    A highlight of the game: perhaps taking inspiration from England's recent enjoyment of a bout of (alleged) dwarf tossing, Stephen Ferris upped the ante by inventing the new sport of dwarf conkers: pick up a dwarf, and smash him into another dwarf at speed.

    The first two unwilling participants in this new sport were Will Genia and James O'Connor.

    Great moment
    :D

    reminded me of the Munster pack doing something similar to Chabal in the Heineken Cup a few seasons ago against Sale

    Very good. Everyone I've spoken to about he game has remembered Ferris picking up Genia and laughing at it.

    The thing that differentiates a winner and a loser sometimes comes down to their work ethic. Look at how quick Healy is up after tackling Cooper!

    I know, he scrambled like a mad man! One of my favourite moments of the match actually! :)

    its complete rubbish that this was taken off, what harm can a few second of a clip do? if anything its good for the dam sport when people can watch these things and increase the chances of them wanting to watch the games live.
