No score in twenty minutes of extra time. So Sharks-Munster goes to penalties.....

[sparky]

A kicking contest is a weird way to settle a Rugby game.

The South Africans have spoiled it with some unsporting antics. No surprise about that.

[Mr Fish]

Premier Sports has shit the bed for me - furious.

[sparky]

The Sharks win the shoot-out 6-4.

But they will be complaints about them shouting at the opposition goalkickers and falling over with "cramp" as the other team's kickers were taking their kicks.

Amazing

Ange, LBB second try, Coleman

[mariner4life]

Ange's try is as good an individual effort as you will see, but i really like that 2nd ABB try. Fuck he is so very good.

Nowell's finish was as good as you would see from an NRL winger who make a living from doing that shit, outrageous put down.
Leyds' probably won't get the recognition it deserves, that was a very nice piece of skill to pull that off in a couple of heartbeats under pressure.

[antipodean]

@MiketheSnow Some bloody good tries in that. Can't help but feel us exporting our IP has been to our detriment somewhat.

Facebook tells me that Toulon has named 12. Nonu 13. Fainga'anuku for this week's game.

Wonder which is supposed to be the rapier?

Better off losing 9 letters

If they’d lost 12 would have sounded like a new Gall bladder medicine

Gall Prem

@Bones I wonder how much the marketing consultants charged for that one?

Total and utter bollocks if you ask me.

Russell is a genius and a reckless knob head.

And after all the waffle about Australasian refs being lax on high shots, it's astonishing watching players target the upper shoulders time after time in the premiership final.

Bath beat Leicester Tigers to end a 29 year wait for the Premiership title. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/articles/cq69edr9r71o

Jordie Barrett scores in the URC final against the Bulls to put Leinster 14-0 up at Croke Park.

Only saw the highlights but is good goal kicking and an intercept enough to justify him being the B&I Lions 10?
