Re: Sharks v Leinster Sat 5.15pm TG4
We're definitely up against it in these games no matter how well we play. It's probably just human nature, but having watched the majority of the away games in South Africa, the home decisions have been blatant, especially from the TMOs.
Re: Sharks v Leinster Sat 5.15pm TG4
Some of them have been pretty wonky, and Ulster were robbed outright.
One thing I am looking forward to is the South African commentators though. Best in the game.
Re: Sharks v Leinster Sat 5.15pm TG4
The Georgian ref has been good from what I've seen recently. TMO Jonkers should be ok no?
Re: Sharks v Leinster Sat 5.15pm TG4
Don’t know much about Jonker apart from his role as TMO for the South Africa “A” game vs the B&I Lions. There was controversy over him not pushing for a red for Faf de Clerk after some head contact on Navidi, but I actually thought he got that one right.
I’m sure he’ll be fine, it’s not really about anyone in particular, just that home decisions seem too disproportionately favour the home sides. We probably got the rub of the green when they came here.

Does anybody know if any Leinster supporters travelled for this game, either with the Official party or independently?

Currently chilling in KwaZulu Natal. Hoping we won't be the only 3 Leinster fans in kings park

You know I'm going to lose,
And gambling's for fools,
But that's the way I like it baby, I don't want to live FOREVER!

Pretty meaty back and lots of pace in backline.
The second row Le Roux Roets is 138kg and 6'8. Should be a fair old scrum and maul battle for our second row duo!
Also how the feck is Ben Tapuai still playing!

Yeesh, we'll be doing well to get a LBP here I fear! Big baptism of fire for McKee & Deeny.
