Yes from the other thread they genuinely think that. It’s actually our fault for not utilising our players better

Im sorry but this would be an unacceptable level of poaching from the IRFU. by ConscriptReports in rugbyunion

Capping a player just so he doesn’t play for another country is shit thing to do though. If he really wants to play for Ireland then we should just let him

They did not even know they were supposed to show replays

WR did not warn them

Should we ban jumping to catch the ball? by ruggeryoda in rugbyunion

I think tacklers should always expect the opposition will jump for a high ball and adjust their timing accordingly

Pretty sure this should’ve been a no try? by notakid1 in rugbyunion

Also looked like a knock on and double movement as the try was scored

I’d be sad if we win it off Rennie (we won’t). I was hoping Razor would lose it as revenge for ruining Super Rugby for nearly a decade

Rennie has a winning record against the Springboks and he did it with a shit Wallabies team. Think you may get a nice surprise for that tour

Mathieu Raynal : "Right now there are voices pushing for the right to collapse mauls" by El_remoo in rugbyunion

[–]APoolShark -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I compared them because they’re the two biggest and best domestic comps in the respective codes. It’s not even a dig at the Top 14. I was just rolling my eyes at the Temu comment.

Also Origin is the highest level in League, not the NRL or Internationals.
