I wonder will Leinster do something similar?

Anything other than a sell out will be lost in that stadium.
In case anyone else was wondering
Other restart kicks (drop-outs)
Play is restarted with a 22-metre drop-out when an unsuccessful penalty goal or dropped goal attempt is grounded or made dead in in-goal by the defending team, or the ball goes dead through in-goal from one these attempts.
Play is restarted with a goal line drop-out when:
The ball is played or taken into in-goal by an attacking player and is then held up, grounded or otherwise made legally dead by an opponent.
An attacking kick, other than a kick-off, restart kick following a score, drop goal, drop-out or penalty attempt, is grounded or made dead in in-goal by the defending team.
An attacking player knocks on in the opponents’ in-goal.
WR making things as easy as possible as per usual

Those and missed penalties are now pretty much the only time you get 22 drops now.Tichtheid wrote: Sat Jun 15, 2024 2:15 pm Why was the attempted drop goal a 22 when the kick just before it was a goal line drop out?

Leinster big test coming up now.
Great Bulls defence.
Leinster have lost their spark this year. Nienaber hasn't added anything, and the commitment to Ross at 10 is epitomising the 'solid but average' approach.
Another year of regrets.
Best of luck for the final Bulls.

Over the hills and far away........
Le Roux was really good in that first half. When he was sending cross field kicks and Leinster adapted and pushed up defenders then he switched to kicking deep off his left boot, simple but brilliant. Hit the line and offloaded a few times. He's so good when he's on it.
Loftus DJ needs to be told no Yank or Euro pop, not intimidating at all. Needs to play Leeuloop, that fucking nie van die vloer af nie song, Ge and an accordion, watching your team getting pumped as the crowd are singing boeremeisies rule or some kak. The painful memories associated with those songs will go with me to the grave.

I am still not getting the Leinster hype. In 3 years of watching them they have not won anything.
Maybe they are on a phase between building towards something special and I got them at the wrong time.
Maybe it's Nienabers fault.
But nah. Haven't got me worried

You Stomps......vok but you are bad sports
Newlands can be sold and demolished but the spirit of Boo-lands lives on inside their hearts.
Are you stupid or just stoned? His comment is about a specific moment in the match where…..guess what? The Bulls ARE actually under the pump.

I think you understand less English than Oom does.
