Northampton the better team but the French ref did his compatriots no favours whatsoever

Pollock is already the biggest twat in rugby

The referee was Italian, not French.

That explains it even more

Finally a close QF. Toulon and Toulouse tied up 18-18 in the second half.

Toulouse won 21-18.

Poor game under the rain. Toulouse deserved winners though. Without Dupont and Capuozzo, their strike force is not at the same level. These guys make things happen.

3 out of 4 semi-finalists

Better than my UFC predictions 😉

Steve Diamond’s season-ending ban was meted out because he called a group of match‑day officials “fluffybunnies” before telling the television match official he should retire.

Steve Diamond’s season-ending ban was for profanity aimed at match officials

Steve Diamond’s season-ending ban came because he hit out at a group of match-day officials before telling the TMO he should retire

So the deadline has passed with the regions refusing to promise to sign the unknown contracts. What's next do you think? I'm guessing a fudged compromise which in reality is an embarrassing climbdown for the WRU.

I have never seen that before. Marcus Smith hits the post four times and it stays out. Weird.

Worth a chuckle.

That...is a collection of words.

All the local Springboks are back in action in the URC after a long lay off. The URC is a chase for the top 8 business end and Champions Cup 2025/6. Only 8 log points between 5-14 with 3 rounds to go.

'Straight red no hesitation' - Nigel Owens weighs in on Nolann Le Garrec's 'absolutely ridiculous' dive

Nigel Owens slammed Nolann Le Garrec's theatrical, penalty begging dive adding he'd have given him a 'straight red' if he was in charge.

[MiketheSnow]

This is rugby’s moment

If he doesn’t get a ban then we’re football

[reprobate]

@MiketheSnow yep, gotta stamp it out right now.
