Holmes now doing his best Garbajosa impression: just waves de Allende through. :thumbdown:

De Allende proving very hard to handle so far.

These missed kicks might come back to bite.

Not only that but the player released, Stander grabbed it, then just held it into the player on the floor. Then lost it to Dupont. Refs need to remember that "holding on" requires the player on the floor to actually be holding on to the ball.

Always been a total flake. Had a season and a half where he got his sh*t together, finally, but past it now. Ramos is injured.

Medard is the perfect example of a very good player who should have retired 1 year ago.

Not the depth they used to have and having both Ramos and Guitoune out is hurting here. Even Huget would have helped in allowing Kolbe to FB and boot Medard into retirement.

It's Barnes. Would not have mattered if dropped, double movement or knock on: it would have been "bien pour moi".

Earls should have had a yellow at minimum for that one. Ridiculously dangerous.

You know things are screwed when Irish commentators are calling yellow like the Murray one in the 1st half. Barnes should retire and take Medard on holiday.

It's a good contest but much lower quality than I'd expected. Second half has improved at least.

Having to watch it with no sound probably affects my enjoyment of it.

That was pretty special from Lebel in such a tight space.

Yeah, looked like he knocked it into his own head. Still, nice to see a decision go against Munster occasionally.

Do I need to spell out the tongue in cheek posting?

Well done Toulouse. Far too much for us and blew us away in the end.

Not at all. I was explaining why I wasn't really enjoying it, as that was the point of your tongue in cheek post...

Well done Newcastle, beat the mighty Ospreys away
