No, they did that on their own. Had Young just gone for it he'd most likely have scored under the posts with momentum, then there was the van der Walt charge down. 9 point left on the pitch in a 4 point match.
Now you see why the "Salary Cap" for Leinster is a sack of shit.
One of them needs to be forced out of Leinster. It's just too damn comfortable being 2nd/3rd in line; & not having to do anything to justify their salary.Jim Lahey wrote: ↑Sat Jan 29, 2022 10:51 pm Fair dues to Cardiff, great performance from them. Thought their pack were excellent as well as the half backs. What's the story with Lane? He seemed to mix the brilliant with the idiotic tonight.
Given they were missing their starting pack, and probably half of their 2nds, it wasn't surprising to see Leinster taking a bit of a beating up front.
Ross Byrne kicked his goals well but just doesn't offer much else. He was running through treacle trying to cornerflag Lane for his try.
Harry Byrne looks barely servicible at URC level any time I've seen him this season. At some point he needs to shit or get off the pot given the amount of hype surrounding him.
Probably a good reality check for the likes of Penny, Ruddock, McGrath and Frawley who are used to being part of sides that steamroll teams in this competition.
Poor decision making and execution. 5 missed kicks, not committing enough players to the rucks, defensive organization bad.
Marius is always referring against WP. Just prior to that he completely ignored Kittsy eating dirt on his belly and penalized the Sharks rather afterwards. That led to the events that unfolded. It's easy to see only what you want to see

Just prior to all the Sharks penalties and cards Sharks were in a commanding position at a scrum. Stormers were getting their arses handed to them. Scrum goes down by Kitshoff on the side opposite ref. Kitshoff is chewing grass....scrum continues. In a mess....Marius penalized Sharks.....from there penalty after penalty and 2 cards and 2 penalty tries

There were no single area of measurement where the saaks were weaker than the Stormers, yet they still lost.
The point is we should never have got to that point if Marius hadn't vokked us over in the scrum penalty. Kitshoff is not that small that you can miss him lying flat on his bellyhandyman wrote: ↑Mon Jan 31, 2022 6:23 amWhich of the cards were unfair boet?Sards wrote: ↑Mon Jan 31, 2022 6:19 amJust prior to all the Sharks penalties and cards Sharks were in a commanding position at a scrum.

So you lost the match because in your opinion 1 scrum penalty went the wrong way?Sards wrote: ↑Mon Jan 31, 2022 6:36 amThe point is we should never have got to that point if Marius hadn't vokked us over in the scrum penalty.

It would be damn interesting to see the $harks pack scrum against the Stomps pack without my Grandmother @3 for the Stomps.
Perhaps we need to look at the quality of the Stormers' locks. Maybe their props weren't getting enough power from behind.
