I hope Kinghorne uses his time at Toulouse to improve his try scoring dives. He’s a tall man, but it’s not acceptable

But the try they did score looked to me like the whole defensive line was off side, but no TMO intervention- I doubt it was even considered

Breather boy really failed Luke Crosbie, imo. You could see the Italian player's head fly back int he collision and Crosbie went off for an HIA.

He’s what’s know as a “stand off”

Didn't the ref take the decision to the TMO as no try? Was driving with commentary on my phone, was there enough evidence to overturn?

Posted: **Fri Nov 24, 2023 8:35 pm**

I missed the start of the Darcy punditry, did he say when he's due back?

I thought the ref was saying there was enough downward pressure for her but the TMO was banging on about losing control

Posted: **Fri Nov 24, 2023 8:47 pm**

Seven minutes of really poor, error strewn play and we are under pressure now

Posted: **Fri Nov 24, 2023 8:53 pm**

He didn't last long, about five seconds

Irony of a Saffer ref pinging someone not rolling away at the back of a ruck

Posted: **Fri Nov 24, 2023 9:01 pm**

So bloody slow at the back of rucks ffs

Posted: **Fri Nov 24, 2023 9:09 pm**

Oh Blair!

Posted: **Fri Nov 24, 2023 9:09 pm**

That might be the worst minute of play I have ever seen

Posted: **Fri Nov 24, 2023 9:10 pm**

Ridiculous try to give away.

No one taking responsibility. Duhan makes a bollocks of it, Healy just has to kick that rather than dump it off to an isolated prop. Then Kinghorn does that.

Utter shambles.

In the same way that losing pinky in a heavy gate shutting is hilarious

He's in from the front foot never mind the back foot.

You could go and make a cup of tea come back and Vellacott still won't have played the ball.

Posted: **Fri Nov 24, 2023 9:18 pm**

Nice to see Healy using the Slick Trick, as they used to call it

Yeah, don’t understand it at all

Posted: **Fri Nov 24, 2023 9:20 pm**

Men standing still, not running on to the ball and moving sideways and passing on to static players. Basics are missing.

Posted: **Fri Nov 24, 2023 9:20 pm**

that's red, right?

Posted: **Fri Nov 24, 2023 9:21 pm**

Pretty reddy to me

Posted: **Fri Nov 24, 2023 9:21 pm**

It's a 18-19 stone player high and moving into the tackle. Clear a red as you'll get.

Posted: **Fri Nov 24, 2023 9:21 pm**

That is the second one from them tonight

Posted: **Fri Nov 24, 2023 9:23 pm**

oh fuck the fuck off, you've let squint throws go all night and then pull Edinburgh for that?

Posted: **Fri Nov 24, 2023 9:26 pm**

What the fuck was that from Benetton

Posted: **Fri Nov 24, 2023 9:26 pm**

Come on, another dg win please

Shambolic second half.

Gifted a conference rival 4 points.

He was terrible. Not thr only one but still.

Posted: **Fri Nov 24, 2023 9:30 pm**

Vellacot doing his best to dispel any conspiracy theories about Price arriving

Ritchie showed throughout the game why he is Scotlands 6 and why he shouldn’t be captain

Posted: **Fri Nov 24, 2023 9:31 pm**

Edinburgh got everything they deserved from that second half performance, in fact the only thing they didn’t deserve was the losing bonus point. It’s as if someone flicks a switch and the entire team goes into headless chicken mode at the same time !

No idea why he was chirping in when Healy was asking GG what to do at the end.

Fucked off now. Decent start to the season and now they blow it at home against a mid-table side.

Yep. Same old Edinburgh. Headless chickens. Error on error and coughed the game up. The leadership on the pitch is continuously awful.

No idea who has decided that Ryan Wilson is someone the rugby public want to hear from.

I think he's a breath of fresh air. Paterson is like an automaton trotting out the same old pish about lessons and faux positivity. Wilson and Barcs are great.
