I'm sure many leinster fans will hatewank themselves dry over it

They don't (finishes 17-40) so they don't need to get the jack out yet

Ulster would appear to have finally caught a break. MHR have had a red card and currently have two more in the bin! Ulster lead 17-26 with 10 to go. If they lose this they may as well pack in the rugby and take up crown green bowling

God rugby has some really stupid rules. France score a try with a second on the clock and opt to skip the conversion and take the restart but because it wasn’t the captain who told the referee they wanted the restart it wasn’t allowed - the captain couldn’t tell the referee because he was on the gr...

Yeah, its a good watch alright!

In fairness, all four props are giving a masterclass in acting the maggot.

Like the majestic Giraffe, there is no sight more enthralling than a second row at full gallop

A Jalibert-less Bordeaux went through a Farrell-less Saracens for a shortcut,

If anyone knows how to stop Bielle-Biarry or Penaud, put your answers on the back of the postage stamp they can step you in

Snyman (illness) and Shane Daly (unspecified ouchie) out for Munster, O'Brien and Aherne in. Shane McCarthy and JOD to the bench

It's Mr Tickle actually.

Get the excuses in early lads, just in case.

It is entirely impossible to predict a Manie Libbok kick, any part of the pitch, any distance, any conditions, any time of the match, he is equally likely to pop it over or push it a mile wide.

Manny Libbock does what Manny Libbock does, and La Rochelle go through

I see Glasgow’s online fans are whinging about the referee again. Is it may imagination or is this the default reaction for Scottish teams now? Including the national team, I mean They’re approaching Saffer levels of paranoia and bad sportsmanship Its not just them Glasgow getting whistled off the ...
