HH, did you know a guy called Micky Ireland when you were at the club?

I think you've asked me this before, but no, not off hand, but then I did leave when I was 18 and have an appalling memory for names.

Nah, they've been missing for a while. Walking ad for gumshields that lad.

Ah the old "lose one, lose them all" brand

Ah, shame - was thinking he was wearing his big boy pants, doing an interview after losing teeth. That’d have been impressive.

WTF is it with these baby sh*t coloured shirts? First Quins and now Opsreys.

Doesn't suppose (m)any are watching the Dragons but Sam bloody Davies.

A penalty kicked dead and a kick off out on the full in the first 15 minutes and a penalty conceded for offside.

I'll raise you with Russell's 5 unforced errors resulting in turnovers in 20 mins.

{EDIT}which ultimately results in conceding a try.

Yes but Davies is Welsh so the bar is higher.

Good game of rugby in Connacht

Lovely hands by Aki to bamboozle the Tigers defenders

Seriously, it's like this every game for Racing. They are offing Thomas and Baubigny to stay within the cap. Should have dumped Russell. Gibert is a perfectly good option for Racing who plays the situation and game in front of him rather than random, slapstick stuff.

Excellent start to the 2nd half by Connacht, YC for Tigers, & immediately get the try

21 - 10

Second in 2 games for Reffel.

Enjoying Connacht sticking it to Tigers.

If Leicester sorted out their discipline they'd be a lot closer

Ref frames question in way try can't be given but there's no way that was not grounded.

Very often and then he'll have the odd excellent game.

Give me a break. Smith is virtually sleeping on Fickou there

Seems like a matter of time until Leicester score now

Commentary team on Connacht vs tigers trying very hard to pretend that tigers haven't rested both 1st choice half backs it really isn't that surprising that tigers have lacked control as the step down is significant.

Posted: **Sat Jan 15, 2022 4:53 pm**

And they will keep Russell and get rid off Thomas

They’ve also cocked up so many opportunities, but a good chance they’ll take this one now I think

Yeah, they've spannered up so many chances. Van poortvliet has added some tempo to Tigers play.

Russell kicks the ball dead from there, costing the chance of the BP. W*nk*r.

Posted: **Sat Jan 15, 2022 5:01 pm**

Fuck me thats dire from Russell, 2 penalties in a row, 2 kicked dead, rubbish.

Posted: **Sat Jan 15, 2022 5:01 pm**

Feels like Tigers are going to sneak this.

Posted: **Sat Jan 15, 2022 5:03 pm**

Just watching the Wasps game now. 20 minutes in, a Toulouse player kicks the ball back across the dead ball line whilst lying on the floor. The ref says it's all part of the motion, but the replay clearly shows he falls to the ground when trying to get it in his arms, and whilst on the ground, then lashes out with a foot. That's a penalty try and yellow card surely.

Posted: **Sat Jan 15, 2022 5:05 pm**

Sh*te reffing. Clear pen to Connacht at the ruck before the try.

Posted: **Sat Jan 15, 2022 5:05 pm**

Hell of a try. Hell of a game. No idea why the crowd are booing and this carry on from the players is so poor, it was clearly a try.

Connacht tried to kill the game from 60 mins and let Leicester run at them, probably the inevitable outcome

Posted: **Sat Jan 15, 2022 5:06 pm**

Yeah, get fucked Connacht - shut the fuck up and take the loss. Literally nothing to boo about.

Bundee Aki mouthing off to the ref after the whistle. Honestly, just fuck off.

Come on Torq, they clearly thought it was in touch, nothing to do with a marginal breakdown call. The crowd were jubilant because they thought he was in touch even though the foot was about 8 inches off the ground at the point of the replay they started cheering

I thought that, but it passed by with so little incident I thought I'd remembered the law wrong.
