I think he took a bang when he fell off Stockdale and never shook it off - could be wrong though

Whatever about wanting a change to the law, the eir pundits seemingly thinking that the ref should severely punish Henshaw when he hasn't actually done anything wrong is ridiculous.
Re: Leinster v. Ulster, Rainbow Cup, Fri 14 May, 20.15hrs
Possession and territory don’t make for great reading from our perspective. Just 30% possession and 28% territory. The plus is that we are somehow level and could have been ahead only for an illegal turnover at the end of the half.
We need to find a way to get our hands on the ball and not concede stupid turnovers. We’ve looked decent in the very little of the ball that we have had.

Very true, but surely they have to apply the law when there is a challenge where you call them out to check out the offense?

Don't think we could have challenged it.
Look out Itchy, he's Irish

No specific case per se just.....much of his careerLeRouxIsPHat wrote: ↑May 14th, 2021, 9:14 pmYes but if you're thinking of when JOB passed to him then I thought JOB butchered it and he had no choice.
His stepping is a huge asset so it’s a bit like saying ROG kicked too much but he so often turns into trouble or goes lateral.

Or maybe the coaches watched his Senior Cup highlights and finally realised he’s the best kicker in the squad.Laighin Break wrote: ↑May 14th, 2021, 9:13 pm Didn't notice it but apparently Ringrose kicked the conversion(?) Byrne obviously not 100%
Re: Leinster v. Ulster, Rainbow Cup, Fri 14 May, 20.15hrs
So we’ve about a 50% of an out half then ?? And actually Henshaw has been at first receiver a lot too , so maybe 40% ?
Re: Leinster v. Ulster, Rainbow Cup, Fri 14 May, 20.15hrs
I'm pretty sure there's a section in the laws about it. It specifically refers to "any tackle where a commentator feels like it's a bad example for kids who might try to copy the player in an under 16s match the following weekend". I'm surprised you haven't noticed that law.LeRouxIsPHat wrote: ↑May 14th, 2021, 9:15 pm Whatever about wanting a change to the law, the eir pundits seemingly thinking that the ref should severely punish Henshaw when he hasn't actually done anything wrong is ridiculous.

Re: Leinster v. Ulster, Rainbow Cup, Fri 14 May, 20.15hrs
Yeah, similar to when Munster tried to challenge at the very end of the game against us — the ref told them they couldn’t challenge it because it wasn’t a decision. Haven’t read the actual laws around the captains challenge so not sure precisely what that means.

I thought JOB was just taking them as it made sense for a left footer with a big boot to kick on that side, close to the line. But McGrath threw a few passes to Ringrose for clearance kicks early on, now that I think of it.

Ringrose doing his best Isa impression, he's doing everything and he's been brilliant.
Re: Leinster v. Ulster, Rainbow Cup, Fri 14 May, 20.15hrs
we've been garbage with the ball tonight
Look out Itchy, he's Irish
Re: Leinster v. Ulster, Rainbow Cup, Fri 14 May, 20.15hrs
We have been terrible tonight. Very disappointing so far, especially seeing more of the same in the second half. Ulster looking like the team energised by the half time talk.

Our own unforced errors are killing us. Ulster would be further ahead if they were more composed when opportunities arose
And now they’re not ahead at all!
