from Bulls and Lions away plus Zebre at home. Not impossible but tbh I don’t think they’ll do it. As to who makes the playoffs from 5th to 9th, it’s a tougher guess to make. Edinburgh are home to Zebre, home to Munster and away to Benetton. I would guess at 6 to 8 points from...

Glasgow Team up for Zebre Strong backline - but the pack is very much not the first team - but a good few of the pack could do with a rest. Great to see Grant Stewart back and straight onto the bench - and that's a pretty strong bench to bring on. Glasgow really need a 5 pointer here Stafford start...

Embra to play Cardiff Shoemann, Ashman, Nel, Skinner, Gilchrist (C), Ritchie, Watson, Crosbie Price, Healy, vdM, Lang, Currie, Boff, Goosen Cherry, Venter, Sebastian, Sykes, Mata, Vellacott, Bennett, Dean Great to see Boff back, looks a strong team. A win definitely required if we're to make the to...

There was one more piece of player news today; Fraser Brown has retired. Terrific player, it's never good when a player retires due to injury rather than of his own decision. He is going into coaching, I believe. It's good that his experience stays in the game Yeah, he’s already coaching at watsoni...

There were rumours kicking around earlier in the year that he was keen on going to France. I expect that’s where he’ll end up. Great news on Bradbury signing for Edinburgh. I hope he’s learned to use his size during his brief English sojourn. There was one more piece of player news today; Fraser Bro...

So did we, but she decided she wanted a dinner party then sleepover for her birthday …. 2 sets of the other parents have been sending photos of themselves in the pub, the pricks :lol: I don't want to sound like, well whatever this sounds like, but cherish this, all of a sudden they will be finished...

I said this a few weeks ago when we were in the same position, I really hope the final table is as it is now. 2 Irish, 2 Scottish, 2 South African an Italian and a Welsh team into the playoffs. Perfect for keeping everyone interested in the league going into the playoffs and great to see at least on...

I don’t want to worry anyone but Duhan has kicked TWICE in this game, one of which was a chip over the top which he regathered and scored (unfortunately chopped off for a knockon).

If he starts passing too I think the apocalypse might be coming.

Watching it on Viaplay somehow. It’s either this or try and calm down a 6 year olds first sleepover party. It’s close, but staying with the rugby for a bit I have a 5 year old. I thought I had a few years before sleepovers :eek: So did we, but she decided she wanted a dinner party then sleepover fo...

Anyone else have Premier Sports defaulting to the fucking Celtic game? Every time I try and stream it shows the footie. Driving me nuts Someone was saying similar for a game earlier today on the weedgie board. :shock: To be honest Slick, you're better :shock: :shock: off not being able to see this,...

That Lions result is a proper pain in the arse for Edinburgh.
