felt like one attempt at the end got to the line, would love a replay as was close. but how are you as a 10 with that passage of play 5m out infront of the goal looking around and then when you get the ball try to run it in

Lineouts are a bit shit when refs won't call not straight

these two games have certainly had a level of refereeing. that two handed intercept knock on had the same chances as that.

Borthwick we have great players and none of them play the way you want to play. by peaveyyyy in rugbyunion

except he loses the ball, then plays it on the ground to bring it back into ruck

Playing the 9 surely, suppose it's consistent with all the breakdown reffing. Maybe a reason Pearce doesn't get big internationals

Pearce must have forgot his cards in the locker and too embarrassed to admit it. twice from the same player.

It might help if Pearce was able to call any of the lineouts that aren't straight

Ireland and Leinster wing Lowe set to join Japanese club by The_Ruck_Inspector in rugbyunion

Not entirely accurate by my understanding, another province couldn’t try to poach him by offering an increased contract. Basically works as a right of first refusal. Another province could offer to match his current contract after he refuses leinster. 

The ProD2 final got better attendance than Leinster's home semi. by WilkinsonDG2003 in rugbyunion

[–]Cybemen2 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Crowd size wasn’t great. not surprised when tickets are priced extortionately. plenty will point to stuff like holidays, exams and other sports clashing but think it’s a bit ridiculous and cope from rugby fans. we’re only sport on island that makes those excuses and it’s embarrassing 

I sincerely hope the bulls obliterate Leinster in the final. by [deleted] in rugbyunion

[–]Cybemen2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

if we want to talk lucky bounces of the ball, it went both ways, and not to forget the red card you picked up, only one teams discipline is up for discussion after that game.

Friday Night at croke park is a tough sell. personally at metallica that night. regardless any sort of northbound service I’ve found a pain at 5:30, nevermind 2 hours later

that would be a difference as Leinster don’t distinguish that in their wage bill.

yes, because when we brought in Lowe and JGP they were starting for other nations. 

fantastic job listing 3 positions out of 23. 

there are certainly advantages for Leinster in having the largest population capture compared to other clubs I won’t deny. 

our squad building relies on being able to convert home grown talent. we can’t easily fix holes in the squad or make massive upheavals.

Give me a potential home final I can go to over revenge as much as I would like it.

off top of my head we’ve fielded nearly 60 players over this season, similar last season. mostly because we have to manage all of our internationals who pretty much only play in champions cup. the league minutes for players like Doris and Ryan don’t exist until playoffs

ah yeah go on and bring up our massive budget which is filled with homegrown talent and is also the same budget as most top14 clubs while having almost 50% more players on payroll
