    This performance is seriously risking a home final bull's are only 9 behind us and we ain't getting anything next week.

    In the 5 odd years Mcbryde hasnt been able to help develop a remotely good scrummager, unless porter and furlong start leinster literally hemorage a penalty at every single scrum, Mcbryde has stolen a living by luckily having a starting irish xv to cover up the cracks of his non existing coaching

    Foley replacing Andrew Osborne. They know they'll have to pull Ngatai off early, so they have to keep Brownlee back.



  • Registered Users Posts: 17,169 ✭✭✭✭Clegg


    Better from Leinster but needed to go wide.



  • Registered Users Posts: 2,012 ✭✭✭SaoPaulo41


    This is a truely terrible display. We could blow the league big time here.

    Luke Mcgraths passing is below AIL, below SCT standard, Fintan Gunne should really be getting this gametime, mcgraths regressing

    Jesus Christ why can Luke McGrath not make a simple pass accurately?

    He was never a good passer but he’s somehow deteriorated in recent years further.



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,268 ✭✭✭Thrashssacre


    He's the only Leinster player out there playing well, deserves a 6 month deal until Barrett arrives from what I'm seeing.



  • Registered Users Posts: 42 lonester99


    Both leinster phases of attacke have been killed by mcgrath throwing the ball on the ground



  • Registered Users Posts: 17,169 ✭✭✭✭Clegg


    We've made a mess of some very good attacking opportunities. Need to get some points on the board.

    Not enough penetration up close and not helped by McGrath's awful passing.

    how TF does this take 12 viewings?! An absolutely obvious and clear try.



  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 35,460 Mod ✭✭✭✭pickarooney


    No strength in those carries, Leinster tiring themselves out for no gain.

    Can't be easy out there.

    Looking for ever reason not to give that

    Ffs



  • Registered Users Posts: 17,169 ✭✭✭✭Clegg


    Ngatai and Turner were decent.

    That's about it for the half.



  • Registered Users Posts: 11,635 ✭✭✭✭Burkie1203


    Wtf?



  • Registered Users Posts: 17,169 ✭✭✭✭Clegg


    That's a try.



  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    that’s a **** disgrace of a decision.

    Stupid call from the ref on the field but one of the most obvious tries I’ve ever seen ruled out by utterly moronic refereeing.



  • Registered Users Posts: 17,169 ✭✭✭✭Clegg


    Lol.

    We've actually been robbed.



  • Registered Users Posts: 4,218 ✭✭✭A-Train


    What a shocking call. Terrible



  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 8,121 ✭✭✭fitz


    The very definition of a hometown decision that.

    The ball only needs to touch the line…that's an absolutely disgraceful decision.



  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 35,460 Mod ✭✭✭✭pickarooney


    There's some weird light on the pitch as if they had floodlights on during the day. Hard to see anything.



  • Registered Users Posts: 3,353 ✭✭✭KaneToad


    Ludicrous decision there. Ref called it wrong on field and then TMO bizarre thinking it wasn't grounded on the line.

    Very, very poor. It won't be the winning/losing of the game but it's not a good look for the officials.



  • Registered Users Posts: 24,069 ✭✭✭✭Larbre34


    Terrible stuff.

    But it goes back to the framing of the TMO role and the failure of World Rugby to have it serve the good of the game.

    There should only be a single question allowed from a Ref to a TMO for a scoring decision.

    "What do you see?"

    And then all options remain on.



  • Registered Users Posts: 893 ✭✭✭JPCN1


    awful decision. Poor reffing from tmo and ref.



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,750 ✭✭✭Eoinbmw




  • Registered Users Posts: 1,531 ✭✭✭RichieRich_89


    Turner looked short to me.

    Hope they put Foley at scrumhalf and McGrath on the wing in the second half.

    WTF is going on with the guy shouting over the tannoy while Leinster trying to feed the scrum? Between that and the incredibly irritating music during every break in play, allied with the very poor Leinster performance and bad refereeing, it’s been far from an enjoyable half.

    How many penalties now have they conceded in their 22?!
