    Gloucester have started very well.

    This is how Gloucester have been playing most of the season

    Jonny May possible carrying an injury which would be a big loss for Gloucester


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,207 ✭✭✭decisions


    I haven't seen them play at all this season, but to be 5th in the premiership means they must be doing something well.

    What a truly awful decision!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,153 ✭✭✭Glass Prison 1214


    Try for Mike Tindall


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,207 ✭✭✭decisions


    Terrible call from the touch judge.

    And a very easy try is the reward.

    and it leads to a try. terrible call by the AR.

    Wouldn't mind if he went off at all. Get a look at Monahan.


    Gloucester score a try after an absolute joke of a decision from the assistant to call for a penalty.

    His knee looks very heavily strapped, I assume Monahan is IQ?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,207 ✭✭✭decisions


    Brainless!

    He is fully Irish, was in the Leinster academy, moved to Connacht then to the championship before securing a contract at Gloucester. He has been good for them, scored four tries against London Irish earlier in the season.

    Nice try for Biarritz. Crap kick from Gloucester, and crap defence mind.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,207 ✭✭✭decisions


    And another Gloucster yellow. They don't stand a chance.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,207 ✭✭✭decisions


    Majestic little chip, and a brilliant catch for the try.


  • Administrators Posts: 53,553 Admin ✭✭✭✭✭awec


    Referee off injured.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,207 ✭✭✭decisions


    Lacey has done himself and injury. I think both sides will be happy with that.

    The shed certainly like it.

    Pity, I really like how Lacey refs games


  • Administrators Posts: 53,553 Admin ✭✭✭✭✭awec


    Biarritz are battering them here, those yellow cards are really costing Gloucester.

    So do I, he's very clear about what he wants, the players always know what they are going to get and he doesn't take any crap from anybody.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,207 ✭✭✭decisions


    I don't see how Gloucester can come back from 14-27 down.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,101 ✭✭✭Rightwing


    Same old story with Gloucester, flatter to deceive. Must be a horrible team to support.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,218 ✭✭✭ongarite


    WHAT A TRY!!!

    GAME OVER


  • Administrators Posts: 53,553 Admin ✭✭✭✭✭awec


    What a fantastic counter attack that was. Amazing.

    Game over.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,906 ✭✭✭jamiedav2011


    Not much to fear in this for Leinster if we can get past Wasps.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,207 ✭✭✭decisions


    Just when I thought Gloucester could come back into it Biarriz run the length of the pitch.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,207 ✭✭✭decisions


    Gloucester just don't have the execution, they have the potential but they just aren't finishing their chances and the defense leaves something to be desired.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,650 ✭✭✭ssaye


    wingers having loads of fun for Biarritz, the matador step haha

    Another Biarritz try. This game is incredibly one sided, Gloucester have been useless.
