John Lambies Doos Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 He's a No voting Tory dick. Not even being an Arab can save him. He's a complete fukin fanny. Typical servile tit 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 23-20 now with 7 mins to go! Great game, fully supporting Exeter here. Great fightback but ultimately gave Saracens too much of a start. Alex Goode scored late on to seal the win at 28-20. Mystifying how Mike Brown gets picked before him. Itoje is going to be some player. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisMFCfan1886 Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 Connacht looked like they had more desire and wanted it more than Leinster from the start, congratulations to them, worthy champions over the course of the season 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajwffc Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 Connacht looked like they had more desire and wanted it more than Leinster from the start, congratulations to them, worthy champions over the course of the season Leinster were the better team for the 1st 5 min until Connacht got the ball and went from one 22 to the other. After that there was only going to be one winner 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.A.F.C Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 Was at the game today, Connacht had all the support and most of the game. Wish the football cup final was like this. So chilled out and no aggro. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddfg Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 Was at the game today, Connacht had all the support and most of the game. Wish the football cup final was like this. So chilled out and no aggro. We were walking away from the ground being serenaded by a chorus of "Well done to the men in green" . I thought it was a bit daft that Connoacht fans would have left before the trophy presentation but it was a group of about 10 Leinster supporters. Hope this level of civility and sportsmanship doesn't catch on here, bitterness and hate are much better. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diamond_for_life Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 Even the Munster and Ulster fans that we saw were all able to have a laugh and a joke. No bitterness and no fighting. Just fans having a good day out. Would love to see that in other sports 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northsea80 Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 I thought it was a cracking day out. Good mix of fans, obviously a good amount of warriors, Ulster and Munster fans who'd bought tickets in advance hoping for the best, even saw a few bunches of Scarletts fans. Just enjoying the event itself. Some Edinburgh fans also, brass necking it a wee bit in my opinion when they've been nowhere near the playoffs or a final! Also the women who watch rugby are head and shoulders above those that watch football, we'll certainly the ones that watch Celtic! :-( 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eednud Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 State of Origin Game 1 is this Wednesday for those interested. Game is at ANZ Stadium in Sydney with an 11am kick-off Scottish time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Lambies Doos Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 SRU have cut links to London Scottish 4 months after establishing links??? Funding going to a 3rd pro team? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northsea80 Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Seems strange to do that. Younger players won't get enough game time at Glasgow or Edinburgh. Think it's been said before that there isn't enough money in the pot to establish a 3rd team. Also it wouldn't be a given that they'd be granted access to the Pro12. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The london scottish connection would seem to have made sense although its a fully open club these days. Has been few rumours rumbling about the old north n Midlands (or Caledonian reds if you're a moderner) being revived with private money....but after the Edinburgh experiment no sure anyone with cash to invest will trust the sru. It might be possible to squeeze a side into pro12 at the expense of zebre, but it would seem awfully short notice to try and i cant see Italians being too keen. Id think that a young 7s squad plus London Scottish would be all we could realistically afford. Perhaps the sru wanted more control than ls were willing to give?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northsea80 Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 Glasgow sign a Fijian scrum half. I imagine we'll see Grayson Hart move on. I'd rather see him go and Ali Price be given more game time when Pyrgos is away with the national team. Hope Grayson Harts mum isn't reading this! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingscot Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 I suspect SRU were concerned that rather than supplementing a squad at LS they were providing the bulk of players. This means that not enough senior experience as you virtually have a colt team. Sad times to be honest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that would be right can't see us having all 3 plus George Horne (who should be playing more). Pyrgos should be starting for Scotland Team now. Laidlaw is 34 the next world cup and we should be building around Pyrgos/Russell. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
