Sam Underhill is the kind of player that makes you glad you no longer play. 😂

No Frizzel either, thats a huge loss.

I don't disagree with Nick regarding the back row. I rationalise it as: England flankers have a very particular job and Hill didn't make the SN squad, so didn't have enough time to get up to speed. Pearson only has two games back, really. But JUSTICE FOR BIG TREV! I'm guessing it's partly set-up, but Pearson looked massive. good interview

So good to have one of the Saints winners, adds to the reality. Congrats on another fine tribute!

Tom's hazy video and unclear sound spoilt the podcast🙆‍♀️

Really good discussion and entertaining exchanges. Enjoyed!

Seriously?

He's the Patrick Kielty of rugby, knows absolutely nothing and just got lucky.

No no, DuPont has been involved in the breakdown and getting turnovers for years for France national team. I clearly remember key plays from him in the recent 6N campaigns . A little more recently with Toulouse , yes maybe

Antoine est tellement humble.Il ne doit pas se rendre compte du genie qu'il est😊 Vraiment un mec hors norme.On a de la chance de l'avoir en France.

Dupont is too strong man, he literally counts for 3 players

Antoine Dupont’s turnovers are an addition he brought from his Rugby 7´s experience.

Courtney Lawes tackle on Bastereaud 2019 6 nations..brilliant

Really good and honest chat on all aspects of the game, especially the scrum half game!

🇿🇦

One of the toughest task in current rugby indeed as he keeps finding ways to hurt other teams on offense, defense, kicking game... the lad is a nightmare to mark and keep quiet.

In your dreams

One ans wera to your question....it s tough😂

To be honest yes, but even Toulouse underachieved

Toulouse meilleur équipe de monde

People keep talking about Leinster players not winning (fair Q) but DuPont & France failed to win a home WC with a very good team. DuPont didn’t swing the game against SA but he has come back with a bang. It was a privilege to see him on Sat but he still hasn’t a WC medal. Satistics are funny Cian Healy has 4 European Cup medals DuPont only 2. Leinster will regroup & will be back. They are just too good. (Looking forward to seeing Barrett play for them & hopefully inject a positive mindset).

The Springboks stopped Du Pont in the RWC 2023 semi's - Just ask them how to do it 🙂

BEST EVER this Guy Du Pont ‼️ MASSIVE…🥂 👊🔥 🪖

if you google rugby champions cup it gives you red and black fireworks and a toulouse logo preety cool

Post game update: you don’t stop Antoine, he stops you 😂

Ben non :))

Are you wearing eyeliner?

If getting into a position to win a Champions Cup final is underachieving, what the hell are all the other teams doing? Where do you even start with that question. Have Toulouse been underachieving, Toulon, Leicester, Saracens. Is the threshold being Champion?

Darcy takes forever to get his point across.

He is just a player he needs clean ball to be effective and Ireland and Leinster have managed him well in the past.

Very exciting prospect so difficult to call. Here's hoping for that 'festival of rugby' as Brendan offers. Enjoy!

Leinster bench is reported to be Healy, Kelleher, Ala'alatoa, Ryan,van der Flier, Conan, McGrath, Frawley. I don't think the Toulouse bench is as good as this. Leinster attack is not clicking like it did last year. Hopefully this game will see it happen.

Bookies favourites Leinster. They also have potentially a better bench than the French. Don’t know what you guys were thinking. I will also point out that both teams were rested last week. Plus Leinster have spanked the French in the last 3 games played

Amen

In all honesty, how many other Premier sides would have put 90 on Gloucester?

oh and love the quote from The Blues Brothers!

Outstanding guest and very well informed discussion. Much compelling data on game time and ball in play time which even hints that the game is moving in the right direction

What an excellent guest JP was, provided excellent insight into the game from the ref's perspective. Less enjoyable was the one rude regular member shouting the guest down about feeding straight into a scrum.

Matt and Austin in the cover photo look like the Communards😂 Great players

Nick is right. Defence beat Northampton. Finn smith said he never experienced Defensive Line speed that before in the Prem.

James Lowe sustained a nasty foot injury during the World Cup although he played on, afterwards it then took months and months of rehab to get fixed so was out of it for a long time. Then he got an eye injury against Scotland and again he was out. Thats the reason for his lack of game time this season.

Good discussion on the Sevens proposition.

Jesus H, I'm only two and half minutes in and already the ignorant dinosaur Chris has already offended. FFS, "the British Islands", No Chris you can't still call it that for over 100 years you total arse!

To call Leinster 'Ireland' is just DUMB

Problem is as a pundit none of you understand the laws. There was no ruck. There was a tackle, the ball is picked up by mitchell andCare comi g from the correct side tackles mitchell. Dixon then asks the assistant referees and the TMO " Ive got a push on a player without the ball. Anybody got anything else?" None of the other 3 did because there wasnt an additional offence. There was no ruck, there were two players lying on the ground. What was the offence you think Care should have been red carded for?

Whos the bald headed beard? Look at his camera, set up so hes lookidown on you

Thumbnailakes them look like a feminine boy band members

The answer is yes!!!

Interesting and engaging chat. Gloucester deserve more!

Like when Ronin O’gara infiltrated the crusaders a couple seasons ago
