European Cup Semi-Final: Away to La Rochelle, Sunday 2nd of May 3pm

[wixfjord]

Massive trouble here. We can't get out of our half.

[Leinsterimp]

Missing Ruddocks physicality big time

[wixfjord]

Get Fardy on please.

[IanD]

Why are we still trying to run through them?

Kick to touch and put pressure on their line out - we have turned over a few all ready.

[wixfjord]

Porter pillar defence there really poor. JVDF caught in a ruck and he was way too wide. Opened the corridor for them to go over.

Game over I reckon.

[Avenger]

Will take some effort to turn this around.

[Twist]

There’s no way you can see us scoring 10 points here

That missed early pen is looking costly now

[neiliog93]

Conversion should be scratched as he took way longer than the permitted time.

[neiliog93]

I'll take a cheap kickable penalty shortly after kick-off here, thanks...

[Twist]

Ah here, he’s giving them pens for looking at the ball now

[Dave Cahill]

Ruddock going off has really hurt our breakdown

[Avenger]

We’re done here I reckon. Nowhere near good enough second half.

[wixfjord]

Baird's clear out work is just not good enough at a high level. Happens so much to him.

[neiliog93]

How was that a penalty? Their 14 got in a legitimate poaching position, but was immediately cleared out...

[FLIP]

Ah here, he’s giving them pens for looking at the ball now

Clown car refereeing is par for the course these days.

[wixfjord]

Game over, not good enough at all. Besides first 20 we've looked clueless. McGrath not able to play a game of this magnitude, Ross has reverted to his 'stand and deliver' and their defence is suffocating us. Baird looking troubled by the physicality too.

Very dissapointing.

[Theleinsterlad]

We are being beaten by better side today end of

[blockhead]

Yep. Rochelle deserve this. We didn't turn up at all.

[Twist]

We’ve been shocking

[Avenger]

Better team is winning. Entire second half has been in our 22
