How TF is that a red card?

Following on from the earlier discussion, another example of total inconsistencies in officiating.

Well given Dayglo's famously excellent investment history; maybe he has shares in Slade Inc ?

Not the destruction I expected but definitely not a good game by Jordan and Hooker. Too many mistakes. Toulouse will be wondering if they would be able to beat a full strength Sharks. Thought Klinghorn was superb. Du Pont was meh but still better than Jayden. Well I guess we are out of the Championship Cup. Hopefully Eben can grace the Sharks with a match or 2. Now we can focus on the URC

Toulouse really could not handle the humidity.

Sharks are D2 level

That's not our full side whereas Toulouse had their full team. By the same token South Africans struggle with the cold so no excuses. If you consider the likes of Eben, Grant, Andre Esterhuizen, Fassi missing that's a lot of class. And I am not saying they would have won but it would have made a huge difference. But that's the way the cookie crumbles.

Toulouse would murder a full strength Sharks in European playing conditions.

thats twice now Freeman show his lack of top end winger pace, 2 tries a winger with pace would have scored, he ended up cutting inside.

We had our weakest team for home and you couldn't " murder " us . With a full strength team. I think you believe far too much in the hype

You spent 3/4 game camped in your own 22. The only thing stopping a cricket score were a generous Pearce and ST's poor handling in the humidity.

That's almost a YC offense by George with the hand on the ground

[Edit] And well done to the Ref & team for picking it up !

Try should be struck off for the repulsive mullet Stade 5 is sporting, but that was a bad error from Hutchinson. Saints' turn to be :oops:

Ridiculous penalty that. Stade defenders made no attempt to roll clear.

A half of two quarters. Saints dominated the first 20 and Stade the second.

Stade don't really offer much apart from a bit of bosh but somehow they're right back in it. This is a Saints 2nd/3rd team mind, I reckon a first choice 15 would have been out of sight by now.

If Saints keep the pace high, they should move away from Stade

Not exactly a Paris 1st team either. Both Paris clubs are a total shambles at the moment though.
