Detournement Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 I didn't notice at the time but apparently when Cian Healy did his dive through the ruck he completey destroyed Jefferson Poirot's knee with his shoulder. Obviously not getting cited though because he's Irish. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did though play rugby for other schools because our school didn't have a rugby team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know a guy who played front row with him at school and got that impression. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaggy Snake Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 (edited) The starting line up doesn't look too bad considering the number of injuries we have. Relieved to see that Maitland is back and playing at fullback, and that Sam Johnson is back in ahead of Horne. Jonny Gray can have no complaints about being dropped to the bench but Toolis offers nothing. Skinner & Watson starting is great but I can't understand why we've dropped Strauss (who's been decent) for Bradbury (who's been largely annoymous). We're going to get hammered anyway...

honestly united Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Would probably have preferred Strauss at 8, shift Bradbury to blind side and Skinner to 2nd row dropping Toolis, but much of a muchness. Ideally Ireland beat wales denying them a grandslam, then we beat england denying them the title. But unlikely to happy - and on 2nd thoughts that would give Ireland the title so that wouldn't do. If wales win though the pressure is off England and they may run riot 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was injured, but came back a few weeks ago for Toulouse, probably letting him concentrate on getting back in with his club after a lengthy absence, and having not been in the squad for about 2 years probably would struggle with calls, moves, game plan etc in a short space of time. But I would have had him called up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
same_ol_g35 Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 Tuning in to see the Scotland under 20s. It's slightly unusual seeing a Redpath playing against Scotland as she I grew up I was so used to seeing his dad play for us. But I understand his choice growing up down south, probably never a doubt for him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
same_ol_g35 Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 7-0 Scotland! Great interception for the try. And Redpath might not be playing for Scotland but he set up our try! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngusTheBull Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 Scotland seem to have been living rent free in the entire English teams head for the past year which is nice 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
