Re: Official United Rugby Championship thread
Well done Lions, but...
Glasgow were playing against fourteen for over half the game and 13 for ten minutes and they were the ones who looked exhausted and clueless. I don't think I've seen them play worse than that.
Dreadful.

Re: The Official Scottish Rugby Thread
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 assured of the playoffs. It was stupid. That assumes it would have stayed at the same score if Healy had converted the penalty. I back the team to go for the wi...

No O'Mahonycheatingcunt makes it a different game. And yet Edinburgh would kill to have O'Mahonycheatingcunt playing for them tonight 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.

I agree and disagree, Blair playing at ten made us very creative, it got Mark Bennett back into the Scotland squad, he's a very good fullback as we are seeing with Toulouse, but I don't think it's down to the players.
