Honestly this game has been fucking dull and the officials have not helped that

Agree with all this, would add this ref is nowhere near good enough to officiate at this level

Appropriate ending. Bristol's passing and decision making has been well below par.

Posted: **Sun Apr 04, 2021 4:02 pm**

Bristol have been totally naive, Bordeaux smart and efficient, Racing will i suspect anihilate them in the quarters.

Posted: **Sun Apr 04, 2021 4:03 pm**

They're not ready for this competition yet.

It's funny, as an armchair fan I don't see what should be so different about it than league rugby, but so many teams new to flying high domestically seem to take a couple of years to settle into the Champions Cup.

Exeter being a prime example.

Ref completely ruined the Bristol game - he had a shocker.

Craig Doyle doing legal damage control while Healy blithely accuses French directors of cheating (not unjustly tbf...) is quite funny.

Posted: **Sun Apr 04, 2021 4:17 pm**

There's zero doubt that the French TV directors are a pack of self-serving cunts.

Not sure about that, last 2 games were Bor 10 / Rac 15 and R 32/ B 33.

Scarlets or Sale? Tough one, home team win for me

Real route 1 stuff from Sale

Try from the angry warthog, used Gareth Davis as a speedbump

Posted: **Sun Apr 04, 2021 4:51 pm**

How did Sale not score that

It continues to be bizarre the difference between their National, & Club performances.

I think Wales needs one less team, & Scotland needs one more.

Bizarre indeed. Ospreys put out pretty much 1/2 the Welsh ntl side and still lost at home to Newcastle. Dragons not expected to beat Saints on recent form but nonetheless, they lost to a side playing a man short for much of the game. And now this. Could be a humiliation.

Ospreys 14-0 after 15 minutes having scored two classy tries and looked like running away with it. I mean no disrespect but all Newcastle had to do to win was be competent, which they were.

37 - 7 to Sale, never saw that coming

And that’s a strong Scarlets team, no injury excuses.

44 - 7 now

To cap the w/e off for them, their women lost 53-0 to France.

In a way so is English rugby. On the basis of this weekend England should be able to beat Wales comfortably even from 14-0 down. It’s an odd game.
