Leinster Vs Munster buildup

c.p.w.g.w

Lowe did the exact same thing to Earls earlier with a high ball, but ref never saw it

A certain try? As a true blue even I don't think so.

Not gonna give it back all the same!

That's a bit harsh. I was gearing up for arguing Earls brought it back over and a scrum V.

He's hit him before the ball and pushed him out of the line of the ball.

It's a matter of milliseconds, but you can't touch the player without the ball.

There's nothing about 'certain' in the laws.

Poor game so far. Terrible kicking from hand. Lowe stand out so far.

Yellow correct. Penalty try quite harsh I thought.

If Lowe catches that ball it's a certain try.

Earls tackling him early gave him no chance of catching it by hitting him early.

Not really a difficult concept to understand.

Some man. I like African game, but I don't think I could manage a whole giraffe...

ScrubsfanChris

Great tackling :rolleyes:

corny

POM was cheating like mad in the sequence. It was actually funny.

leakyboots

Sit down Leavy! Goggin demolished him there

Squidgy Black

Rob's not up to scratch at all today yet.

Did Lowe definitely ground that?

Wondered that too, one of the replays made it look dodgy

Faugheen

How much longer do we have to pretend that Ruddock isn't at POM's level?

He's everywhere so far and POM is asleep.

Munster 9 almost caught napping with that ball back from the maul!

leakyboots

Great maulage!

Think he dropped it in the act of dropping it down, kinda like BOD try from years ago.

Buer

Good patience and control from Munster. Disappointed it wasn't called to use at any point though.

Squidgy Black

Well worked but the maul was definitely stopped a couple of times

Faugheen

Conor Morris describing Beirne as a 'scourge' of Leinster.

Has he been? He was anonymous in both significant games last season.

Nothing certain about it at all, that's the only certainty here, which is something you fail to grasp

For Scarlets yeah, for Munster the only time you'd remember he was playing was when you spotted the scrumcap.

If he catches the ball he's in.

Earls didn't let him catch the ball by hitting him early.

Penalty try all day, every day.

Thankfully since the law states probable try certainty is irrelevant

A penalty try is awarded between the goal posts if foul play by the opposing team prevents a probable try from being scored, or scored in a more advantageous position. A player guilty of this must be cautioned and temporarily suspended or sent off. No conversion is attempted.

No arms from Lowe?

Right arm clearly wrapped

Great stuff, forwards starting to get the upper hand

razorblunt

SOB will have some shoulders tomorrow from all the flailing he’s doing at the ref.

leakyboots

Yuss! Gwan CJ!

Faugheen

Arnold went shoulder first into Lowe's back there.

Amazed that wasn't picked up

Buer

Oh it's feisty.

Surely no need to check?

ScrubsfanChris

Its getting spicy

leakyboots

Tackle around the neck too

Squidgy Black

I guess you could say there's some real pashun being shown

budhabob

Goggin making inroads Everytime he gets the ball, having a great game

Buer

TMO angling for a knock on. B.S. call if so.

razorblunt

Byrne is on the neck lads. Try or penalty try.

Squidgy Black

Ah cmon give it, that's bullshít even questioning it

leakyboots

Cracking match so far

Faugheen

Ross Byrne unlucky not to stop that.

Very lucky the high tackle wasn't looked at though.
