Yup. Going to be another "effort" by MH like the one at Leinster. I really hope these c**ts do not win the T14.

I saw the teamsheet yesterday and thought exactly the same. Basically they've decided to try and defend a 14pt lead with a reserve side but aren't bothered if they go out.
It gets harder to sell this competition as the pinnacle of club rugby when there are clubs that don't even give a shit about it in the knockout stages.

If I did not know better, I'd say he deliberately missed that. :problem:

If Quins stopped thinking they have to wipe out the advantage in 10 mins they would stop their brains turning to mush.

MH maul has 4 players who break away without the ball and for at least 10 secs they don't know they don't have the ball :crazy:

Not quite but that one was partly down to COVID and injuries. This is a straight throw.

Oof. I'm not sure Adamson needs to call the game to a stop there, he might have been in the way, but the Montpol player wouldn't have been able to make a tackle because Care wasn't in possession of the ball and Care was away after that kick through.

For his first game back in about a year, Evans is putting in some performance.

You might be thinking of Jack Willis who sustained a horrible knee injury (very similar to the one Evans sustained while on Quins duty iirc) for England which also kept him out for a year?

Quins speed to their own breakdowns is outstanding, very little risk of being turned over.

Is he ever going to have a word about the number of penalties?

That should be a penalty try. For it to be just a pen and a warning after the sheer number of offences down here is pathetic.

Adamson really is an astonishingly poor ref.

Indeed, he finally gives the yellow at a scrum where if anyone should be penalised it was probably Marler.

Quins really doing their best to screw this up.

I’ve got steam coming out of my ears. Ref is crap but Quins don’t know how to be cynical in return.

Quins totally blew that, lineouts were terrible, both hookers utterly rubbish with their throwing.

Who have Montpellier got next then? With a decent ref and a European class side they will get humped, hopefully.

That was spectacularly shit by Adamson.

Montpellier are extremely dislikeable.

Just seen the score. Either PSA has suddenly become a genius or Quins f**ked up against a side looking to lose without getting pinged for looking to lose.

Does Adamson have any other mode. How TF does anyone justify being in charge of a shopping trolley.

On your last point, that is a massive understatement.

Quins fucked up but it’s laughable what MH had to do this week to get a card vs the disastrous yellow Quins had last week. We don’t exactly deserve to go through and Marcus Smith fluffed a try and a kick but Adamson basically let Montpellier cheat their way to that.

See my previous post. How that clown gets appointments beggars belief. Glad I switched off because bad enough seeing MH succeed when they are trying to win. Pity they don't get Leinster next.

Well, I wouldn’t want to have to cheer Leinster on.

Me to 5 yo “well you’ll just have to cheer Sale in the next round because we’re not in it”
5 yo bursts into tears: “but I don’t want to support Sale”

So that’s cheered me up at least.
