Jesus fucking Christ!. That is absolutely appalling.

Christ almighty Glasgow.

It's the guys who should know better who are chucking these passes as well

They aren't even under pressure half the time. They are just throwing brainless passes with zero conviction, and like you say, it's the big names killing us.

Zebre aren't doing it.

[Mark Connolly]

That was better. Simple, accurate passes.

Now secure the kick-off and hoof the fucker down into their half

[GAD]

It really annoys me in rugby how a ref can call tackle and everyone in the defending team has to let go while the attacker is carried forward 10 yards by his teammates.

So close, just couldn't help themselves.

Pointing a blunderbus at the foot every single time they do something competent

[Mark Connolly]

Injury list looks like it will be massive this week.

Hope the medical staff have enough air boots

Couldn't just drop it on the floor like a normal incompetent failing to catch under minimal pressure, he managed to sort of throw it straight to the teammate standing in front of him to win zebre the penalty.

[GAD]

Ref loving this.

[Mark Connolly]

If this isn't a try, it's a penalty try and a yellow card as they hauled the maul down as it hurtled towards the line

[GAD]

I actually think that wasn't a try.

[Mark Connolly]

Another stupid pass

[GAD]

That penalty is a bit unlucky considering it's happened at pretty much every ruck from both teams and that's the first time it's been penalised.

[GAD]

Well, thank f**k for that. Going to have to be so much better or they aren't going much further.

[Mark Connolly]

Hopefully that's the shite performance out of the way before the knockouts

[Mark Connolly]

NZ teams wearing heritage jerseys this weekend. The Hurricanes one looks superb, although the blue on the Highlanders one looks a bit dark. That might just be the rain in Wellington though!

[GordonS]

That's Benetton looking like they've got the job done.

Scottish teams losing form at the decisive point in the season. It's a collective mentality problem. 

[GordonS]

I hope Ospreys finish ahead of Edinburgh because that team deserves nothing.

The SRU need to be ruthless with Edinburgh. They consistently underachieve and you wonder how much of the Scottish mental weakness at international level stems from the poor standards at Edinburgh. Any player with quality thee like Ritchie or Patterson should be looking for the exit and try to emulate Kinghorn. Simply not good enough.

Glasgow too - they nearly sh*t the bed at home against the league's worst team last night and their mad 10 minutes two weeks ago may well have cost them a home semi final. When the big boys really dig deep, neither side has enough of what it takes upstairs to beat them.
